Splitting by Title

[gajit]

Hi Gents,

I am having somes issues with splitting Titles on a couple of DVDs.

I am using the latest Beta, DVD-Mobile (PS3 profile - the issue is the same for all Mobile options).

On a few disks, DVDFab cannot find the specific titles on a DVD and one Title is presented. E.g. "Only Fools and Horses Series 1-3 Disc 1", had 7 episodes, all of approx. 30 minutes. DVDFab reports 1 title of 3 1/5 hours.

I can select "Split by Chapter" and it correctly finds all of the chapters within a title - but then I have the problem of 'joining' them together - and neither Yamb or AviDemux do a good job (Yamb's join yields parallel audio and video tracks) and AviDemux unecessarily transcodes with horrible results).

Anyone have an inside line on how I can see these titles on the disk? Is there a way to make the initial disc analysis more 'sensitive'? Thus finding the titles?

I'm pretty certain that DVDFab DID split these discs by title pre-4.0.. I have some iPod versions of this series that I did some time back ...

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Graham

It is probably that the disc was not authored with each episode as a separate DVD title. I suggest you play it in a DVD player or VLC and note the title and chapter start/end for each episode. Then select each title and chapter selection one-by-one to output using DVDFab.

As it is an older release, it may be also worthwhile trying it with Pathplayer disabled.

Thanks gents.

I actually ripped the DVD's by splitting each chapter - from which I was able to determine the titles...

I had tried it with Pathplayer disabled with no joy.

I think I found a workaround though: -

It works - althought it's a bit of a pain, but as these dvds are the exception rather than the rule, I can work with it. .. ..

I love this product - keep up the good work DVDFab!

Thanks again for your help guys!
