mine's from play.com and i'd get read errors in anydvd and dvddecrypter + anydvd. if it were as simple as just ripping it, i'd have done that!!
I don't believe this. It's now ripping properly with DVD Decrypter + AnyDVD. Guess the update sorted the problem as the previous version to the absolute newest version would not work, hence going through this. And the old version only identified 2 bad sectors compared to 4, and didn't state arccos. Anyways, to the person who has been helping me, you can continue with the IFOs as I will most likely use the edited versions I've already ripped to have better compression. Thanks for all your help dude. You have been a great help. EDIT: Even though DVD Decrypter might rip it without any problems, Recode and Shrink still wouldn't accept it, so I shall stick with what this super genius guy is helping me with. EDIT2: Fixed it with get VTS Sectors and running through FixVTS. Doesn't compress far enough, so I will definately use my modified/cut down version along with Jaguar's help
Sorry, I was gone since my last post and just got back. If I am understanding correctly, you are getting a message about VTS_05?? I will take a look. I did not edit VIDEO_TS.IFO at all, only VTS_01, so maybe one reference to an extra VTS is still on the IFO. I will let you know in a bit. Edit: I don't see any reference to VTS_05 anywhere in the IFOs. I have no problems opening the IFOs in PGCEdit or VobBlanker (I get no warnings about a missing VTS). Are you sure you are replacing all of the files?? Here are the ripping instructions again: -Go into IFO Mode. -Select only the last cell in VTS_01 (the main movie) Chapter 1 -Uncheck Chapter 29 (the last chapter) in VTS_01 -Rip the Main movie -Select PGC 1 of VTS_04 (the game footage [23:56]) & rip it -Select PGC 1 of VTS_02 (the Ending Credits?? [10:27]) & Rip it -Select PGC 1 of VTS_13 (don't know what this is [0:05]) & Rip it -Rename VTS_13 to VTS_03 -Delete all of the IFOs -Drag and drop the files I uploaded into the VIDEO_TS folder -Open the DVD in PGCEdit and save OR -Open the DVD in IFOEdit and "get VTS sectors" -Load it in DVD Shrink or Nero Recode If there is an error let me know. You should not get a "VTS_05 not found" message There is a chance you will get "cannot open DVD" or "failed to open VIDEO_TS.VOB". I can fix this though. Let me know if this happens.
Thanks mate. Greatly appreciated. There isn't any rush, so take your time. So long as I can get the DVD done by Monday night (BST so I can get it to my mate on Tuesday).
You know what I was thinking...When you sent me the IFOs with the deleted VTS, you set the number of titles and VTS to 4, but you did not remap the titles. There is a chance that this is messing up the VIDEO_TS.IFO. The thing with removing extra VTS and things of that nature is that it is more advanced. I wrote guides on them, but they are intimidating even to people that are very familiar with PGCEdit and IFOEdit. If there is an error in VTS_03 or VTS_04, this would explain that. Let me know, and I will see if I can fix it.
Don't need to FixVTS? Is that because of the IFOs you edited and sent? Well I'll get on it. But going to bed soon coz gotta get up early, so check back 2moro
DVD Shrink says "Invalid data in VTS_01_1.VOB" and Recode says "Failed to open the file VTS_02_MENU_1.VOB. There are no more files" Can you fix that? The steps I did were: Go into IFO, ripped VTS_01 with only the last cell in chapter 1, and excluding chapter 29. Then ripped VTS_02, VTS_04, and VTS_13 (renaming that one to VTS_03). Then loaded VIDEO_TS.IFO in IFOEdit and went to "Get VTS Sectors". Tried Shrink and Recode, and got those results.
I do not have access to the IFOs right now. Try also ripping VTS_02_0.VOB, VTS_13_0.VOB (rename to VTS_03_0.VOB), and VTS_04_0.VOB and adding them to the folder. Maybe there are BOVs in the VTS. For VTS_01 I will take a closer look later on.
Are you running AnyDVD while ripping or any other on-the-fly decrypter like DVD43??? If so disable them. I do not find anything wrong with the IFOs... Make sure that there are no extra files in the DVD folder as well. I will take a closer look at VIDEO_TS.IFO. Also, DO NOT RIP any IFOs from the DVD. Use the ones that you download from Rapidshare. All you are ripping are VOB files. And DO NOT RIP VTS_01_0.VOB. Use the one you are downloading from Rapidshare. I cannot find any mention of VTS_05 anywhere, so I do not understand the problem.
i've found a problem with the region 2 version of this movie. ripped/burnt as per normal then on playback i noticed that i can't skip thru the movie ie the chapter stuff is buggered up. haven't watched it yet as i need to be sure i can sit and watch whole thing in one hit and not be disturbed, to see if copy is ok. then i'll sit back and see what you lot come up with though as long as it plays thru i'll probably leave it at that. can't rememeber if i was using DVDFab Decrypter 2.9.7.6 or if i'd applied 2.9.7.7 by that time
There were some text files in there from when I ripped it in IFO mode. Deleted them and redid the Get VTS Sector thing and Recode is now analysing. Looks like it's gonna work. Thanks for all your help dude.
God damn it. Recode won't pick up the audio or subtitles for the main movie, but there are there because I tried it Nero Showtime. Anyway of clearning nero's memory so I can have it re-analyse the files? Wanna see if that was a one off mistake. Shrink gives the same error as last time.
Try opening up the IFOs in IFOEdit and dong the "get VTS Sectors". This should re-save the IFOs and cause recode to re-analyze. There is a folder also where Recode store the analysis info. I think it is: c:\\documents and setting\all users\application data\ahead\nero recode There are some files name similar to "Recode_f_d_7_a_b_a_b_d" Those may be the analysis files.
Nope, didn't work. Reckon I'll have to reset comp for it. Will do that later though because I'm watching a film on here. Anyway of getting Shrink to work?
