I have tried this 3 times now on my Prestige with S.E. v9.1 and Arabesk 4.1e. I have two, one hour plays. The school wants them both on one disc. I edit and output the first play and make a start button the "menu" When I add the second play on the same menu it looks fine but the chapters don't work. Every time I hit the "next chapter" button, the video starts over from the beginning. It does the same thing if I go to the menu and select a scene, any chapter I select starts the show at the beginning.
It only happens to the second show I add. I have tried this 3 times and in different orders. Each time the first play I add works fine and the second keeps starting over at the very beginning with ANY chapter buttons from that movie.
Arg! :x

What version of ARABESK?


I see you have 4.1E Bogart as the OS. Try 4.1G-very stable.

I think he's on Smart Edit as opposed to Bogart, v9.1, Lou.

Did you use the "Assistant" when adding the films or did you do it yourself ?

Are you certain you actually edited (created) a Chapter Menu with chapters for your two separate films? If no, that would give you the result you explained... in essence a 1-chapter film. And when you tell it to go to the Next Chapter it is, but there is only one so it starts over again.

Just a thought - without seeing your project.
