I'm an trying to spilt a DVD9 disc (Enemy At The Gates) to 2 DVR-R's and am getting a problem. After the process, each disc plays a movie company logo then stops. That's all I get from them. Investigation shows the movie parts are there, just that they don't play.

Investigation has shown that the structure of the VOB files is such that the movies logo sequence (which is actually contained in VIDEO_TS.VOB) is being called from within Cell ID 1 of VTS_01_01.VOB and seems to be being copied over in the split process and seems to be throwing the whole thing.

Anyway, below is the structure of the VTS_01_XX.VOB that shows when I use DVD2AVI to view it (the entries below appear in the order they show whilst moving through the file):

CELL ID NO(s) CONTENT
============= =======

2/1 Main Menu
3/1 Chapter Selection screen no 1
4/1 Chapter Selection screen no 2
5/1 Chapter Selection screen no 3
6/1 Chapter Selection screen no 4

Then it goes back:

1/1 Chapter Selection screen no 5
1/1 Movie company logo sequence (as in VIDEO_TS.VOB)
1/1 Movie chapter 1 up to reading 00:02:39

Then part of the movie:

1/2 to 1/12 up to movie reading 01:13:12

Then cell id changes again:

2/1 to 2/9 with time counter reset to zero and going up to 00:52:10

Then we get return to cell ids shown earlier:

3/1 An advertisement
4/1 An advertisement


And that's it for the main movie VOB file.


As I said earlier, somehow the movie company logo sequence of 12 seconds is copied over to both discs and plays but then the thing just stops. Running them using the DVD Player option in IFOEDIT gets to the end of the logo then a message stating that there is a command error of some kind.

Does anyone know what's happened?

Thanks
