MaestroProblem with time display when playing in DVD player

[FusionMafia]

I have a strange problem. I have authored a project with two travel videos and several menus. I compile the project and burn it to a DVD-R and try to play it in a standalone DVD player. It plays well and everything works but the dislplay of the player just shows lines (--:--:--) where it should show the time. I ave authored other DVDs also without this problem but now I can't seem to get rid of the problem.

The original .m2v & .mp2 files play well with PowerDVD and the navigation bar works (i can for example rewind and ff with it and search) but when I try to play the compiled project files with PowerDVD it does not allow me to use the navi bar.


Any solutions? Thank you!

if you use more than 1 video clip in Maestro (audio has to be one clip or conjoined) the time code is based on the first clip in reality .. change the time code selection to asset based instead of zero based (default).. i think this will fix your problem. there is some info on this in the help file.

That didn't help
I don't understand why it does this. I have two about 20min videos which don't show the time when playing.

There are several players that are not displating the time when the 'Time Search / Time Play', 'Time / PTT Search', and/or 'Forward Scan' & 'Backward Scan' user actions are disabled for the movie, though the player supposed to show the time and just not letting you change the it, it happens on my friend's DVD, movies without this restriction are just fine.

I have none of those restrictions set. In fact I have no restrictions at all because it's for my and my friends use only.

I have authored tens of discs with Maestro including all the survivor episodes, southparks and futuramas and made them 'professional' discs but this is the first one I have this problem with.
