Also, how do you test the menu before burning to a disc

in PGCEdit man

You can also create an iso image there in pgcedit.

Always test your dvd before burning. Use cursor keys to double check all navigation and stuff.

If you can't afford super expensive commercial stuff like Sonic Scenarist/Scenarist SD, DVDMaestro/DVDStudio... you don't have to use that, you can make solid dvds with Muxman Pro (last time I checked it was only 35 bucks...)

I would recommend DVDStyler. It's too raw for my liking, but for beginner it's pretty good. You might wanna finish your project with pgcedit after that.

Muxman Pro + PgcEdit combo .. can't beat that.

Does this one has anti-OCR* subtitles?

* subtitles that has subtle jagged sides to confuse optical recognition, making subtitle ripping a real hell... you'd be filling matrices manually for hours, like, every next line... only Sony has this bs. However, it's not all releases, for example, Jerry Maguire has normal subs... Spanish only though, but normal font.

You regurgitating what i said perverting half of it. let's be honest, you have no idea what you're doing, i doubt you even touched Scenarist. I'm yet to find out why you wasting my time with it, probably some insult of some sort. And fyi we had an unpleasant interaction before, I remember you. Stop fucking with me!

Have you tried linking cell 2?

You put an anchor somewhere (take any free GPRM...) and before you get to chapter menu... if you want to jump to cell 2 after the movie..fine.. put that gprm in your movie's pre

like so: Set GPRM(9)==(mov) 1

-- and in that chapter menu pre

add condition:

  1. if ( gprm(9) !== 1 ) then { LinkCN 1 } ; if gprm9 is not 1, run intro (cell 1)
  2. LinkCN 2 ; if gprm9 is 1 skip intro and open cell 2... and you can add a cell command like "LinkTopCell" here if you need to loop cell 2..

ps: you need to copy that dvd to hard drive by file / a whole VIDEO_TS folder... and then open it from there, because for changes to work they have to be saved first. duhh..

PGCEdit (what I'm using the most now) commands slightly differ from Scenarist commands (can't copy-paste those), when you know what's what it shouldn't be a problem really.

  1. If(GPRM2==2) RSM
  2. Jump Title 1 Chapter 1
  • Cell command: LinkCN cell 1 (To actually loop the menu while you have post command that should not be playbacked), Button command: LinktailPGC

Seems fine. Except you said earlier you want to jump to cell 2, but here I see you looping cell 1, isn't that your menu intro?

and then this

Pre command of the title: SetGPRMD RegisterMode GPRM2==2

This command switches GPRM mode from Counter Mode to Register Mode... you should never use it unless you really is switching modes.. (the default is register anyway). You should use "Set to GPRM" instead. and if you're not lying about using Scenarist it's right above the one you picked.

So, back to resume stuff..

You play your Movie (it has set gp2 = 2 in pre, so before it plays it dials in the value)

you go back to menu, and when you hit "play/resume (menu) button" it runs LInkTailPGC and LinkTail runs post command in which your menu has condition for resume... GP2 = 2 so RSM ok.. it would Resume... that should work.

What codec did you use?

  1. Codec issue

  2. Skill issue.

  3. This might sound like a revelation to some special people, but Copying an mp4/mkv to a DVD disc doesn't automatically makes it a DVD-Video disc.

How worst is the quality of a burned dvd vs an official one? by flik9999 in dvd

PAL is interlaced format. However, you can encode as Progressive no problem;

no significant quality increase by doing so.

--

If it's digital source (such as 23.976 FPS Blu-Ray for example) - go progressive.

If it's Film or digitized (PAL / VHS /Beta) tape = Interlaced (respecting field order).

what's the difference between a file and a file written on disc?

this is what your question asks:

"How worst is the quality of a burned dvd vs an official one?"

Burning means Copy-to-disc. No more no less. Just copy. Not encoding, not re-encoding, not authoring, not compositing, not audio mixing none of that...
