If you press button "2" and Chapter number is more than 1 (2, 3, ...) - it will not do anything.
It will not stuck. I was wrong - it shows red warning at the EndAction, where this is dangerous. On a regular button you can just ignore this (blue notice is just a notice).

I apologize, but I'm a bit confused on the wording. Did I put the switch/ (prev chapter) in the wrong spot. Just wanna make sure that everything will work.

You screenshot says:
- when the user presses button "2" on the remote control: if the current chapter is below 2 -> Jump to the MAIN MENU
- when the user presses button "3" on the remote control: jump to the previous chapter
I don't know what you're trying to do.

I'm trying to have it when *prev chapter* is selected on the first page of the slideshow, it jumps to the main menu/if the current chapter is below 2 -> Jump to the MAIN MENU. Otherwise, it will do previous chapter normal. I guess I'm not sure where to places these commands, I've been reading the help guide but I can't seem to find it.

Your commands should be in one SWITCH - not in the separate commands. You should create this SWITCH where you want it to execute.

They are no longer in separate commands. I want this to be executed in the Art Gallery Slideshow, so where would I put it to execute it? Because the only spots I see I can put the SWITCH in, is the Action MAtrix's Remote Control.

It does not make sense to "executed in the Art Gallery Slideshow". I guess, it should execute when you press a button - which button?
If this is a button on the screen - you should add a popup menu to this movie, enable "Autoshow popup" for this movie, and assign an action to the appropriate button.
If this is Next/Prev buttons - you can't do it directly. The right way is to use several JARs (where one JAR will be interactive) or Two/Three titles modes.

Initially there were no buttons on the screen. I've created the popup menu, creating buttons, The left button is now "if Chapter in Slideshow = 0,1 -> Jump MENU ...[prev chapter]" when pressing enter and right will be "next chapter". I can't find in the manual where I add the popup menu to the Art Gallery movie. If 'm doing this wrong, how would I do the Jar methods you've mentioned. I know where the JAR menu is and have read the help guide, just not sure how it would be implemented.
