Patching NTSC MPEG For Authoring Onto PAL Disc

[barneystorm]

I've used DVD Patcher for many years now- great handy tool for sure.

However, I'm now getting a problem I've never had before. I'm patching an NTSC MPEG2 so I can author it to disc (In TMPGenc DVD Author) along with several other PAL MPEG2 files. Each of the files is in their own folder in TDA. Patching is fine, TDA accepts it just fine-the DVD authoring runs fine, then I get to the final stage of re-patching the vob file created during authoring back to NTSC (It's under 1GB so it only needs the one .vob patching).

When I now playback the files created in Power DVD, the NTSC file plays just fine until about 80% of the way through then the picture freezes, though the sound continues.

I'vetried this several times now and each time, the same thing happens at exactly the same point. It's not a fault on the NTSC MPEG as I've tried authoring just that on it's own and it authors perfectly.

Anyone any thoughts where I'm going wrong??
