How to find out which Title and Title Set is for Widescreen/Fullscreen

How to find out which Title and Title Set is for Widescreen/Fullscreen
Courtesy of 2CL

This is a common question asked by newbies when they encounter a DVD containing both widescreen and fullscreen movies. I understand that IFoedit may be difficult to understand initially so I wanted to show you a generic guide on how to find out which Title is for a certain display aspect ratio (DAR) and which Title Set it resides in.

The easiest way for you, as a newbie, to find out which is widescreen or fullscreen is to play the DVD in IFOedit. Open any IFO and press DVD-Play to preview the movie. Prior to either version is going to play, you will be presented with your aspect ratio selection menu for you to choose widescreen or fullscreen. Note: There maybe cases in which the aspect ratio menu does not appear and that it plays a certain format as default. You would have your option to change format in a settings menu. Whichever you select, when the movie plays, look in IFOedit’s DVD Play Panel below. There’s a status window. Your Title number will be displaying. Remember it or write it down. Now that you got your Title number, go to your VIDEO_TS.IFO / VMG Overview / Number of Title Play Maps. On the same line of the Title you got in Status Panel, you will have your Title set number following it, e.g. VTS_01_* .
