I have to let this 30mb file alive or to remux it with the other blank.m2v file? But... something is telling me that it's not a good way what i did... ps: with previous test (Ghost ) I had no prob. When I click on a "stripped part" the PowerDVD menu plays 1 sec and than It returns to the previous status. With JAWS 2 I can see a black screen on "stripped" titles BUT it doesn't takes 1 sec and back to previous: here I need to go back to movie with the remote.

yes and no
I would remux the original VOB's with the blank first then remove VOB ID's after and finally inserting a dummy program cell use guide 5 first and use the original VOB's and remux the blank .m2v file into it which will shrink it in size considerably then if you have a fussy player use guide 7, remove all the VOB ID's apart from 7 and insert dummies then you will be left with a small VOB file of under 1MB if you feel lucky you can remove just the VOB ID's tho inserting the dummies may be a better option, it's upto you that's the way I would do it to get a small blank VOB file but still maintain a working structure sounds confusing but get's easy once you've done it a few times and there's actually a few methods to use and my guides don't cover every individual example so you have to mix n match them. I need guides for my guides hope this helps and just ask if you get stuck again cos it is confusing sometimes |

25/03/2003 18.12 1.073.704.960 VTS_03_1.VOB 25/03/2003 18.14 1.073.436.672 VTS_03_2.VOB 25/03/2003 18.15 374.386.688 VTS_03_3.VOB Using guide n.5 with "Ghost" I did it perfectly from this structure: Code:
25/07/2001 12.41 178.176 VTS_02_0.VOB 25/07/2001 12.41 158.889.984 VTS_02_1.VOB In the VTS_03_1.VOB case I used guide n.3 because the guide n.7 wasn't already done... ehhehehe, u lazy guide maker I'll try the new section of the awesome guide collection site |

what methods have you tried and what exactly are you trying to do?
don't give up cos it's simple when you understand how so that's why I'll try and help you basically all you need to do is strip all the VOB ID's apart from one then REMUX the blank .m2V file. I'm not sure you can replace the VOB then stick in the dummy cells in each PGC that will all point to the VOB ID you kept which will be number 1 Last edited by MackemX; 27th March 2003 at 15:16. |

In this case what I have to do in order to have, like in the previous example, a simple empty vob that doesent affect the usability of the menu (no crash or no long blank periods @ stripped extras)??? I've tried to remove all vob-ids except one, but... then? Gotta a file, obiously small, but that contains something I don't want (trailer or something other...). How can I give a kick to it? Now I'm too confused... I've tried several times your awesome guides but, since I'm a newbie here, I've lost myself into the maze of the .ifo's structure. I've stripped/encoded 1 dvd with no problems: fully working menu with only 1 second blank screen for each stripped extra. I've stripped/encoded another dvd that -dunno why- contains long time black screen into the stripped extras: I've to use the remote to return to the main menu while with the previous dvd it's all automatic (no extra found = back to menu). Another question: is better to edit the .ifo/.vob file BEFORE using ic7 or AFTER it? btw, first of all sorry for my "desperate" english and, more important, a BIIIIIIIIIIG thx for all your help!!! |

you have done the right things with the multi pgc with NO layer break between cells and no cell "to be used" and stripped all but VOB ID 7 but now you replace that new smaller VOB over the original VOB and use Ifoupdate. Then you must manually insert 6 cells into each PGC all pointing to the new VOB ID 1 of 1.00 second
if you read Guide # 7 this will explain it all and how to do it just ask if you don't fully understand but once you have dome it it's easy you should always end up having an ifo looking like this if you strip everthing from a PGC. The PGC should have a 1 second entry pointing to the blank file VOB ID Code:

mmm... do u mean I have to take the new (35.549.184) VTS_03_1.VOB and copy it on the original one OR i have to take your VTS_0x_1.VOB and put it over the new authored VTS_03_1.VOB? |

my fault
I thought you had a 1 sec file but now I see it 1 minute there are a few ways to do it and this is one strip 7 of the 8 VOB ID's leaving just one, use IFOUpdate and manually insert the program/cell entries into the other 8 PGC's all pointing to VOB ID 1. Guide 7 shows you how to do all this then use Guide 5 to replace the VOB with the small one from the guide and fix the IFO then finally open the IFO and Get VTS sectors to fix it all hope this helps |

Hey, how about a bump??!
Ok... I've been stripping titles left and right thanks to MackemX's guides, but now I've got one of these advanced ones, and have a few questions / comments. Here's what I got: Code:
PGC_1 (program chain): [Title(TTN): 1] [00:12:52.05 / 30 fps] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 1) [Ch 01] [Pg 01] [Cell 01] [V/C Id: 1/ 1] : time: 00:12:52.05 / 30 fps [Pos: 00:12:52.05] [Frames: 23165] PGC_2 (program chain): [Title(TTN): 2] [00:22:47.20 / 30 fps] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 2) [Ch 01] [Pg 01] [Cell 01] [V/C Id: 2/ 1] : time: 00:22:47.20 / 30 fps [Pos: 00:22:47.20] [Frames: 41030] Anyway, I was messing around with IFOEdit v0.95 and stumbled onto something. Here's what I did:[list=1][*]I went into VTS_PGC_2 under the VTS_PGCITI table for VTS_02_0.IFO (title set that these titles are in)[*]I scrolled down to the bottom where the section "Cell Position in VOB:" begins.[*]I changed "Cell_1: has VOB ID" from 2 to 1, and saved the IFO file.[*]Then I applied MackemX procedure #5, replacing the VOB(s) with the blank VOB, and Re-Mux'd the VOB.[/list=1] Here's what resulted: Code:
PGC_1 (program chain): [Title(TTN): 1] [00:00:00.25 / 30 fps] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 1) [Ch 01] [Pg 01] [Cell 01] [V/C Id: 1/ 1] : time: 00:00:01.00 / 25 fps [Pos: 00:00:01.00] [Frames: 25] PGC_2 (program chain): [Title(TTN): 2] [00:00:00.25 / 30 fps] (Programs: 1) (Cells: 1) (uses VOB-IDs: 1) [Ch 01] [Pg 01] [Cell 01] [V/C Id: 1/ 1] : time: 00:00:01.00 / 25 fps [Pos: 00:00:01.00] [Frames: 25] While you ponder that...now I have to go give Procedure #7 another whack with a titleset that has some VOB-IDs I do want to keep, but is structured like the above.

PGC_5 (program chain): [Title(TTN): 5] [00:00:00.00 / 30 fps] (Programs: 0) (Cells: 0) Can't stay in this state though, right? Maybe cause navigation problems? Then, I did that IFOUpdate thing and I got this whacked IFO; I dumped it to a text file and it was like a 100K larger than the backup!! Wouldn't read in DVD Shrink, either. Anyways, I tried something different...this time going after PGC_s 5-8, doing something kind of like in my previous message above. I started fresh and went into the VTS_PGCITI table and changed all of them to have the "Cell_1: has VOB ID" to VOB-ID 1 (splash segment). I also changed in the individual VTS_PGC_s the "Playback time" to 82. THEN, I used the IFOEdit VOB Extras and stripped out the VOB-IDs that were being used by PGC_s 5-8 (VOB-IDs 6-9). The resultant files loaded up without fault in DVD Shrink and InstantCopy. The VOB Extras function reset the Playback times to that of PGC_2 (VOB-ID 1), but I figure I can go into the indivual PGC_ structures and set those to 82, as in the procedure. What do you guys think? Also, is this in the right forum?!! |

I would also like an answer to this question. I followed guide #7 and the ifo was screwed up. The dvd chapters were messed up in the menu, and the audio was missing on some tracks only AFTER i had used ifoupdate, it worked fine before using ifoupdate.

@JFerguson
I just recently posted this guide for partially blanking out Titlesets with Multiple PGCs. Can you try it out for me on your movie? You'll still have a valid DVD structure.

@2COOL, I tried splitting VOB's and rebuilding them a while back but gave up using other methods instead I now see my mistake Quote:

2Cool...
I'm a little perplexed by the approach you took in that guide. I might be missing something here... Wouldn't it have been simpler, in that example, to just do VOB Extras in IFOEdit and strip VOB-IDs 1-5, 13-18, then fix up the corresponding titles' chapter counts for PGC_1 and PGC_3 in VIDEO_TS.IFO and be done with it (i.e., use MackemX Procedure #2). Your VOB-IDs would have been renumbered, but IFOEdit would have accounted for that with changes to the IFOs. Yes? Ok, ponder that for a second... My discovery here, in trying MackemX Procedure #7 "Removing ALL VOB ID's from the Movie/Extras PGC of a Multiple PGC IFO and create a dummy entry (this stops List index out of bounds (X) error)", was that I think I found an easier way. I don't don't know if it introduces a little bit of slop into the technique, but it seems to be working for me. The thing that was new for me in the above code example that I gave, was the absence of a second VOB-ID of sub-second length in each program chain. That is the classic case for which we employ MackemX Procedure #2 "Removing PART of the Movie/Extras VOB ID's but not all of them". I couldn't strip the VOB-IDs that were associated with say, PGC_s 5-8, without ending up with orphan program chains (i.e. no chapters, 0 programs, 0 cells). This was also the problem that the original poster of this thread was trying to solve. My solution was to first point the PGC_s to an existing VOB-ID that I was going to keep, and then execute VOB Extras in IFOEdit and strip the unwanted VOB-IDs. This works, in memory, with IFOEdit -- meaning I don't have to write the IFO files back after making the mods; I can modify the currently opened IFO file, then immediately execute the VOB Extras function. The side effect, is that the PGC_s inherit the characteristics of the VOB-ID that they were pointed to. If I point PGC_s 5-8 to VOB-ID 1 (used by PGC_2) in the above code, and strip PGC_s 5-8's original VOB-IDs of 6-9, then the new IFO files that are written have PGC_s 5-8 looking like PGC_2. At this point, if I bring this content into DVD Shrink, the titles associated with PGC-s 5-8 all look (and play) like the title associated with PGC_2 (which was the DVD's opening splash sequence). Now, I can't have that. So, I somewhat follow the second part of MackemX Procedure #7 and edit those PGC_s' play times down to decimal 82 and knock their start/end sectors down to 0. I don't bother to change the streams, though. The funny thing is, that when I now bring this into DVD Shrink, the titles associated with PGC_s 5-8 are no longer listed (they still are in InstantCopy, though). I think the end result is pretty much identical to that of MackemX Procedure #7. But it's easier this way, with no IFOUpdate step. You simply find an existing VOB-ID to point your target titles to, then strip their original VOB-IDs. Then fix them back up after VOB Extras is done. Now, getting back to your example. Yes, I think that approach might work here, and it might be cleaner also, since you're creating blank VOB-ID content for your stripped titles (versus borrowing against another VOB-ID and 82'ing it's play time). But my way is quicker (and dirtier)?? |

Anyways, stripping certain VOB-IDs in my example does not affect my DVD structure. Quote:
Interesting thought...IFOedit 0.95 has been around since last year and we are still finding different ways on how to use it.

@JFerguson,
Believe me @2COOL technique is the exact thing that you want for your solution. I tried it already and the end backup is one super smooth DVD. Just fabulous, thanks @2COOL! Yes, the example used in the guide is rather poorly suited. On first read, I got the same impression as yours but on subsequent readings I got the magic the guide intended for and its just simply fabulous . In fact your example would be the perfect candidate for applying this guide. Give it a go, guarantee a new high. Btw, hows that IFOEdit code extraction EXE going. Ready for prime time? Cheers. PS. Should this thread really be moved to the IFOEdit forum? Last edited by voo_doo99; 3rd September 2003 at 20:48. |

Well...both methods work but I kinda like JFerguson's way. I decided to tutor the community on a better understanding on how it works. Here's the guide, A Quicker Way to Stripping Multi-PGC Titles.

LOL, I've got my IFOEdit thinking cap back on again after a few months holiday and I'm busy playing with something and it looks like I'm able to remove individual cells without even stripping in a matter of a few seconds work by changing a few values
so basically just modding the IFO does it, no need for VOB Extras and both IC and DVDShrink recognise the files they way I want and with the correct sizes, no questions asked! I'll post info & pics after thoroughly testing but at the minute everything seems ok I can't believe how easy this is if it is going to work! and maybe you guys can help me if I cannot work out exactly what to do if it doesn't Last edited by MackemX; 3rd September 2003 at 22:16. |
