Hi all,

I'm still struggling with the backup of Austin Powers 2 (PAL) I'm trying to do. The Adjusted Cell Mode guide on doom9 describes this extra but the PAL rental version seems to have a different structure.

The cameos are located in a seperate VTS set. You have some sort of menu were you select an actor off which you can see a scene from the movie. Aquabubble suggested doing this by vobid following the instructions he included in this thread: http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=47282

I went on to try it, but it's not working out very well. I noticed that most subpictures look like this: http://users.pandora.be/verbal/subs.jpg

There's a regular subtitle script and also a -forced subtitle script. These images are actually buttons which you use to navigate through the structure. Should I do anything special for this or should aqua's procedure work well to recreate this structure?

I'll also add some screenshots of the ifo. The first one is a view of the pgc's containing the still menu. The second one are the pgc's containing the scenes from the movie:

Thx for any help,

Hi VerbaL,

This sounds like button-over-video, which is a relatively complex kind of DVD to reauthor and is not supported by RA I'm afraid. I suggest you give the BoV guide a once over to see how you should go about reauthoring this dvd.
