about to go insane... need some help removing Copyrights

[destemido]

i'm currently working on starwars ep1 and 2 but since the same situation applies for both...
i wan't to remove the copyfights, but i want to keep the "starwars episode 1 " short movie that comes right after the copy's.
I can make the movie go the main menu... which starts with a ship moving tohards (don't mind the spelling)a planet and there you go... the main menu...
i tried many things which led to illegal navigations but i was never able to make that part short movie play.
when i press the play dvd in ifoedit, it tells me it is playing a Title set menu... meaning it is playing something inside VTS_01_0.VOB
of course i know that because i "split" that file by Vob ID in vobedit and the movie i want Has VOD ID1
i'm able to follow the progress of the disc until the copy's screens
which are located in the angle menu, in the main movie title set ??????????? go figure...
:rolleyes:
how do i know what come after that??? since it a pre command i don't have a clue to where the navigation is going after that...
i really need help on this one... because i really don't what the annoying copy's :devil:

EDIT:
Damn... no wonder no1 answers... what a shitty level of english...
it's a bit better now... it was missing a couple of comas and periods... :D :D :D

i think i know a way, even though i'm creating the whole thing from scratch in maestro.
i think if i create a new vob with just a black image and add it to video_ts.vob (thats where the copy's are located) then i can strip all but that vob id... i can do it right now as all the vob id's have a copyright screen...

Unfortunately I don't have these movies. :(
However, if I'd correctly understand your post, you have followed the navigation command until the angle menu.
It's not clear at this point what happens and what you would like to happen: have you a menu in which, when you press "play movie", you get immediately the copyright message and then something you want to keep?
If so you should:
-search which is the VOB-ID of the menu
-look at the command that is executed upon the button selection (Set GPreg, Jump to VMG PGC, Jump to Title, Calls, Link to PGC)
-replace the commands in the target link to something more useful.

Keep in mind that:
- If there is a Set Gpreg command then there must be a series of Cmp instructions to set the navigation path so you can easily modify this sequence;
- If there is a LinkPGCN probably in this PGC you can find at least a Post command to play the subsequent movie. In this case you can notice that the VOB-ID of the referred PCG (at the end of the PGC menu section) IS the VOB-ID of the copyright message, so you can replace the Post command with a Pre command and in this way the message is never shown.

Unfortunately it's hard to give you an advice without having the DVD structure on hand, but if you post more details, maybe I could help you more.

Bye.
