DVD Tricks

Feb-03 » Filed Under: Technology » Posted by: Todd

Do you ever get really annoyed when you can't fast-forward through the FBI warnings/previews on DVDs? Why do they trap you like that? I recently read of a hack to bypass all of that junk and proceed directly to the main menu. When the DVD starts playing hit the stop button once, then hit the menu button (or whatever it's called on your remote). If that doesn't work, hit stop twice, then hit the menu button. This trick has only failed to work once for me.

I've tried this as well and love it. It's highly important when your almost 2 year old is anxiously awaiting Elmo (and on the verge of a breakdown) and you can't seem to get the video on fast enough.
