Question re: 30 shred dvd

So I don't use our DVD player that much and have a probably silly question. When you play the 30 shred dvd, how do you get it go directly to the menu rather than playing all of the pre-stuff first. Like the ad for the biggest loser and stuff like that. I can forward through the biggest loser stuff but the other stuff you can't. Is there a way when I turn on the dvd player and tv that I can make it go straight to the menu where I pick workout?

Thanks,
Tracey

    No, what I do is turn the dvd player on and then go get my sneakers on and set up my mat, by the time Jillian is done rambling, I am ready to workout, Hope this helps :)

    That is exactly what I do as well. I don't think you can bypass the intro :(

    The search button works for me. Or if I am not quite ready, I do what a previous member said and pop in the DVD, then get my shoes on, my water bottle ready and when I'm done it's at the menu and ready for me.

    Same here. I have tried to bypass the intro so many times...I love Jillian, but come on "Enough Talk!!".

    You can skip the Biggest Loser ads by hitting "menu" once they start to play. However, you can't skip past Jillian's little intro before you pick your workout. I do what the previous poster said and start the DVD, then get my shoes on, get my water ready, whatever. I do find it annoying that you can't go straight to the workout...

    I don't think you can skip straight to the main menu. So I've done the same as the others and get my shoes & all while the pre-menu stuff is going on.

    Yep, turn it on. Get your water, towel, eat half a banana (lol), then start. :tongue:

    I stop the dvd before the end of the cool down so I can just skip back to the beginning of the work out, although that only works because hubby and I don't watch many dvds and when his kids come over they have dvd players in their bedrooms to get round the problem of them not wanting to watch the same movie!

    Thanks everyone! I just thought it was something I didn't know about...guess not. Since I try and work out as soon as I get home from work (or else I wouldn't do it!) I guess I could just turn it on as soon as I walk in the door and then it would stop at the menu thing automatically and be ready for me to get started.
