*STICKY* Mastering and DLT Issues

DVDAE's mastering capabilities have been proven again and again over the years. However there are a few known issues and gotchas which you should be aware of - development is now focused on HDAfterEdit and the new DLT tape utility. 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.

*Sticky* Guidelines - please read this before posting

Before posting your question please check the Release Notes and Frequently Asked Questions. There is also some important information in the Inside DVDAfterEdit section.

For Mastering Edition users, the information about Why Adaptec SCSI Cards should not be used is required reading.

Layer break not where DVDAE says it is

I've aged a lot in the last few days!
I've got a job here which is freezing in a certain Pioneer player at the same point every time BECAUSE a seamless layer break is being placed there without my permission. The authoring (in DVD SP) clearly tells the layer break to occur on a designated cell and NOT to be seamless.

Bad replicator ?

Larry, is it possible that a DDP image (DVD-9 w/ CSS) that I created with DAE, verified and burned a DVD+R DL from that for testing, showed no errors, but the replicator can't seem to be able to create a DVD+R DL with the DVD-R's (Layer 0/1) I sent to him ? Although Eclipse Analysis passed.

Replicator Rejection

Hi Folks

We sent two DVD-Rs to a replicator each containing the same DDP 2.0 image for a single layer title. Were now getting fatal errors from their Eclipse analysis:

location: 196,608 Input shorter than expected
location: 2,413,135 Unreadable sector in file
location: 2,413,391 Unreadable sector in file

Seamless Playback flag

Hi,

Can you explain to me why, when I mount a disc image created from a DDP (dual layer) and I open it with DAE, it popups a message telling me that it has converted seamless playback flag to non-seamless because it is the chosen layer break ? I already did that before creating the DDP, the cell was non-seamless.

VOBU length & number of sectors disagree

I just read 2 posts about this issue but I'm not sure if it's exactly what I got.

I got the Eclipse report saying this error with DSI higher than Actual value. I then ran a Compare of the DDP with the VIDEO_TS and Disc Image. Both tests failed with the same log error. Here is the last few lines:

File name VTS_02_1.VOB Offset 0261dc9f

DLT OUTPUT ISSUE

Hi everybody...

Finally We've bought DVDafteredit this morning
I'm trying to format my first DLT set but it does'nt work...

Everything is OK until I hit "Start" in the format panel.
the tape is being loaded normally...
"Writing Control Info..."
"Writing Control Files..."
nothing seems to happen at this point

Macrovision RipGuard Issues

Hi All,

I have recently been made aware of a potential issue with AE and the latest version of RipGuard and I was hoping for some help.

I supplied a project for replication that was flagged for CSS and Macrovision Type 2 - RipGuard to be added at the factory.

The replicator contacted me saying there was a problem and that RipGuard could not be applied.

Making the remote "Next" or "Skip" work in a project

Hi guys

I have a release I'm working on where after the legalese and logos there're 3 different trailers that couldn't be skipped.
I ok'd all the UOPs on each one, and I can jump from anyone of them to the Menu, but I cannot make the Next or Skip button work.
