 Your DVD videos are listed like any other video in Mezzmo.  You can right-click on the video in Mezzmo and click **Properties** to display the **Properties dialog**.  This lets you edit the text metadata and artwork assigned to the DVD video.
+===== Fixing fast forward and seek problems when playing DVD videos =====
+If your DVD rip video does not contain a correct timeline, then when playing it on a device you may not be able to seek or fast forward through the video during playback.
+To correct this problem, you can use the **Generate Timeline For Invalid DVD-rip** button on the **Properties dialog (Video tab)**.
+By clicking this button, Mezzmo will analyze your DVD rip video and create a timeline file. Mezzmo will analyze the video from start-to-finish and try to create a correct timeline. For a full-length movie, this analysis may take several minutes. In most cases, the new Mezzmo-created timeline file will fix (or vastly improve) the bad timeline from the original DVD rip.
+**Tip:** You can select multiple DVD videos and display the Properties dialog and click this button to process multiple video files at the same time. Press **ESC** key on your keyboard to cancel processing the next selected file.
