Creating the First Play
The First Play is an instruction that tells the DVD player to display a particular
movie or menu automatically when the disc is inserted.
You create the First Play by dragging a video, still, or menu background into the
placeholder above the movie/menu list. This placeholder does not contain a movie
or menu; it simply indicates which movie or menu is the First Play, rather like an
alias or shortcut to a file in Windows. You can change the First Play contents and
even delete it without affecting the real movie/menu. (If a disc does not have the
First Play instruction, nothing happens when you insert the disc in a player; you
must press the remote control buttons to start playing the disc.)
