Hi,

I´ve mastered 2 DVD´s using the "VOB Edit / ifoedit / ImgTool"-Method as discribed in Doom9´s guides.

I didn´t use anything fancy:
Just a re-compressed M2V stream of the original DVD, two AC3 streams and the chapter list from the original ifo.

After generating an ISO with ImgTool, I´ve mounted this ISO using the CD daemon. WinDVD played it back fine. I could switch audio channels and
use the chapter points. After this I´ve burned the ISO using DVDDecrypter. I´m using DVDDecrypter all the time (even when mastering
DVD´s from analogue captures with Ulead Moviefactory) as Nero and Moviefactory have often screwed up my DVD-R´s.

My standalone DVD-player just shows "DVD" as media type and doesn´t play
back the movie :(

Has anyone ever experienced the same problems ?

Please note that all used streams are perfectly DVD compliant. Movie is PAL 16:9 and the AC3 streams are the original one from the "source" DVD. I know that a PC with DVD Player is the most flexible device when it comes to MPEG stuff on CD/DVD but from my point of view this DVD should run perfectly. I´m also using the latest versions for all tools (at least I´ve downloaded them from the links provided in Doom9´s guide).

Thanks in advance,
D$

Edit: I´ve just read something about "remuxing CCE m2v files with IFOEdit". Actually I use CCE to re-encode but I did a completely new IFO-file. So this shouldn´t be a problem, or ?

I had something like that with a miniDVD, because I
forgot to "get VTS sectors" before burning.

Thanks once again,
