Hallo to all,

When compressing Soprano's Season 2 Disc 4 a problem occurs.
Alle other Soprano's disc's went ok, no problems at all.

Method:
- Join/Movie Only (Non-Seamless) & Dutch Sub's (3 Episodes on 1 Disc), Variable Ratio

Programs:
- DVD2One 1.40
- AnyDVD 3.5.3.1
- CopyToDVD 2.4.17.269

Media:
- Prico 4 speed (already burned many movies without any problems with this media)

DVD Reader:
- Liteon LTD-165H

DVD Writer:
- Pioneer 106 - Frimware 1.07


All goes ok, and the Stand Alone (Sony DVP-NS705V) playes ok.
However when I select Episode 2, the player jumps to Episode 2 and then starts skipping forward until approx 11 min and then plays on ok.
When I select Episode 3 it playes ok from beginning.
Redone the whole process and wrote to new disc.....same problem.
Started up DVD Shrink 3.17 and used same method (Movie Only, 3 Episodes on 1 DVD, Dutch Sub's).
And to my suprise -> No problem, jumps to Episode 2 and start playing ok (no skipping).
Maybe a bug in DVD2One ?
Best regards to all,

I had exactly the same problem with Pirates of the Caribbean and a few others.
The problem seems to have something to do with Sony standalone players and the ifo files produced by DVD2One on certain titles.

Have a look at my other thread, this explains in more detail. :

I would wager that your burnt disk will play fine in another (non Sony) standalone .... mine did.

HTH

Hello Phil,

Well did many, many movies and all played well on the Sony.
This is my first one with trouble.
However, if I re-encode with DVD Shrink, the disc play's fine !
So it must have something to do with DVD2One.
Tnx for the reply,

Lenco

Maybe after all DVD2One isn't the problem !
My friend used DVD Decrypter on this disc and then used DVD2One.
He said all went fine and no skipping
Haven't been able to retest myselft, but it would indicate (if true) that the problem is in AnyDVD.
There is a new version of AnyDVD and a rare bug was fixed, maybe this fix also apply's to this disc.
Gonna try it out and see what happens.

Well ... like I said in my other post :
"I have ripped with DVD Decrypter 3.1.7.0 and also tried it without it, using AnyDVD, but same results. I've burnt one copy with Nero 6 and another with CopyToDVD, still the same"
but DVD Shrink works either way i.e using DVD Shrink on its own or with DVD Decrypter.

I dont think the problem is AnyDVD, although I will be interested in your results. I still think it's a problem with the files that DVD2One produces, which somehow the SONY doesn't like.
As I said before, all my problem disks that I burnt with DVD2One work on other standalones, but not the Sony, albeit just on a few titles.
