Posted: Thu Sep 20, 2007 8:26 pm Post subject: VIDEO_TS.VOB is missing |
|
|
Just downloaded newest version from Dimadsoft (DvdReMake Pro 3.6.2).
I have a training DVD I authored 4 years ago in DVD Studio Pro. It's 2-1/2hrs long.
I want to change the main menu.
Copied the DVD contents to my hard drive. Imported it into DvdReMake Pro.
I tried this two times, first using the VIDEO_TS folder as my import target, and then by navigating into the VIDEO_TS folder and using the contents as my import target. Both methods seemed to work fine.
Followed your guides to change the menu by creating a dummy DVD. Worked fine and plays fine in WinDVD.
When I go to burn the project to a DVD+R, there is no VIDEO_TS.VOB in my exported project.
Any suggestions? The disc created without the VIDEO_TS.VOB file seems to work OK in a standalone player, but I don't trust it if it's missing the file.
thanks - - - |

Hi and welcome to the forum.
Is there any real content in VIDEO_TS.VOB? Since the output plays fine, you're ok. The VOB file is probably unreferenced, thus it is removed upon export. |

Thanks,
I did a web search and found that VIDEO_TS.VOB is the "first play" video. This particular DVD has no first play video. I actually looked at the VIDEO_TS.VOB from the original disk and saw that it was a single frame of black, so I just dragged it to the new VIDEO_TS folder (along with the *.IFO and *BUP files and it burned with no error messages. I'll test it in a couple of different DVD players before I start duplicating.
Thanks for your response. It was reassuring. |

You must get new VTS sectors if you're going to drag files into DvdReMake output folder. However, in this case, the VIDEO_TS.VOB is not there for a reason (the black frame is not played and not referenced), so trust DvdReMake output and burn away. |

Thanks again for the advice.
Should I remove the VIDEO_TS.VOB and burn without it, or are you saying that IN THIS INSTANCE it doesn't matter? |

| Whatever is output by DvdReMake you can burn it. |
