Flash Gordon DVD has all 12 episodes in one "segment," each separated by a
fade-to-black. I need the option of selecting a particular episode if I'm to
start showing one each MoM meeting. Otherwise, one day I will have to
fast-forward quite a bit to get to episode #8, or whatever - not cool.
Let me see what else I've got available. I've got a ton of stuff like that so I
will come up with something that runs for about 30 minutes. I've even got more
recent (like late 1940s!) Flash Gordon DVDs, which just may have the episodes
separated...
