    Default Quicktime Video and Projector issue

    Might be a straight forward answer to this one.

    I have three Director Movies containing Quicktime videos that run fine when
    testing.

    However, I also have a Director Movie as a Menu and Navigator which opens
    first.

    If I create the Projector with just the Menu Movie, when I click the link to a
    Movie with quicktime videos in it, the videos are not available or will not
    load.

    However, If I create a projector with the Menu Movie and the Second Movie
    with the Quicktime video, then it all works fine. Seems to be an Xtra required
    for the Menu Movie?

    It is possible to only use the Menu for the projector and still load the
    Videos as it would be a time saver, rather than editing the projector each
    time I adjust the Quicktime Video Movies?

    cheers

    Search the technotes for "Fast Start Projector" and try that, you need to
    have all the Xtras in a folder called "Xtras" in the same folder as your
    projector.
