    Why is the button sub-picture on all the time?

    "JP" Community Member

      I have been told to create a menu with just one button on it... PLAY.

      Don't ask me why. I think it is weird too...

       

      I insert the DVD in the player, menu appears, and, a fraction of a second later, the sub-picture comes on.
      Same thing happens in PREVIEW and on an actual burned DVD.

       

      "Automatically Route Buttons" is OFF.

      "Default Button" is set to NONE.

       

      It is just a small annoyance, but I'd like the user to see the sub-picture go on and off as they move the cursor.

       

      Anybody have any idea what I can do?

          When you have one button, it is the default. And it is always "selected," because there is no other button. On a two button menu, the selection doesn 't ever go off, it goes from one to the other.

           

          You could make an invisible button, set it so no highlights ever show, and make it the default.

           

          But as soon as your button get selected, it won't go back "off" until the other button is selected.

           

          Remember too that cursor movement (i.e. mouse over effect) is only on the computer; on a TV, the remotes moves to the options.

            OK
            Thanks. This is exactly what I needed to know. Otherwise, I'd just keep trying to figure out what I'd done incorrectly.

             

            Thanks,
