DVD-lab Pro 2 Help

Post by MasterSandman II »

I have authored a DVD with DVD-lab pro and I'm having some problems.

The menus, chapters, and audio seem to work perfectly but the video doesn't work. The chapters will skip and I can hear the audio but the video just freezes and doesn't do anything. I can view the .vob files separately and they work perfectly fine.

What should I do? Try again?

I have had a very similar problem w/ the same program. My issue was that everything compiled fine. I had clips of 2 shows as a bonus, which played fine. The main video, however, previewed fine when I put in the chapter points, and after compiling and successful burning, the bonus' came out fine, but the main vid was only about 30 seconds long, then went dead :angry:

Unfortunately I never found a solution. The word on the street is that DVD-Lab Pro 2 has had many complaints of bugs. Let us know if you can find a solution. I iwsh I could be of better help. I would try it again. Good thing about this program is the compiling and burning don't usually take too long. Good luck Man.

Your problem may be that you haven't demuxed your VOB files into elementary streams. DVD-Lab is screwy sometimes, and will act up.
Try running it through VideoReDo TV Suite

Click on the "Open Video" link. Select all the VOB files. The program will then ask you what you want to do. Click on "combine". This will merge the individual VOB files into one large file. Once the video is in, simply "save as". This will demux the VOB files into mpv format. Add the new video to asset bin, then do as you would normally do. I'm far from an expert, but I think this will solve your problem. Try it and let us know.
