HI,
Thanks to those who helped with this.
After much experimentation, I've discovered that I can move through my Walk at
Home dvd by using the go menu, and selecting title. The titles are numbered.
After inserting the dvd and pressing enter a few times, the dvd started at the
beginning. Then I went to the go menu and selected title, and was able to move
through the episodes on the DVD. I didn't have any success with the chapter
menu though. This was using Snow leopard with the builtin dvd player.
Regards
Amanda
