I remember when you initially added this feature in PgcEdit that you said that it shouldn't be neccessary to use in all "normal" situations?

@CoNS

Read this for an explanation of why this is a good thing. The ISOs stick around for a few minutes only, till your disk is burned and tested.

I bet it's the family (read: The missus!) demanding some attention. It's a classic, and there's NO workaround in the end

lark · 22nd April 2005, 16:17

and if r0lZ really wants to give us a new relese, here are some of my wishes ;-)

now that almost everything is possible (after i learned from the other thread that i can delete a pgc), would it be possible to create a cell into a pgc? i know it's easy to remove one, but how can i create one?
i can also make a pgc dummy, but how do i convert a dummy pgc to be one that contains some video (& audio)? obviously "new play all title" can do something similar for VTSTs, but how about VTSMs?

another nice feature would be replace pgc or copy pgc over an existing pgc. clone almost does it, but it adds the pgc always to the end.

we already have the delete all commands in the edit menu and in the popup menu that comes from the commands window. would it possible to have it also in the popup menu that comes from the pgc (leftmost) window?

and finally, what i perhaps miss the most is mapping of enter to the ok button in many dialogs (e.g. remove cell).

Although released yesterday around midnight, the last version is dated April 22, 2005. It's today!

whoopie I know this one!

@Lark:

"i can also make a pgc dummy, but how do i convert a dummy pgc to be one that contains some video (& audio)?"

Create that lucky dummy #7 in PgcEdit, exit and go to VobBlanker and replace the dummy with your "I'll be back, hasta whatever" clip.

Yes?

lark · 22nd April 2005, 17:11

yep, i know that one, but i'd like to do 'everything' in pgcedit.

You may use Clone PGC or Play All PGC, and remove the unwanted cells and chapters. However, as you said, it's always created at the end of the titleset. That's needed to avoid the necessity to edit all commands pointing to the follownig PGCs (because the PGC number will be increaded).

Create cell: Not now. I want to rewrite the whole PgcEditor, or at least the cell list. Things will much more easier for me later.

Delete All Commands popup menu in PGC Selector. Yes, it's easy. But I don't like to put potentially dangerous commands everywhere.

OK buttons and Enter key. Difficult. I may add an option to automatically select the OK button with the space bar, but it is not possible to automate this task for all requesters. I need some time...

r0lZ · 23rd April 2005, 01:10

PgcEdit 0.5.6 beta 1 available.

Added the command "Delete All Commands in PGC" in the PGC Selector popup menu.
Added the utility "Delete All Commands in Domain", also available in the PGC Selector popup menu.
Added the function "Delete All Commands in DVD", available only by right-clicking on an empty line in the PGC Selector.
Added the utility "Blank out all Title PGCs in DVD", that calls the "Blank Out All PGCs in Domain" utility in sequence for all title domains.
Added an option to change the default colors of the GUI, requested by a Linux user.

@blutach: Version date is April, 23, 2005. Still one version per day!

jeanl · 23rd April 2005, 01:26

r0lZ,
What's the use of " Added the utility "Blank out all Title PGCs in DVD", that calls the "Blank Out All PGCs in Domain" utility in sequence for all title domains." ?
jeanl
EDIT: Ooops! I just saw that you answered my question in the other thread! GREAT! Answer is: you have to confirm for each VTS, so you can skip any VTS you don't want to blank... Just what I needed!

Just what I need too jean!

And the betas are only on the videohelp mirror - the tiscali site should be replaced by the videohelp one in your favourites.

@r0lZ - thanks for implementing blank out all titles and the new beta - looking forward to B2 tomorrow.

Yes, the homepage at tiscali.be is limitted in size, and is not verry reliable, especially since Tiscali has been sold to Scarlet. Furthermore, the Tiscali URL may change in the future.
I have just swapped the Tiscali and VideoHelp links order in my signature. I consider now that VideoHelp is the main site, and Tiscali the mirror.
Please update your bookmarks!

I have been stripping VOB-ID's using IfoEdit for years. Recently, I used PgcEdit to blank menus and have been very impressed. This got me wondering if I could blank portions of titlesets with PgcEdit.

Example: Say you have 3 episodes (VOB-ID 1, VOB-ID 2, VOB-ID 3) in the following files:
VTS_01_1.VOB
VTS_01_2.VOB
VTS_01_3.VOB
VTS_01_4.VOB
VTS_01_5.VOB
VTS_01_6.VOB

Can I use PgcEdit to blank VOB-ID 2, thus reducing the files to:
VTS_01_1.VOB
VTS_01_2.VOB
VTS_01_3.VOB
VTS_01_4.VOB

jeanl · 25th April 2005, 19:10

You can probably kill the playback of that episode, but that won't free any space on the DVD. That's a job for vobblanker...
