Hi,

I'm using the DVD player that is part of Snow Leopard, but can't seem to find a 
way to switch between different episodes of Corner Gas on my DVD.  I tried 
going into the menus, and they look promising... there are menus for 
"Controls", and "Go", but I can't get these menus to open.  If I press VO down 
arrow, the Apple menu opens rather than the menu I am currently sitting on.  Is 
the DVD player that comes with Snow Leopard at all accessible?  If not, is 
there a DVD player that works well with VO and allows one to choose episodes of 
a program from a menu, or at least to switch between episodes?

Thanks,

Russell
