Re: UPDATE!!!! VOBU length & number of sectors disagree

Alexander,

If you put the DDP on DVD-R using Toast, it's still DVD Studio Pro's output, right? But most folks using DVD SP simply submit the playable DVD-R written right out of the authoring system (Lucas, I think said they get 90% of their submissions this way).

Either way, you are at risk of the dreaded VOBU Length and number of sectors disagree error. Makes not a jot of difference how it was formatted - remember, those VOBU's output by DVD Studio Pro are still embedded in the DDP image, and if the replicator has problems reading the DVD-R (playable files or DDP) in their drive, well - you know what can happen.

And you did catch my attempt at humor in the last reply, blaming DVD Studio Pro for this, didn't you? I was joking. It's not a DVD Studio Pro issue (99% of the time we see that VOBU error - or thereabouts, i.e., it's rare for DVD SP to output VOBU errors as has been attributed to it).

I will have more on this, as it's about time I helped correct the misconceptions about this error. I'm gathering some notes, talking to some folks to shore up some of my 'facts', trying to make some time, etc. Minimally, the notes on this error in the EclipseSuite help files need to be updated, and the world's replication engineers running Eclipse (almost all of them are) notified.

Thanks and talk soon,

Trai
