Re: How to copy movie commentary?

It is not my favorite DVD player software; I think WinDVD is more like a player and seems to my eyes to have better video. There should be no DVD9/DVD5 choices in the iPod conversion window. Likewise any selections you made in the Customize window are ignored when you are in the DVD-to_Mobile part of the software. Don't know why you are seeing the jerky video--is this effect seen with the AVI files or VOBs? Make sure all your drives involved in video are in DMA transfer mode.
I'll have to try another run at VOB and see if the video is jerky with them - I deleted them all already, keeping only the AVI and MP4 trial runs.

I'll have to try WinDVD. Interestingly, when trying to play these with WMP, the audio doesn't work at all - any audio, not just the commentary. I'll have to try them on my other XP computer and see if that happens there also. I suspect the no-audio-on-WMP has something to do with Vista.
