What in the world did you find objectionable to that? Long detailed description of his issue with a 'please' and 'appreciate' thrown in. And in fact, he said he did it once, so he was in need of reminding, not quite starting from scratch. I'd never used that software, otherwise I'd actually have a reply. You have a fight with the mrs last night?

Don't think this works with all players but it might be worth a shot. Very true, and quite common info among the videophiles.... Samsung Players (some), as well as Sony, can be "tricked" into playing PAL DVDs by doing this quick edit with ifoedit..... Keep in mind though that the dvd player must inherently have PAL to NTSC decoding of some kind built-in, usually for SVCD or VCD.

Thanks for the tip to use ifoedit to fool the DVD player. I also have a Sony and just used it on a PAL video.

I just use PowerDVD -> open DVD from a location rather than burning it.  |

I suppose that would work too, but I don't know if it is a region problem or a PAL problem. My cheesy DVD player makes no distinction (that I know of) it just says "cannot play due to region restriction" but it does this with PAL stuff too. It's an old DVD and only cost 10 bucks anyway.

Or you could use dvdshrink. Rename the folder VIDEO_TS and drag on. It'll make a nice iso or burn to a disk for you. And it'll strip region/unwanted stuff as well. |

That's what I would have thought, but for some reason it ain't so.
I did get the ImgToolBurn and created DVD however it is either wrong region or it is PAL, neither of which were noted in the torrent, but my computer will play it, DVD player will not.
I'm tired of jackin' with it. I ordered it from Amazon.

correct me if i'm wrong, but can't you just put those files into a VIDEO_TS folder and burn it onto a DVD along with an empty AUDIO_TS folder?

click the mode pull down, select ISO and then select write.
if you do not have an ISO and instead have the files that comprise the DVD then use ImgToolBurn to burn the DVD |

2 edits | OK,
Here is definitive proof that I'm a dumbass. I say this for several reasons, mainly because I have asked this same question in the past - I have found the answers to that question - I still can't make it work.
I know that these files will burn into a DVD that I can watch on my stand-alone player. Furthermore, I have done this before. For some reason (probably because I'm a dumbass) I can't seem to get DVD Decrypter or Nero to create a playable DVD outta these files. Hell, I can't even get DVD Decrypter to read these files. It seems to only want to read DVD drives. I know there is a way to change this "mode", but I'm having not much joy in this area. In my own defense, it has been some time since I last used DVD Decrypter.
Would someone please remind me of how to get DVD Decrypter to read this file set and burn a playable DVD outta these files? I would surely appreciate it.
Thanks,
-TC
See, more proof: I forgot the attachment, Duh.
