View Full Version : LBA values in the D2V file

Has anybody noticed that all versions of DVD2AVI write incorrect LBA values in the GOP lines. Except when LBA=0, they are all one less than they should be. You can prove it by looking up the LBAs in VobEdit. You'll see that they point to the block before the I frame, and not to the I frame block itself. This causes the decoders that read the D2V file to do a little extra parsing work on random access.

It's fairly inconsequential but I'm surprised no one has pointed it out before. Anyway, it is now corrected in my version 1.2.0, currently under development.

From memory I noticed the same effect when writing my own D2V creator...Glad your fixing bugs like that :)

Thanks, Nic. It's not my imagination then. :)

Actually it's a side effect of silly parsing kludges in DVD2AVI. I've straightened all that out.
