Adding fast forward/rewind to dvds...

[yodandy]

Whenever I make a dvd with nero, the ff/rw never works on either of my standalones...

is there a value i can edit somewhere in an .ifo somewhere to fix this?

I'd also like to know how this is done.

Have never had this problem with Nero, only with Sonic MyDvd ver 3.5 , the problem seemed to trace back to audio used by sonic.

What are the file properties?
I also have NOT used Nero to author, just to burn

[yodandy]

what file properties are you looking for?

The player rejects the speed of the recordable disc in use. Has zero connection to the burn or Nero.

I had been frustrated with this problem for some time no matter how and in what software I used to create my DVD's. When trying out the TMPGEnc DVD authoring software it choked on my MPEG2 files telling me that to be compliant they needed a sequence header before every GOP. I went into my encoding software and made the change and viola fast forward and rewind work just like they are supposed to.

Hope this is of help . . .

Has something to do with the IMPLEMENTATION of the DVD spec in the particular authoring platform your working with.. (but you knew that)
What I've found

Programs that allow ff rew
Sonic DVD Architect
Adobe Encore
Spruce UP

Programs that bite
My DVD
Sonic Reel DVD
DVDit LE and SE don't know about PE

i succeeded to use ref/fwd with svcds burn by nti cd maker, and dvds burn with dvdlab. in both cases the mpegs were created with tmpegenc.
