I have "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer" original DVD but it has no subs, so i tried to put in it some. Here's what i did:

- Ripped to HD with DVD Decrypter (File Mode),
- Used SRT2SUP to convert .srt subs to .sup,
- Demuxed with VobEdit 0.6,
- Muxed .m2v, .ac3 and .sup with IfoEdit 0.96 (DVD Author).

Everything's fine except the movie is constantly breaking while i playback (both with PowerDVD and my DVD player at the living room). The movie kinda jumps or freezes (don't know the correct word) during a second or least and sometimes the video and audio get out of synch. I tried to play the .m2v file after demuxing and it's ok so i suppose the problem is in the muxing. I've done every procedure without even being in the PC, just let it work by itself. I have 1024MB of RAM and "plenty of everything" (processor, disc space, etc), so i don't think it's an hardware issue.

Am i doing this right? Anyone knows what's wrong? Alternative ways of doing it? Changing preferences? Please help :confused: Thanks.

Hi

It could be the quality of your media?

Have you use this media with success before?

Hi,

I mean what type of DVD-R/W or DVD+R/W are you using?

If they are cheap it could be that their quality is low and this is causing the playback problems not the creation process!

I don't even need to burn it to DVD (although i did and the results are the same), cause i playback it on my HD.

You can try some "real" DVD authoring software to mux all your sources together. I guess DVD Lab is freeware for first 30 days. You can give it a try.
