Mac The Ripper Question

[egb]

I am overjoyed with this unbelievable program, but I may have encountered a file naming problem.

When the DVD title has more than one underline, the name seems to get truncated at a fixed length. I've tried to find a pattern, but the multiple underlines are the only commonality I've found.

"MY_DOG_CALLED_FRED" becomes "MY_DOG" or "MY_DOG_CA" (just an example).

Or is this user (read:my) error? Be honest.

its truncated to comply with the maximum alowed characters in the file name ( including the extra extension ).. it not a bug.

BTW... any DVD should contain underlines instead of spaces.....

100% apologies on my part - I really didn't mean it to sound like a complaint. This is my overwhelming preferred choice now.

It's just several of my commercially produced DVDs have names that exceed that limit, e.g., "BASEBALL_INNING_1" which comes out as "BASEBALL_INNING"...

you probably know this but it is very easy to change the name of the folder in the finder
