View Full Version : PGCEdit - Add Intro Clip problem

I have tried using the "Import First-Play (Startup) Clip" and also the "Import Titles Intro Clip" to add an introductory clip to my movie files...using either of these two macros requires that I add the intro clip twice...then it works ok. I don't have that problem with adding a closing clip. Any ideas or is there a step-by-step instruction that I might follow?

Welcome to the forum, Gprin.

I have just tried again both functions, without problem.

What do you mean by "using either of these two macros requires that I add the intro clip twice"?

The first time, nothing happens? Normally, a dialog should be opened, with some configuration options. When you accept the dialog, a file requester is opened, to let you choose the IFO to import. Finally, a third dialog ask if you want to copy or move the VOB file(s). After that, a new domain should be created, with the imported title title, and some commands are added.

Or is it that the title is not played automatically? If it's the case, are you sure you have saved the DVD?

Note: For the title's intro clip, you must select the title before calling the macro.

Thanks for the quick come-back, by the way. Ok, when I use either the "First Play" or "Intro" clip macros........I open the DVD, click on the title I want, and then on the Macro pull down list and select one of those macros....it asks for the duration time, and then for the IFO file to use, which I select, and then save the new DVD. The first time I do this, and play the DVD, nothing happens..it doesn't work...it just by-passes the intro and goes straight to the movie. However, if I reopen the DVD and follow the same procedure, adding the same IFO file a second time, it works just fine.

Hum, I really doesn't understand what happens. Could you send me your original IFOs (to pgcedit <at> tiscali <dot> be)? Maybe you have encountered a special case...
