Feature Reencoding?

[rack04]

Can anyone explain why DVD Rebuilder thinks that the feature does not required reencoding? VTS_01 is 7,227MBytes and would required reencoding to fit on a DVD-5. Thanks.

Certainly odd -- and the message is clearly shown in error, because if you run the ENCODE phase it still calls the encoder to make it fit... I'll check it out and see what's up.

[Edit] Yep. I found it. There's an error in the "Extra Blanking" routine that sets a flag incorrectly when any individual segment falls into the "no need to reencode" category. It, in fact, should only be set if that were true for ALL THE SEGMENTS in the feature. It shouldn't hurt anything and will work ok -- it's just reporting incorrectly. I'll fix it for the next release.

Thank your very much for you time. I pretty much knew everything was being encoded correctly but I figured I'd bring it to your attention.
