DVD Decrypter and/or DVD Shrink 3.1.5. making pauses ?

[Nobodydies]

I have mentioned this again and in other forums and until today I haven´t find the solution for this problem, so I decided to spend more time and write a step by step guide for the things I have made until now with the following software: a) DVD Decrypter , and b) DVD Shrink 3.1.5.

1. I use my stand alone Dvd recorder to record a movie from TV. ( I have the DVD settings in SP, that means near 120 min in a blanc DVD)

2. After the and of my recording I take the DVD RW from the Dvd recorder, and I put it in my computer´s Dvd drive.

3. I create a new file I call "MOVIE WITH SPOTS" and 2 more files in it, the "AUDIO_TS" file, and the "VIDEO_TS" file.

4. I start DVD Decrypter ( because I want to move the movie files in my hard disc where I want to modify them, and get rid the commercials breaks ) .I select als Source my computer´s Dvd drive, and as destination the C:\MOVIE WITH SPOTS\VIDEO_TS

5. In DVD Decrypter main screen, I choose MODE > FILE and then again on main screen I choose EDIT > SELECT ALL (well not all because the first file is not acceptable, like it is not exists- by the way what is this??- It is NOT EVEN recognised from windows like it is not exists) ,and then again on main screen FILE > DECRYPT. After that, Decrypter starts.

6. When the transfer ends, I close DVD Decrypter, and I open DVD Shrink 3.1.5.

7. In DVD Shrink main screen, I choose Re-author, and then

8. I select als the "title 1"(that is the only title for the time) from the main movie file from C:\MOVIE WITH SPOTS\VIDEO_TS, and I pass this in the left side of the screen in the "DVD structure" area.

9. Now I want to get rid off the TV commercials, so I have to work my title with "set Start/End frames". When I finished with the first commercial break, I replay the step 8 so many times as the commercial breaks are -usually 3 maximal 4 times- and when I´m done with it.....

10. I make one left click on the DVD folder under the text "DVD Structure", and in the right side of the screen I choose "Compression Settings". I do not want any compression so I change the >VIDEO from AUTOMATIC into NO COMPRESSION.

11.Finally, I am pressing the "Backup!" button and I choose my dvdr drive as the record device and I am waiting approximately 6 minutes for the Encoding, and 13 minutes for the dvd recording.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
000000. When I play the new DVD that I make and it reaches the point where the commercials were, it freezes the screen for 1/2 second and then continues to play until the next point of where the commercials were. Another strange thing happening is with the skip buttons of my Dvd. It can goes front, but it can never goes back ( !! ).
These symptoms are happening in other devices as well. Untill today I had experienced the same problems in 5 different stand-alone dvd devices, and 3 computer dvd and dvdr drives.

Does anyone knows why is this problem occurs ?
Does anybody knows other paths to follow but with better results ??

Thank you all for your time..............

Activate the Remove PUOP in DVD shrink, and use editing software instead of in and outs directly from DVD shrink, Setting ins and outs will cause more titles instead of chapters, the DVDplayer will find where the next title is on the disk and that's why there's a ½ second pause.

Jzhang, first I want to thank you for your reply

What excactly is the PUOP I don´t know, but I´ll give it a try.
When you say editing software what did you have in mind ?

[zomba]

PUOP stands for "prohibited user operations" if and don't remember wrong, and basically means that functionality of your remote can be changed to not allow it to do everything it's supposed to do

if you want a comlete editing solution avid has
a free one here http://www.avid.com/freedv/welcome.asp
if you just want to cut some in your vob's this might be enough
http://www.digital-miner.com/chopperxp.html
but i havn't tried that however

[Nobodydies]

I have just tried this thing with the PUOP but nothing happens...
Same result as always. Right now I´m gonna try your links and I will inform if something good happens....

Thanks anyway !
