I have some DVD cannot use the search function,
Please help me to remove this restriction!
I have some idea on the first few steps.

1. open VIDEO_TS.IFO: use ifoedit, under video managertitle play map table, The unsearchable DVD, Addresss 0008, Prohibited user op. Time play or search is YES. with reference to other searchable DVD, I set it to 20. and save the ifo file, the tag is now NO.

2. open VIDEO_TS.IFO: check at Video Manager Menu PGCI(program chain) unit table, Address 0008, all are UNset.

3. the DVD should be searchable now, but with no success

4. open VTS_01_x.IFO: I think that there are still something to do, may be Video Title Set Time Map Table in VTS_01_x.IFO are empty, how to recreate this?

There is a button (Remove P-UPs) to do this. The restrictions appear in three places, the worst being EVERY NAV pack.
But, even with the restrictions removed, you cannot do certain searches without the required tables. Searching by time requires the time map (VTS_TMAPTI), and only one-sequential (only one PGC for the entire movie) titles can have this map. Search by chapter, of course, requires a chapter list (VTS_PTT).

Remove P-UPs don't work, it say no P-UPs found in this IFO.

instead if I use the create IFOs option, the movie are now searchable but... the original menu are disappeared now.

there are VTS_TMAPTI in the newly create IFOs, but I cannot found any way to copy this table to the old IFO...even if it can work actually.

any suggestion to solve this problem?
