How on earth do I simply make the video loop so the video will keep continuing to play?? I can't seem to find this anywhere, and it's probably just a simple setting.. Someone please help! Thanks in advance!

At the Video stage, the only way to make it loop is to Copy the Timeline, and Paste it onto the end.

Now, some Video software players DO have a Repeat feature.

For a DVD, the best method is to use Repeat on the DVD player. PrE cannot authoring a looping DVD, but full-featured authoring programs, like Adobe Encore can do that easily with End Actions, where you would set the End Action of your Encore Timeline back to itself. I assume that programs, like Sony's DVD Architect, can do that too, but do not know for certain.

Good luck,

Peru Bob,

Thank you for that. I know that DVD Architect gets mentioned here a lot, but have to admit that I have never used it, since Adobe Encore does all that I want, this side Sonic Scenarist.

One day, I'll buy a copy, and a copy of Steve's book on it, just so that I will know these things for sure.

Appreciated,

Hunt
