Okay, here is the scenario:

I have a VTS containing 4 PGCs each with 2 chapters a piece, the first chapter containing multiple cells and the second
chapter is simply a 15 frame layer break. To clarify I have attatched a sample from my PGC.

The problem I am running into is with the navgational slider in PowerDVD and WinDVD (the scroll bars that allow you to
jump to a specific part of the movie). When I attempt to use the scroll bar and select a scene in my movie, the bar
instead snaps onto the nearest cell position, and not the position I tell it to. For example, say I am attempting to
browse to a scene 15 minutes into the movie with the navigational bar, instead I am snapped to Cell 02 at 13:03 instead of
the postion I want in the movie.

This may perhaps be a bug with IFOUpdate. Originally, when I first tried to author this DVD I was using v0.67 and the
navigational bar performed exactly as I explained above in all parts of the movie. With your latest version of IFOUpdate (v0.69), I attempted a reauthor and I noticed that inbetween a few of my cells, the navigational slider DIDindeed work, yet for a majority of the movie (98%) it still performed the same. Perhaps IFOUpdate is missing something?

This is purely speculation as it could instead be a silly error I am missing or something I am forgetting to do. Anyone
have any ideas as to why the navigational slider would not work and how to fix it?

Did you have the flag checked to copy the VTS_TMAPTI table? That option was added to fix this problem. It's interesting as it only seems be a problem when using software players.

Ah, yes, yes I did, except when I attempted to do that, I had an error that said VTS_TMAPTI too large to copy and it didn't copy it. Any further ideas?
