View Full Version : IFOEdit - Author DVD - Chaps Failed

Hi,

I'm using IFOEdit to 'Author New DVD', everything worked fine except the chapter points failed. That is to say there are no chapters at all on the finished DVD - as if none had been added.

I've authored about 50 DVDs using IFOEdit, always with chapters and never had a problem before. I even wrote myself a little Java utility to calculate the correct frames.

The frame rate (PAL = 25), movie length, and number of chapters, are all correct, and the chapter points were calculated to give me a new chapter every 5 minutes, the final one is approx. 4 mins before the movie ends - I've double checked all this, and authored the DVD twice with the same files getting the same result of no chapters both times.

Can anyone think of a reason why this might have happened? Here is the contents of my chapters text file.

----------
0
7500
15000
22500
30000
37500
45000
52500
60000
67500
75000
82500
90000
97500
105000
112500
120000
127500
135000
142500
150000
157500
----------

These all show up correctly in IFOEdit's chapter points text box.

What could be wrong? I am stumped!

Many thanks.
