Hello

I have ripped the movie title (which contained just 1 pgc) to my hard drive, re-encoded with CCE, and re-authored with Scenarist.
The DVD that scenarist outputted plays perfectly. All the audio and subtitles work fine.

When I overwrite the title files (VTS_01_X.VOB) that scenarist outputted with the originals, and use IFOUpdate on the original IFO, then Get VTS Sectors in IFOEdit, I came across a very wierd problem.

When I play the 'Final' DVD, chapters work okay, the movie plays fine, menus and everything work, but when I select Subs (english or french), they simply won't show. The player says that the subtitles language is infact selected, but the subtitles won't show (again, they showed when I played the DVD that scenarist produced)

Any ideas anyone?

I have exactly the same problem. I started a thread under 'Amelie'.
I did exactly as you said... but on the set-top...no subtitles. I would like the answer as well. You are not alone.
