Question About Dvds

Post by dmegametal#1 »

my questions is regarding DVD shows that are not properly tracked right...i recieved a bunch of DVDs of Exodus and Anthrax/Overkill/Agent Steel Metal Roadshow..and when i skip tracks it says that i'm watching track 5/16 when it's only the 2nd song..and ORIGINALLY there should be only 14songs NOT 16..now what happened when that person made the DVD???

Also when i skip tracks..it skips into half the song that I was just watching!

It sounds like they didn't add correct chapters when they made the DVD.

Most standalone DVD-Recorders (used for putting VHS and Camcorder tapes to DVD) just set each chapter at the 5minute mark automatically.
