prob burning with Nero 5.5.9.9

As usual, I've made a backup of my DVD-movie (only the movie... keeping the original menu in DVD backup).
But for the first time I didn't include the VTS_01_1.VOB (it's too big and it's not needed by the movie).
In my documentation "how to backup DVD..." I found the following information :
" The DVD specification says, a DVD must have a title set 1.
So we will need to copy VTS_01_x.xxx too, even if it wasn't played, or it won't be playable in a standalone player. But it is enough to keep VTS_01_0.IFO/BUP/VOB.
You DON'T NEED the large VTS_01_x.VOB files. "

The movie plays fine on my computer (choice of chapters... subtitles and so on...).
Nevertheless, when trying to burn with Nero 5.5.9.9 (in DVD Video mode), he's warning me with the following message : "burning failed.... file VTS_01_1.VOB is missing !"

I don't want another application to burn my DVD's... till now Nero is the best choice for me... no problem of compatibility with standalone players !

I was just thinking about something : why not put an empty file named VTS_01_1.VOB ?
But I'm afraid... I'm using expensive DVD-R's !

Any idea ? ... please help !
 
What I do is to move all the .IFO files to another folder then rename all the .VOB files to VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB etc. I then use IFOEdit's Create IFOs function followed by Get VTS Sectors (and Region Free if you want it). The film should now play OK and can be burned to disk. There is on small problem though, the subtitles will be displayed in an awful green colour. You can fix this if you want with IFOEdit. Open the original VTS IFO file in IFOEdit then running another copy of IFOEdit open your new one. In the top window select VTS_PGCITI then VTS_PGC_1 under it. Do this for both IFO Files. In the bottom window scroll down till you see the COLOR Tables starting COLOR 0 Y CR CB to COLOR 15 Y CR CB. For your new IFO file double click each on in turn and deselect all but HEX. Copy the Hex values from the original IFO Files Color table Hex values (fourth column) into the new IFO. Do this for each Color 0 to 15 and the subtitles will display correctly again. If you don't want subtitles you can skip this but it only takes a couple of minutes anyway.

Jolebo, i agree with you! i've been through some dvd burning s/w, and to me nero is one of the best in this field. If you scare of using expensive dvd, then testing your experiment with dvd rewirtable. However, i guess that nero gives the warning like that meaning some thing wrong with the installation or you O/S is missing some crucial file. I would suggest that reinstall the nero, if still failed check if your vts_01_1 is larger than 4 gigbytes if your O/S is 32 bit address.
 
Hi,

Information :
I've burned the movie with Nero (mode UDF/ISO) and it is ... NOT working on my standalone player !
I think it's probably due to some bugs in IfoEdit ! (bad savings of Ifo files or something like that...).

Anyway, thanks for your help !

And for me Nero is still THE BEST ! (I have also RecordNowMax 4.1 and Instant CD/DVD 6.4).

;)

If I find a solution in the future... I'll let you know.
