I'll been trying to burn these vob files for 3 days...

[jesse40902]

Alright so i got this movie file...it bascially came in vob files. it has two ifo files, two bup files and 4 vob files...But when i tried burning them AS dvd with nero, it doesnt work on my dvd player...it only works on my computer...I dont know why..been trying for 3 days...

These are my files:
VIDEO_TS
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VTS_01_0
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_1
VTS_01_2
VTS_01_3
VTS_01_4

and the first 3 vob files are about 1.23 gigs each and last one is 140megs..

when I have that problem..I burn with IMAGETOOLBURN and works everytime....hope this helps.

ps. I would think the vob's would show as 0.99gb I have never had one bigger than that

[jesse40902]

Hello Jesse

You could try TDA with no menu. Add each VOB to the same track. If everything works OK it should create the standard 1,048,574 KB VOB and IFO files. Burn with TDA or Nero.

Just a thought,

Chas

my friend said cause my files are not decrypted...can this be the case also? i know my files are not decrypted...does it means i have to use dvd crytper?

[jesse40902]

files that u d/l that comes in .vob files...usually all u do is burn and thats it?

[psx_pirate]

You are missing some files .... copy (not move) all the .bup files to a new folder .. rename them to .ifo (dont change anything other than the extension ... ie VIDEO_TS.BUP will be changed to VIDEO_TS.IFO) now move these files back to the original folder (you should now have .IFO and .BUP files in that folder along with the .VOBS) ... burn with nero ... you should now have a working dvd

[jesse40902]

if u want me to change the bup to ifo, then i will have 4 .ifo files instead of 2bup and 2.ifo....

I checked another working dvd and they didnt have to put .ifo as extension...

[psx_pirate]

you must copy the original .bups ... rename to .ifo .. then copy them back to the original folder leaving the original .bups unchanged ... you should then have 2 .ifo and 2 .bup files

[jesse40902]

These are my files:
VIDEO_TS ---change to video_ts.ifo
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VTS_01_0 ---change to video_ts.ifo
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_1
VTS_01_2
VTS_01_3
VTS_01_4

is that what u mean?

[psx_pirate]

NO...

[jesse40902]

VIDEO_TS
VIDEO_TS.BUP change to video_ts.ifo
VTS_01_0
VTS_01_0.BUP change to video_ts.ifo
VTS_01_1
VTS_01_2
VTS_01_3
VTS_01_4

is this wut u mean? if its not, can u pleaes illustrtate which one to change?

[psx_pirate]

create a new folder (say on ur desktop) right click on VIDEO_TS.BUP now hold down the CTRL key and right click on VTS_01_0.BUP (both files should now be highlighted blue) using right mouse button drag these files to the new folder you just created and release mouse button ... select copy here from dialogue that pops up .... now open the new folder and change the .BUP to .IFO on both files ... now drag them back to original folder (with right mouse button) and select move here .... now burn it

[psx_pirate]

You should now see these files

VIDEO_TS
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VIDEO_TS.IFO
VTS_01_0
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_0.IFO
VTS_01_1
VTS_01_2
VTS_01_3
VTS_01_4

[jesse40902]

if i change my VIDEO_TS.BUP,VTS_01_0.BUP to .ifo , then i will have 4 ifo cause VIDEO_TS , and VTS_01_0 are ifo's...

[jesse40902]

oh thats wut u mean.....thanks, but when i saw a working cd,

it was just
VIDEO_TS
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VTS_01_0
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_1
VTS_01_2
VTS_01_3
VTS_01_4

[psx_pirate]

OH ... the first file VIDEO_TS should be deleted ... all the files should be saved in a folder named VIDEO_TS and you also need to create a folder named AUDIO_TS (there will be no files inside this folder) .... now burn both these folders to a dvd

[jesse40902]

VIDEO_TS ---delete
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VIDEO_TS.IFO
VTS_01_0
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_0.IFO
VTS_01_1
VTS_01_2
VTS_01_3
VTS_01_4

is this the correct order?

[jare3094]

if they works in the pc and not in your standalone may be that those files are in pal format and you are in ntsc format.

[jesse40902]

psx, is that the correct order? also how do i change it to ntsc format then?

[jare3094]

check the guides you will find a few ways to do that.

[jesse40902]

im asking, is there a quick way to check if my format is ntsc or pal? cuz i dont think its pal...

[jare3094]

sorry but at this moment I can't think of a way to know that but I'm in my way to find a PAL DVD and I'll let you know, keep checking back.

[psx_pirate]

Use ifoedit to open the VTS_01_0.IFO and look in the bottom pane ... it will show attributes of video ... you will see some text like this

MPEG-2 720x576 (PAL) (PAL 625/50) (4:3)

it will be different for ntsc ..(it will show (NTSC) instead of (PAL) the video will be a different size too ie not 720x576

[jesse40902]

also i did change the two files u told me too, but then its just the same files as video_ts and VTS_01_0 . Both of those are orginally ifo files...so even if you just switch the .bup to .ifo its its the same thing..nothing change

[psx_pirate]

yes the files are the same ... just the extension is different ... .BUP and .IFO ... it is a requirement of the dvd structure that there is a .IFO and a .BUP for each title set .. the .BUP is actually a backup of the .IFO (so they are identical) but you must have both in order to make a working dvd

[jesse40902]

These are my files:
VIDEO_TS ---this is ifo file
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VTS_01_0 ---this is ifo file
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_1
VTS_01_2
VTS_01_3
VTS_01_4

also if my file is in pal, i cant play in my dvd player as well? how u change from pal to ntsc setting?

those were my orginal files and those two are IFo's, so i dont think im missing the ifo's....

I think my file is in pal, which makes it unplayable on stanalones? any quick way to fix this?

[psx_pirate]

ok ... u should have said they were .IFO's ... and saved me half a day trying to explain how to rename the .BUP's ..... so you dou actually have all the needed files ... u should just be able to burn these by using the dvd video option in nero and dropping these files into the VIDEO_TS folder in neros explorer window (it will be in the left hand pane) ... you can use ifoedit to check if its pal or ntsc .... if its pal then you will need to re-encode ... this is a very complex operation ... so first check if it is needed by using ifoedit to find out if ur video is pal or ntsc

[jesse40902]

okay i got the idoedit how do i check now?
