| Normally, a movie or scene plays its frames and finishes, moving on to the next scene or returning to the menu. However, you can opt to loop a movie so that once started it will replay until you intervene. To loop a movie: 1. | Click the Map button to switch to the Map view. | 2. | Select a movie file. | 3. | Choose Loop Movie from the Advanced menu. A loop icon appears on the movie clip (Figure 21.23). Figure 21.23. A loop icon in the Map view indicates that a movie will replay once it reaches its end. |
Tips | | When you loop a movie chapter that's part of a larger movie, all of its chapters include the loop icon and the entire movie loops, not an individual chapter. This may be too obvious, but never loop an AutoPlay movie. If you do, the DVD will never proceed to the main menu. Did I say never? Looping the AutoPlay movie might be what you want if you're creating a video that needs to keep playing in a kiosk mode (such as for a convention booth, art installation, or other presentation).
