InterActual features[]

InterActual Animatrix

The InterActual Player features screen

Disc Seven: The Animatrix contains the InterActual Player features of the original Animatrix DVD, rather than the features of the other nine discs in the Ultimate Matrix Collection.

It has a generic Warner Bros. player skin, with a bar of links at the bottom, below the film. The links are visible by default when watching the DVD, but can be minimised within the player by clicking on the arrow to the left of the links.

Once a link was clicked, the film was paused, and a screen showing the Warner Brothers logo with "Click Here to Return to Movie" underneath was displayed (which when clicked restarted the DVD from the Warner Bros. opening sequence), with the links still below. This screen was also accessible either from InterActual Player's View Content feature (which can be the default startup option, but can also be accessed by the View Content button) or through the "BONUS_DATA" > "GO FURTHER DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE... PLUG DISC INTO YOUR DVD-ROM DRIVE." menu options.
