That's what I meant, yes.

So, I hope you "makers" favour the dual layer format

Oh, I have a bootleg question, I'd be glad if someone helped me out...

I have the Farsight set (Farsight uploaded them to myspleen) - is this the same thing as the DrGonzo set ? Or is the DrGonzo set something else ?

Anyway, regarding the Farsight set --- I can't seem to get neither Empire Strikes Back nor Return of the Jedi to play on standalone DVD players. I tried three different players but they just won't play, they try to start but stop right there. I guess the files that the DVD player first loads aren't "linked" properly to the .VOBs (or something ...?) Media Player Classic plays the whole movies fine if I open the .ifo file with it. But I'd like to get these to work on standalone players, too.

How do I fix this ?

A New Hope plays fine.

This is how I've burned them:

- Open Nero and select new dvd-video.
- Copy all the torrented files (.bups, .ifos, and .vobs) to the VIDEO_TS directory and burn.

Is this how it should be done ? I've never had this kinda problems before... this method worked with A New Hope and all of the TR47 discs. The only ones that do not play are the Farsight versions of RotJ and ESB.

I posted this plea for help on myspleen too, but I don't think there's much people reading the comments...

Any advice would be welcome
