Ooops...

I figured out how it's supposed to be. Things are different in software than on a real DVD. (I hadn't burned it yet.)
Everything is correct.

Well, the movie timer is all FUBAR, but that might be because of how I ripped the video. The video ripped to two files, then I merged them with tmpgenc mpeg editor. Anyone else have timer troubles? It's not a major problem for me. I mean we all know the film is 2:20, right? Everything else is correct.

The directions state that you need to rip the video/audio from your official DVD and insert them with the files you downloaded.

My problem is that I followed the directions to a "T" and I still get errors. For example, playing the movie from the subtitle option screen makes the DVD stop. Other problems are that the first subtitle is the official subs, not the BotW subs, etc.

You have to take into account that the X0 DVD’s will using hungry PCM soundtracks unlike most commercial DVD’s.


Exactly my point. Making a DVD with 2 hours of video with PCM audio just fills a dual layer disc.

What is the deal with NFO files?

No "official" product has an nfo file. Is there some kind of "law" that everything that is a "bootleg" so to speak must have this nfo file? I think a regularly named text file would be better.


Get Damn NFO Viewer and you'll see the difference. Trust me.

I'd LOVE to see a compilation of Cartoon Network's 2 Stupid Dogs. This was the show that Craig McCracken and Genndy Tartatosky "cut their teeth" on before Powerpuff Girls and Dexter's Lab. It's also one funny show. I recently downloaded the shows from usenet, but the audio is off, and the picture is compressed.

Any takers? I believe they are showing it currently on Boomerang... still no official release.
