DVR-Studio Pro not showing the right content?

Beitrag von birbjo » 10.08.2006, 17:31

I have purchased DVR-Studio Pro and have transfered a few recordings from my Dilog DT-550. Recordings were transfered with USb-downloader.
This has worked fine.
Recently i transfered a recording and opened it in DVR-Studio were everything seemed OK, the recording seemed OK to be burnt on a DVD.
However when I watched the burnt DVD it contained ANOTHER recording from my PVR, a music video, which did NOT appear in DVR-Stdudio??

I removed this Music-video from my PVR, transfered the "original recording" again. All seemed OK in DVR Studio, when I glanced at the recording..NO music video appeared......So I burnt one more DVD...BUT the same music video appeared again, instead of my recording???
Why doesnt DVR Studio Pro work? This has costed me 4 DVD's as of now.
The recording is NOT encrypted.....
Please advise

@birbjo

this is strange. First of all: try to use DVD-RW or disable DVD burning until the problem is solved. Instead you can open the DVD-content in the VIDEO_TS folder directly to check if the right video is in. You can look up the path to the VIDEO_TS folder on the second page of the DVD-wizard.

I have three ideas that might have caused the problem:
1. another recording is in the batch-processing list, additional to the recording you want to have on DVD
2. The filename of the recording matches that of an older recording
3. You disabled the "demultiplex" step on the first page of the DVD-wizard. So the last demuxed content will be used instead of new one.

Hi!
You mean that I could use the DVR-Studio program without burning A DVD? Would that be the "Create MPEG File" in the program?
(Have no DVD-RW-disc, unfortunately).

The "batch-processing" is not checked, so I don't use it.(and it's empty too anyway).

The name could match that of an olderrecording? Possible! Is there any temp-files created that I could clear? Where might I find these? There's NO files on the place where the transfered recordings are stored after transfering.

Disabled DEMUX? No, that is still checked, to be used....

So the mystery still remains.....but I have feeling that Your Point No 2 is most interesting.

Ok, then rename the file and try again. Yes - "Create MPEG" is also a way to check what the video will look like. Although it is not entirely the same.

Just uncheck "Burn DVD" on the first page of the DVD-Wizard and then have a look at the VIDEO_TS folder.

Ok, did that, renamed the file AFTER it was transfered over to the PC.
Checked it with DVR-Studio Pro..it seemed perfect. Used the DVD-wizard, without burning....but STILL got the distorted VIDEO_TS-file....this is SO strange!
Is there anything else I can try?

Now this has happened again......the .hav-file that I process doesn't
"match" the created VIDEO_TS-files!!!!

There MUST be some TEMP-files stored somewhere, that interferes
with the create DVD.process!!

I'm transfering a movie, "White Nights" and the created VIDEO_TS -file shows a 14 second long distorted cut from "Midsummer Murders"!

The original file is some 3,5Gb large and the largest VTS_01_1.VOB-file
is only some 180MB large....14 seconds long!!

WHY? What can I do?

PLEASE HELP!

You can make sure that all temporary files are deleted by selecting "Remove temporary files" on the 3rd Page of the DVD-Wizard.

But I think the problem is something else. Are there any error messages shown when using "Demultiplex"? Especially in the logging-section of the progress window?

Hi!
"Remove temporary files" is chosen, so that isn't causing the problem.

Theres no messages during demuxing, this is what I "get":

Demuxing
Title 1
User forced Aspect ratio to 16:9
Create VOBs:
Title 1
Placing nav-packs...
Creating menu

..and then the "small" .VOB-file is created.....
:cry:

I wrote "when using Demultiplex" ;). That is the button below the DVD-Wizard. That function performs just demultiplexing and shows more messages. Most errors happen at that stage.

OK, now I have "demultiplexed"......

Got a whole number of messages like
Detected TS packet sequence error @0x00000000 23FE0E30 , where the red text differed

and only 1 row at the end like:
Not a valid TS-packet found at position 0x00000000 24162C22

can any conclusions be drawn from this?

Regards....

It looks like starting from a certain file position no valid data is found inside the recording. That is in this case at about 576 MByte of size. How long is the file? Can you copy the original file from the receiver again? Maybe something went wrong...

The file is some 3,3Gb large. I have transfered it....probably 4 times.
Same problem all the time.
I'm removing a part in the beginning of the recording, maybe I should try
WITHOUT that?

Yes try that, but I'm not too optimistic.
Does this recording play well in the receiver? Without Pay-TV card (if any is needed)?

Hi!
Well, as suspected, no change if I skipped the iniatial Cut-sequence...same problem.

Yes, in the receiver all is well, I can watch the movie there without problem.

Ok , I can accept that sometimes things doesn't work as suspected, but the thing that makes me a bit "irritated" is the fact that I can see the movie within DVR Studio Pro, and YET the created DVD-files contains something completely different....:-(
There seems to be some sort of information that DVR Studio Pro uses during the creation of the "DVD-files" that causes another, discarded file
to be used.
