View Full Version : Problem with AddChapter 1.2.0.2

Trying to add a custom cell, created from a BMP with Muxman - no audio or subs, video attributes are same as rest of domain.

The chapter is created but only as a blank. Am I missing something?

EDIT: Forget it - I forgot to click Custom in the Cell Type field. However, if a custom cell is chosen, maybe it should be automatically selected?

One problem is however, that for some reason the PgcEdit preview hangs on this cell when it is not blank. What could be causing this?

Hi blutach,

AddChapter adds one "single-VOBU" cell, custom or blank. A "single-VOBU" cell is typically used in stills.
But AddChapter does not check if you are using a "multi-VOBU" cell. In this case, "aparently" the process finishes OK, but it is not true. New IFOs are not correct, and opening them in any prog (even in a fantastic one ;) ) can cause unexpected results.
If you want to add a "multi-VOBU" cell, use AddChapter to add a blank cell, and, after that, use VobBlanker to replace the newly added blank cell with the one you want.

Aaah - great idea, thanks. Something I should have thought myself if I had half a brain!

Yes, my player didn't like it either. Played, but struggled to go back.

Thanks again, jsoto!
