No IFO File in Finished Product

I removed some chapters in a concert dvd I own (because of talking) and removed all the items on the right side. All worked well (the automation is great), but the results will not play from hard drive with power dvd (I get a blank picture and it appears to be frozen). I am using IFOedit 96 with DVDstripper 0.3.0 and DVD Decrypter 3.2.1 ... any suggestions I earlier posted this at the bottom of an old posting...sorry
 
Hi and welcome to the forums :)

you say you removed everything in the right hand side. DVDStripper does remove select menu's but you must leave the default menu. This is why it's blank video as it's playing the now removed menu's. If you tried playing a Title using the right click in PowerDVD it should work as the titles are still there but there is no menu navigation any more

there are a few things depending on whether you want menu's

if you do want menu's then leave the menu that comes up without any user intervention when you first insert the DVD in the list on the right hand side. This will then allow you to click Play (whatever it is) to then start playing the disc

if you don't want menu's then try using DVDShrink in reauthor mode and this will allow you to select just the titles (tracks) you want to keep

or you could try using Ifoedit and change the first play to start with Title 1

I hope this explains it for you ;)

p.s. don't worry about the other post, I saw that one first and I've deleted it for you :)

I did all you suggested, but still have a problem. There are two titles and when the first finishes the second will not start. I selected the chapters I wanted from both titles. Created the files, then used dvdshrink to remove the menus and all is well except when the last chapter of title 1 finishes, nothing happens, I want it to start automatically the beginning of title 2. What I have is the Chicago DVD that has two bonus songs in second title. I want those to play after the end of the title 1 songs. I have selected only the songs and eliminated the chapters that have talking....... thanks for your help. I am very new at this and very frustrated.
