Hi. I am trying to manually split a dvd-9 movie onto two dvd-5 discs. Most movies fit on one disc. What I am doing is copying the first title set to it's own folder. Then the second and/or third to it's own folder. The first title set usually contains the entire movie. HomerJ informed me that I would need to "Create new IFO files" for the second disc to work.

Everything is fine up until this point in the guide:

"Now we need to do some little modifications. Click on VTS_01_0.IFO, and you will notice that the audio and subpicture attributes are not correct:"

The guide states:

"The channels of the AC-3 audio streams are all set to 1ch. We need to edit this. Go into the table VTSI_MAT and scroll down to the audio VTSTT attributes: "

First problem.

The next statement in the guide is:

"I know that Audio stream 1 and 2 have 6 channels, and the other have 2 channels."

I don't know how many channels stream 1 and 2 have. How do I find out?

"Double click the Aud_1 attributes and change the second hex-value to 05:"

When I double click the Aud_1 attributes I do not get a form that allowes me to change a hex value. I get the form that I am attaching to this post.

Ups, I guess the guide is obsolete in some places :D

I need to update it asap. Just need some more time.

The newer IfoEdit versions collect now the number of channels of an audio stream, and update the IFO apropriatly.
And when double clicking on audio/subp. attributes, a nice dialog will apear, where you can change values more easily.

Thanks for replying.

New problem.

I create the IFO files and they have the audio info correct.

I open the ifo in IfoEdit and click play DVD. It works fine.

I burn it and it won't play on my home dvd player. It recognizes it as a DVD but won't play. It shows 1 title and no chapters. On my dvd rom it plays fine but goes straight to the movie skipping the fbi logo and menu.

Any Ideas
