Re: I must be getting older... Most DVD players have a button on the remote control labeled "Title" or "Disk Menu" or similar which will enable you to skip the DVD previews before watching the film. |

These newer DVDs have those features locked-out so you can't skip the promotional materials. Even the FF button is disabled by the DVD programming. Really crappy idea. |

San Francisco, CA | Try renting the recent Sherlock Holmes - even the reviews on Netflix are populated with complaints. Here comes the "future"...
I've tried it on a number of DVD systems, including Windows 7 Media Center. |
