Jump to the beginning of a movie in DVD Player

I hate all the copyright stuff and other unimportant notices on DVDs. When I launch DVD Player, I like to jump straight to the film. So I find the following AppleScript to be awfully useful for me.

tell application "DVD Player" to activate
my quickstart()

on quickstart()
  tell application "DVD Player"
    set time_left to the remaining time
    if (time_left < 1500) then
      set elapsed time to 1500
      delay 1
      press enter key
      my quickstart()
    end if
  end tell
end quickstart
