AnyDVD says DL Images Not Mastered Correctly

[calweycn]

I have tried using ImgBurn to create a dual layer image with seamless layer break.

Every time I mount the image in Daemon-Tools, AnyDVD says "This Video-DVD is

mastered incorrectly. AnyDVD will be deactivated for this DVD."

 

EDIT: This problem happens even if I leave the seamless option unchecked.

 

I've never had this error before and have been using seamless layer breaks in the

past through PGC Edit and just burning DVD Shrink Images. (They play fine in my

stand-alone machines.) Any ideas what might be wrong here?

 

SuperBit and many Criterion DVDs have seamless layer break, which proves that

players can handle it. I've never seen AnyDVD report this problem with Criterion

or SuperBit DVD titles, so this isn't normal. Something is broken.

And here. It'll be fixed very soon.

Thanks, I hadn't seen that yet, but I saw blutarch's article which doesn't really sound like

the same problem. PGC Edit doesn't report any problem with the image when I mount it

in Daemon-Tools. It may just be AnyDVD that sees a problem. Or the DVDs might be off

spec somehow. I haven't been able to find much about the error message. The images

play OK, but I don't want to risk burning until this is fixed.

 

If it helps, I made the files with DVD Shrink, Re-Author Mode. Then I created an image

with IB2 build mode. I'm sure LUK would have tested re-authored files. This may apply

to all dual layer images. It doesn't seem to be a critical problem, but I haven't tested it

with any stand-alone players. Hopefully it's minor and can be fixed.

Nope, LUK wouldn't have tested reauthored files.

 

LUK doesn't really need to because files are files where he is concerned.

 

LUK is pretty sure it's just that one offset in the IFO the mucks things up.

 

LUK only changes a handful of offsets in the IFO and so for programs to complain about authoring issues, it's gotta be one of those that's causing it.

It's just dam bad LUK.

You could have stated your response without all the useless repetition of

your initials. I've learned that AnyDVD doesn't complain if I make an ISO

with ImgBurn directly. Why wouldn't the error happen there too? Maybe

it's caused by an interaction with other programs. I use ..., Shrink, and

PGC Edit for most of my back-ups. Thanks much.

Ok - I'll say it.

 

Blutach thinks you're a dickhead, who, despite repeated protestations in several threads from LUK! and others asking you not to talk about rippers on this forums for legal reasons, continues to debate the point like a brainless twit (did I say "like a"?)

 

Why the hell keeping asking about AnyDVD? What do we know about it (other than it is overpriced)? Go ask James or send an email to Slysoft. You paid for AnyDVD, bugger off and get support from their offical forum at CD Freaks, not here.

 

Same goes for DVDFab.

 

That's what blutach thinks.

 

I do hope it's clear.

I'm not debating anything. I'm saying that the problem doesn't occur if I make an

ISO from the disc with ImgBurn. I am trying to isolate what's causing the problem.

LUK's theory doesn't explain why the problem happens one time and not another.

$38 for life time upgrades is hardly overpriced. I haven't asked anything about

AnyDVD. I provided information about how to reproduce a bug. AnyDVD doesn't

report "incorrect mastering" when I use Imgburn to make an ISO directly. So, I

think some other software might need to be considered. Asking AnyDVD would

achieve nothing, since AnyDVD isn't producing the image.

 

Same goes for DVDFab.

 

I only mention the programs to show how I produced the error. The error does

not occur when I make an ISO with ImgBurn directly. It occurs when I use it on

files generated by other programs. If ImgBurn produces DL images that aren't

mastered correctly, then it produces DL images that aren't mastered correctly.

Flinging invective does nothing but discredit yourself. Regards?!?

Then it is not something for this Forum. ImgBurn is clearly working as it should.

 

What AnyDVD (or D-Tools) reports is not our business or concern.

 

As for invective, after so many repeated pleas to stay away from this crap, you need a good dressing down. My 12 year old wouldn't go on like you do.

No, it's not. LUK admitted that it was a problem and someone in another thread

said that it would be fixed soon. It's a problem caused by ImgBurn's Build Mode

messing up DL images created from hard drive files. The problem is caused by

ImgBurn and introducing mastering errors.

 

What AnyDVD (or D-Tools) reports is not our business or concern.

If the images are not mastered correctly, then that is your problem or concern.

It doesn't matter what program reports it. That's completely irrelevant. Either

the images/discs are mastered correctly or they're not. I have found they are

not mastered correctly when I create images from files on disk. That reduces

my faith in the program and I'm sure others react the same. I will not use the

program for creating dual layer discs until this issue is fixed. I think that is a

valid position to take, unless you show my concerns are unfounded.

LUK specifically told me that this thread was on-topic. You are totally off-base,

and off-topic. The software is buggy and I'm not going to apologize for saying

that it is. It works great if you don't care about dual layer. I would prefer that

my discs not have mastering errors reported. That's just me, though. I'm not

"going on" about anything. I added some information and you attacked me in

a totally off-topic and hostile manner. If I am off-base, why are my posts not

deleted? Maybe your 12 year old has a problem thinking for himself. Maybe

you're just using hyperbole to make your points.

[LIGHTNING UK!]

It's not a dual layer problem, it goes for an disc where the program has to apply padding to the IFO/BUP.

 

It has been fixed (and that has been mentioned several times).

 

Just wait patiently for the next version.
