PgcEdit v0.3.

Excuse my ignorance, but wouldn't the Title Play PUO mess him up?

Anyways, back to episode guide testing ;)

[blutach]

I was and I can see that you can't do it. However, there's a way.

Copy as text
Open MS word and paste
Go to where you want and hold down Alt key
This will select text "by columns"

See below:

@2COOL
Do you still want the option to remove the [hex codes] from the Info dumps? Seems useful to keep them now, no?

@blutach
Try removing all your PUOps. That's what is stopping you from using your "next" button.
Usually, when there is PUO on NextPG, Next button in soft player is disabled at all. In this case Next button is enabled, but doesn't do anything, just continue to play.

@2COOL
If you don't want your PGC's video content to play, just do a Kill Playback on this PGC.
Thanks, but I really don't want to kill, just to enable skipping by the wish.

[Sajan]

I've just moved whole DVD through PGCedit's "enable all operations". It's hopeless. Seems, it's something else.

By the way, I've noticed, that next PGC (with fully functional NextPG) have 2 cells with attributes 2 and 8. But this PGC (shown above) have only one cell with attributes 2. Can it be something here?

[blutach]

@sajan

Admit to being stumped here.... My only thought - I do trust there is actually a PGC4 in that menu?

There are PUOPs in vobs as well. Don't think PGCEdit changes these. This may be the reason.

You may try IfoEdit to strip them all in vobs, or DvdReMake Pro to set the ones you need (or just strip them all)

[Sajan]

Ok. There is more info.
So, NextPG doesn't work at PGC3->PGC4 transition, but works at PGC4->PGC6 transition.

Humm... When I tried to export Test DVD with DvdReMake Pro 2.2.0, I found that all PGC commands were killed...

Anyway, I don't think it's because of PUOPs at all.
May be something else... But I'm working with DVD just a little time, I don't know much about it...

@Sajan

Though I'm not a technical expert on this matter, I have disturbing feeling about your VOBUs (Video OBject Unit) being equal with a playback time of 00:00:07.25 /30 fps. Maybe mpucoder or someone else could comment whether or not it's ok. Don't know if VOBUs and and your NextPG button have anything to do with each other.

This is regards to your VMGM , LU 1 (ru) , 3

- Delete the configuration directory C:\Documents and settings\<YOUR_USER_NAME>\Application Data\PgcEdit
That's all. In regards to your comments on manually uninstalling, does it target this file too in auto-uninstalling?

How about doing a mock strip (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=84097) on your VIDEO_TS files? Use the mock stripping menus procedure. Maybe it'll correct something.

[r0lZ]

@sajan
Sorry for such unreadable info about cells, just copy-pasted from PGCedit For a correctly formatted output, you have to print this info with fixed-width fonts. In the forum, just enclose the dump output in [ code ] [ /code ] marks (without the spaces).

It's enabled only on opening VTSx IFOs.

In regards to your comments on manually uninstalling, does it target this file too in auto-uninstalling? The size of this file is incredibly high. Maybe your DVD has many cells with many buttons, but I can't understand why it's so high. Normally, this file is overwrited each time you load a DVD in PgcEdit, and therefore must not grow. In a previous version, the file was deleted after being created and parsed, but I changed that to be able to examine the contents of the file in case of problems. I will revert to the old behavior...

And, no, the file is not automatically deleted when you uninstall PgcEdit. But the TEMP directory is theorically cleaned by Windows regularly. Of course, you may delete it manually. Sorry for the inconvenience...

But I haven't seen any errors popping up without it yet. Ami I going to have a problem if that file which needs to be overwritten is not there?

Then probably, you didn't have PUOS in your VOB. To really confirm if you do have them, open up your VIDEO_TS.VOB with VobEdit. In left window (LBA), select a [Navigation Pack]. You'll see data appear in right window. Scroll down to Byte 0035. If you don't have a zero value for Probihited U-OP, then you have PUOs existing. Randomly check other [Navigation Packs] in this VOB to confirm.

Just to test this out, I renamed the file. I assume PgcEdit would create another if I open up another DVD. It didn't. I checked while my PgcEdit session was still open and after closing it. :(

But I haven't seen any errors popping up without it yet. Ami I going to have a problem if that file which needs to be overwritten is not there?
How it works: when you open (or reopen) a DVD, the standalone executable button_dump.exe is used to search all menu VOBs of the DVD for buttons. The output of the exe is redirected to a temporary file in TEMP. Therefore, for each titleset, a file is created in the TEMP dir: pgcedit_temp_button_0.tcl for the VMGM, pgcedit_temp_button_1.tcl for VTSM1, ...
Then, the files are sourced by PgcEdit to retrieve the menu buttons commands, positions, etc...
In the current version, the file is then deleted (I forgot I have changed this again).
If pgcedit_temp_button_3.tcl is still there, it must be because the new DVD you opened doesn't have a VTS 3. However, I don't understand why it is so big. I have just tested this with some DVD, and the size is never greather that approx 100 Kb.
Don't worry: you may safely delete it!

Yes, you're right. There is no any PUOPs in VOBs. Also there is no according PUOPs in IFOs. Where else I can look for?

By the way, I have working right NextPG after changing PGC pointers to this (but it's strange...):

VMGM , LU 1 (ru) , 3
NextPGCN: 3
PrevPGCN: 3
GoUpPGCN: 3
VMGM , LU 1 (ru) , 4
NextPGCN: 4
PrevPGCN: 4
GoUpPGCN: 4

But I still can't do a time search of this PGCs...

Ok, we got the PUOs factor out of the picture. Did you mock strip your VIDEO_TS?

I have since opened up several DVDs and I still don't see one. :confused:

I understand now.;)

Request: Can we have a feature to select command(s), right-click, and select an option to send it to the scratchbook for appending? This would be useful for creative users. ;) Oh, to also include button commands too.

Yes. It's easy.

What do you mean with "also include button commands too"? Do you want an option in the menu buttons viewer to send the current button command to the scratchbook?

But I still can't do a time search of this PGCs... I may be wrong, but given that your PrevPGCN and NextPGCN are pointing to the same cell that referenced them in the first place (PGC3 are all pointing to PGC3 and same with PGC4) won't it be that every time you press next chapter or previous chapter it will just take you into the same chapter? The only way out is to play the video and wait for the post command to execute.

What does 2COOL and rolz think?

@rolz

Are you planning on PgcEdit being able to actually view the various menus (like Menuedit registered version enables you to do)?

No big deal if not, it wouold just be very nice.

What does 2COOL and rolz think? If the the NextPGCN is pointing to it's own PGC #, then at the last chapter, you will jump immediately to the post commands. So in VMGM PGC 3, Sajan will jump to it's own Post commands. Therefore, executing his LinkPGN 4 command.

PrevPGCN will jump to Pre commands.

What DVD and region code are you working on here?

Regards Of course, it would be nice. But unfortunately I doesn't have the required DirectX knowledge to program this kind of stuff. I am still looking for a solution. Maybe I will find somewhere an open source player that I can adapt to use it as a preview for PgcEdit.

If a programmer is able to help me on this matter, please let me know...

Najica Blitz Tactics (episodes 1-12) (2 DVD-9, about 6,5G each), region 5.
I'm trying to reauthorize it to 3 DVD-5 without recompressing of video.

Yes, I've done mock strip - it's nothing, all the same.
Can time seraching be disabled, because this PGC is belong to VMGM menu, not a VTSM title?

Absolutely. btw, I think you mean a VTS title. VTSM is the title menu domain, and you can not time search in there either. Only title PGCs have time maps, in VTS_TMAPTI.

@mpucoder
It explains smth. Thanks:))

@doom9, especially 2COOL,r0lZ,blutach
Thank for your help. I'd know much more about DVD structure and reathoring for a one week. I'm glad to have some lessons from you.

I'm trying to reauthorize it to 3 DVD-5 without recompressing of video. I thought we were working on a freshly ripped DVD. I didn't know you had re-authored it. So, how did you do it to 3 discs? Note: Just woke up. :)

First, let me start out by saying thanks for a great application. I finally got around to trying it, and I'm impressed. I can see where this will save me a lot of time over just using IfoEdit.

Now, on to the requests...

First, I'd like the ability to configure where the backup goes - including the ability to specify a relative path. (This way, I don't have to remember to delete the backup directory when burning the VIDEO_TS directory.)

Second, preview capability. I know I'm not the first to ask for this. It seems to me that this could be added by way of the Tools menu. First, PgcEdit would have to add a few extra '%' parameters that would plug in information related to the currently selected PGC (VIDEO_TS or VTS_nn; menu PGC or title PGC; and the actual numbers). Then, a simple external program that's a wrapper around calls to one of the display libraries. While not quite as integrated as IfoEdit's preview, it would solve the problem of trying to call the DirectX libraries from Tcl.

[jeanl]

the problem is writing the wrapper app around directX. I'm wondering where we could get some help for that. It's not as simple as it seems, like playing an mpeg stream (that's easy), here we need to play bits and pieces according to the navigation, and short of using direct X's DVD support (which only allows you to "play" a DVD), I'm not sure how to go about doing it simply (from looking at the Direct-X doc).
Maybe r0lZ could coordinate with jsoto on that one, since vobblanker had a nice, functioning preview...
