Wrong timestamp in extracted .m2v file ?

[TEB]

Hi this is a copy of my post on the dvddecryptor forums to get some response from the doom9 ppl!! :)


LOTR 2 Towers SE both disc 1 .. Dvddecryptor reports 1:42 h/m and the result on the disc is that all my mpeg2 decoders report that the .m2v made with DVDdecrypter is 1:25... I tried the rip with SR 2.41 and i got almost the same total amount of data in gigabytes but my mpeg2 player (elecard 2.2, windvd) said 1:42 h/m now... so my question is, what is dvd-decrypter doing to the timestamps/speeding up the movie... Ive tried to play the 2 files next to each other and i cant seem to see that much difference in speed.. so i have no clue here..


I also noticed this on Shreck the other day since the film is 1 hour and 30 mins but what i got out of dvddecryptor was 54 mins...

Its only in the 3.1.9 release ive started noticing this...

Anyone have any idea?

uncheck the 'patch m2v timecode' option in the settings.

hmm ok. But for curiosity sake what is this patching for ? if it doesnt work ? :)

what is it supposed to do?

this is a response from Lightning UK to that question asked earlier in the forum.
"If you read the actual setting, you'll see that it patches the first GOPs timecode to 00:00:00
This allows for easy imports into DVDMaestro."
hope that helps
