TMHKR Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Look at these pictures below, it's the Fellowship of the Ring (Special Extended Edition) Disc 3 and Disc 4. Where to put the layer break, anywhere? Somewhere in the middle?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 There are probably better / more obvious places than the ones you're showing in the pictures. What does the start of the VTS_04 chunk look like?
TMHKR Posted January 17, 2011 Author Posted January 17, 2011 Chunk? If you mean, what's in the preview of that cell, it's an interactive map of Middle-Earth (that's why it's 00:00:00 in length). There are some blue and yellow stars near the top of that list.
LIGHTNING UK! Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Noooo, just the start of the items that list VTS_04 in the File/VTS column.
TMHKR Posted January 18, 2011 Author Posted January 18, 2011 I'm a total noob about DVD-Video structure, I don't get it... Here's a picture of the beginning of that list.

TMHKR Posted January 18, 2011 Author Posted January 18, 2011 OK, just one more for the end: should I break all other discs the same way - by selecting the IFO file (if there's one on the list, with "N/A" in it's columns)? I'm asking that, because there are no IFO files to choose on first and second disc.
Cynthia Posted January 18, 2011 Posted January 18, 2011 I would do it in this order. The most "legend" (Green -> and then the lower colours) Go for the one with N/A in the SPLIP column, meaning it's between physical files. If it's just after a shift of VTS (like in the example LUK gave you) Somewhere close to 50/50 If you see the another color other than green you will end up with something that has video in it. Try to select the first one (the start of the video) rather than in the middle of the video of the same VTS. If you need to pick one in the middle of the video, play the stuff and see how "disturbing" it would be with a slightly pause there (where the laser switches layer). If you player supports it, enable the Seamless option that you see in the upcoming build windows (after you have selected on layer break point here) you should not notice the layer break at all, even if it's in the middle of the video. Most modern players support that function. You can burn one that you know have the layer break in the video and when it plays over the layer break you will notice if you can spot the switch or not on your TV.
