Please read all the information in this post and the sections it links to if you are having any problems with Mastering, SCSI or DLT support.

Need to replace SCSI Host Adapter

Hi DAE's fans,

Layer Break Problem

I just got a not from a client that the DLT I submitted was kicked out by Eclipse the error it gave was - “Seamless playback flag not set correctly at layer break"

DLT Problems

Hi,

i get a "Format Failed" Message while trying to put a DVD 5 (CMF with CSS, All Regions Allowed) to Tape.
The LogFile says "Format copy error detected in function Run at line 107 of file CTapeWriterThread.cp Note: WriteSmallFile failed"

The DLT is a Quantum DLT 4000 and it´s connected to a Atto UL4D.
System is a Dual G5 2 GHz Motorola, OS 10.4.11
DVD AE ME 3.05d3

Best regards,

Copying a non-protected DVD to disk-Drag or rip?

Hi

I have a lot of non-protected DVD5 that I need to dump to disk to remove old logos and stuff.
Is it the same to copy by dragging the VIDEO_TS folder to the hard drive or should I rip the disk with
MacTheRipper?
Sounds like a silly question, doesn't it?
Thanks in advance

How do I change the order of VTS's in a project without big hassle?

Hi guys,

I have a couple of DVD9 projects that consist of one or two VTS. There is really nothing fancy to do, except remove old warnings (sometimes in VMG, and sometimes in VTSM), and replace 4:3 studio ident with 16:9 one when appropriate.

Quits on Replace VTS

I downloaded the newest DVDAE ME version but I'm still having this problem, as soon as I select Replace VTS the program shuts down. Tried it on MBP and G5 Quad both have latest OS and QT installed.

Cannot read from DLT made by 3rd party

Hi guys.

I've got a couple of old projects on DLT made by another company, presumably in Scenarist 2.7.
When I'm trying to read the DLT's back using either DVDAE, or DDPAB I am getting an error message MISSING FILE MARK
Reading DDP failed.

How do I generate a 6 PGC VTS?

Hi

I have to replace one VTS in one of those dreaded all-in-one-VTS DVDs.
There's the FBI warning first, then the company logo, a publicity video and 3 50-minute video chapters. When I open the VIDEO_TS folder with AfterEdit,
I see one VTS with 6 PGCs.
