For Derrow : IFO-Edit suggestion

[candyman_eu]

Hi Derrow,
first of all I would like to say that your tool is really great. However there are two things which I would be happy to see in a future 'revision' of it. It's probably nothing to rewrite tons of code, but would it be possible to have the 'Regionfree' button to be be applied to ALL IFO's and not just the one which is opened ? Same goes for the PUO's. Sometimes you have 7-8-9 or more IFO's and when you want to remove the User Op's on all of them, you have to open and save each of them.
Oh yes ... now I just remember ... this one I'm not sure is possible but just in case ... I recently merged two flipper DVD's (one movie on two sides (from the early beginning of DVDs)). It works fine to merge them into one movie only (with VOBedit), but I notice that the chapters don't appear. Would it be technical 'fesable' to edit the chapter points back ? As I can see everything correctly in the IFO where the previous chapter was ?
Thanks and continue this great tool.

Thanx.

The first 2 things should be easy and quick to implement.

But the last suggestion will be a bit more work.
I'll fix that problem for sure, it will just take a while.
Untill then, you can use the new functions in IfoEdit to add the chapters manualy.

I can add chapters manually ? Hmm and I thought I tried all options and clicks already ... will give it a try later.

Thanks.

Hi Derrow

I had the same problem with U571 (chapters of merged vob's missing).
Is there a guide or "link" to do it manualy?

Thanks

[Derrow]

No guide for that yet.
But I'll make one.

Simply right click with mouse of a chapter in chapter table, or program in PGC, to get a context-menu.

I had a go in adding chapters, these are my results, needs checking.
1) In VTS_PGCITI > VTS_PGC_1 adding the missing PG's
in PGC Program Map (you can check at the bottom how many)
Number of Programs at the top will be increased autm.
2) In PTT_SRPTI add the missing chapters, you can find the values
in VTS_01_0IFO
3) Correct and save IFO's
4) Get VTS Sectors. Ready to burn

Is this correct?

Derrow,

Simple but annoying. IFOEDIT does't let me specify a new directory in the Destination directory box on the VOB Extra Options panel. Can you modify this so it uses a standard windows function to allow selecting an existing directory or specifying a new one?

I already use the standard windows function for that, and right that seems to have problems on WinXP !

Point 1 is not correct (and not possible)
You must add programs inside a PGC!
So it should read:
1) In VTS_PGC_1 > VTS_PGC_1 adding the missing PG's
in PGC Program Map (you can check at the bottom how many)
Number of Programs at the top will be increased autm.

And point 3 is confusing somehow. Why creating new IFOs?
I guess you mean save IFOs.

Derrow,

The can't recreate problem also exists on my system running Win2k. If you can fix this it would be great. Thanks

THX Derrow
I've already corrected my post.
I've stumbled on an other problem, I can jump true chapters on my stand alone now, but where the missing chapters were, the player
display's "chapter 1-1" till the end.

Found the solution
adjustment of the number of chapters in VMG_PTT_SRPT

This time it worked. The new guide is:

1) In VTS_PGCITI > VTS_PGC_1 adding the missing PG's
in PGC Program Map (you can check at the bottom how many)
Number of Programs at the top will be increased autm.
2) In PTT_SRPTI add the missing chapters, you can find the values
in VTS_01_0IFO
3) Correct and save IFO's
4) In VMG_PTT_SRPT adjust the Number of chapters and save
5) Get VTS Sectors. Ready to burn
