DVD Studio Pro error using m2v taken from OSex

[IU Scott]

I am trying to add an .ac3 file and .m2v file (created with OSex) to DVD Studio Pro. I keep getting "PM ERROR: Bad format. File: TITLEO1-ANGLE1-VIDEO1.M2V"

Does anyone know why this won't work and any possible fixes? I am trying to copy a DVD-9 to a DVD-5 using the methods described http://www.anycities.com/user/bilestyle/index.html. Please help! Thanks.

Download a program called Mpg Append or moremissingtool (BITS). The problem you are having is that OSEX corrupts the timecode on the .m2v file sometimes. You have to run your .m2v file through one of these programs to correct the timecode. Then you can import into DVDSP. As far as your AC3 file goes you can change it to an Aiff file or you have to open it by using HEXedit or some of the other hex edit programs. Delete all data numbers before 0B 77. Save file then it will import into DVDSP.

Good luck
