VobBlanker 2.0.0.2 released

[CoNS]

Humm, that's nothing! I've recently been mistaken for a troll... CoNS... Shrek... oh, well!!

[blutach]

Let it go CoNS. zacoz - I truly feel sorry for you mate. Getting turfed out

Regards

[CoNS]

Well, I am letting it go. My last post was meant to be a joke, hence the smiley, but it's still early here in Denmark, so my humour may be slightly twisted...!

EDIT: BTW, blutach, being one of them helpful AND highly skilled fellas around here, do you know the answer to the question I posted here, about IfoUpdate vs. VobBlanker's Replace PGC function?

Also, you may have missed my question in this post (and the following posts), which were directed to you some days ago about your observations regarding the mock strip feature of IfoEdit and VobBlanker respectively...?

[blutach]

I'll look into those posts CoNS.

PS You hear it is one of your countrymen who is spoofing Lightning UK! and asking for $$$. As I regard Denmark and Australia now as "relatives by marriage", this is bad news indeed.

Regards

[blutach]

Sorry CoNS - I know nothing of IfoUpdate Other questions answered

I think so, too.
But both are very useful, so usually use both case by case.

Nice to meet you - your comments have been very interesting. And please no more apologies about your English - it is perfectly underdstandable, OK?

Thank you for saying like this.
Actually, I was irresolute about whether post to this forum.
And then, now, it thinks that it was good.

Hehe, well, I can't vouch for the honesty of all of my 5.4 million countrymen! What about John Raymond Travers and other Australian outlaws?!

No, I didn't hear that story. Spoofing in what way? Was the whole infringement/cease and desist/legal thing a setup in order to get money from LUK? Or is it this site you mean?

[blutach]

Never heard of that particular gent. BUt please do not take my comments as negative, only that I regard us as close "cousins" now.

And yes, that's the site. It is a hoax. You can even do a whereis on the site and it leads back to a person who didn't even bother to cloak himself.

Lol, yeah, I realize that... Didn't know you were that much into the royal stuff, though!? Because of the queen's birthday yesterday?!!

[blutach]

Must have been - we took a day off anyway, so gotta love her maj. And the whole of Oz seems to love your princess. Later.

@blutach,
thanks for answering the users questions

@CoNS

.. about IfoUpdate vs. VobBlanker's Replace PGC function?

I'm not an expert in IFOUpdate, I used it in the ast but not now... IIRC, when you have more than one PGC in the VOB you have to use "Adjusted Cells mode"
BTW, I can add the option to copy the sub color palete from the replacing PGC. Not difficul, but in any case as an option, because replace feature can be used to replace the PGC with a new one created by IFOEdit/Muxman remuxing the original subs/audio with a re-encoded video/audio

About mock strip differences between VobBlanker and IFOedit, you have already found the answer in

They don't need. They smile at the geek to get him to fix their DVD, and then turn around and marry the football player anyways.

Have you seen Beauty and the Geek reality show where the beauty teach the geek social skills and the geek teach the beauty intellectual skills? These hard-core geeks with a high IQ and SAT score of 1600+ have never even touch a girl's hand, let alone a date. I laughed when one of the beauty said her IQ is 300 and can't even pass 5th grade spelling, and the geek used his knuckles to massage the beauty. Beauty & geek are paired together in 6 pairs. Final pair wins $250,000. ok, enough chit chat.

[blutach]

Well at least one pair of them can't be that stupid - $250,000 sounds good 2 me

An option for this (default off) would be perfect...

Also, in order for the first option to make sense, could you add an option for copying the subtitle (and audio?) stream attributes, too, from the replacement PGC into the old DVD structure? (like the "Copy audio and subpicture tables" option in IfoUpdate, see this screenshot)

3. Run the lot through VobBlanker again to correct the pointers (blank nothing, just do process - this is the same as mock stripping). This should also correct the times of the PGCs, but if it doesn't open each PGC in the PGC Editor of PgcEdit and answer yes when PgcEdit warns you the times are not right. Save and you are finished.

I posted to introduce your method in BBS of Japan.
And I received the suggestion modifying you method.
Both step 1 and 2 can be processsd more simply by the function of PgcEdit 'create a new blank VOB Cell'.
It is need only to set about the cell even though it is reused at after PGC.
Only selected cell becomes to blank cell (new V/C-ID), and other reused cells remain originally.
There is no change to need step 3.

@jsoto
1. I attach the printscreen with runned away buttons. It occurs when I try to resize window or after minimize/restore sequence.
2. Can you add feature to replace audio/subtitles (as it done with cells)?
3. How about to merge AddChapter with VobBlanker?
4. Can you add feature to cut cells not with slider [sector(lba)] that skip intermediate means, but by frame (maybe with slider at bottom)?
5. When audio duration more then video and I cut from last possible with slider sector (lba) to [Last], VB cuts about 1 sec of video and tail of audio that haven't video. Can I cut only redundant audio and keep full video?

Strange... Seems there is a bug in the resizing procedure, but I'm unable to reproduce the problem...

2. Can you add feature to replace audio/subtitles (as it done with cells)?

No, this feature is quite similar to do a muxer and its not easy.

3. How about to merge AddChapter with VobBlanker?

Well, I had in plan to split a cell in two parts, but I'm really busy lately..

4. Can you add feature to cut cells not with slider [sector(lba)] that skip intermediate means, but by frame (maybe with slider at bottom)?

VobBlanker is able to cut VOBU by VOBU, that means, in an I-Frame, but not in a B or P frame, in the middle of a GOP. (very difficult to do, BTW)

5. When audio duration more then video and I cut from last possible with slider sector (lba) to [Last], VB cuts about 1 sec of video and tail of audio that haven't video. Can I cut only redundant audio and keep full video?

Not sure if it already does it...After drag the slider, use Next and Prev buttons to go to the last VOBU and be sure to be there before set the ending mark.
