Hi, I'm trying to totally recreate the original dvd but i'm coming unstuck because I think it may be a seamless branched dvd. Here is the VTS layout in dvd decrypter VTS_04
Are 4:3 and 16:9 on same disc? Seems like that is what that maybe. Select one and see which is which and select which aspect ratio you want. (4:3, fullscreen; 16:9, letterboxed)
I've just looked at this title PGC 2 is a dummy, just uses the same content as PGC1.. if you use JDobbs multi-pgc method or an adaptation thereof you can ignore PGC 2.. IFOUpdate will do this work for you.
So am I right in thinking that I only need to create two title sets in scenarist (one for the movie & one for the still show? I still dont quite understand it beacause although PGC2 contains the dummy movie file, the audio is defferent
Yes ...you just create the 2 PGC's.. this is wrong.. of course... even tho the content in pgc 2 is identical to pgc1.. it DOES have content... so this means you MUST represent all 3 playlists if IFOUpdate is going to work... sorry about that.. my brain was obviously otherwise engaged...
Sorry about that but I had my brain in PARK when I initially replied... :D In Maestro I made all 3 PGC's on this title.... Maestro makes the PGC's as playlists.. so you can use multiple instances of the same content.. you need to do whatever it is Scenarist uses to do the same thing I thought PGC 2 was a dummy PGC at first... but it isn't it's just exactly the same as PGC 1... a dummy PGC would have no chapters or cells listed in the 2nd PGC
