DVDSP Authoring for TOUCHSCREENs and KIOSKS

How can you best use DVD with a touchscreen kiosk?
Understanding what's happening it a good way to start.
Traditional DVDs expect you will SELECT a DVD menu button first,
and then execute the button command by hitting the ENTER
key on the DVD remote.

Obviously, there's no remote control on a touchscreen!
What to do? Don't panic!
in the BUTTON PROPERTIES in DVD studio Pro
there's a magical property called AUTO-ACTION.

Auto Action in the Button Properties

Setting this property for your kiosk DVD means all
buttons so selected will activate IMMEDIATELY,
as soon as they are selected, instead of waiting
until the ENTER KEY is pressed. Remember,
there usually ISN'T an ENTER KEY on a kiosk!

I know you'll you have fun with this one!
