Great fan of DVD shrink and I only have one small gripe.

Whenever I re-author a disc and drag the main movie only over to copy to keep down the size/compression required I get a good copy of the movie but it always seems to start playing with the subtitles on. Not a major problem as I just use the remote to swith em off but still just a bit annoying.

Any tips on stopping this happening would be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks chaps

You can either not back up the subtitles in the first place or when you reauthor and drag or double click the title you want to back up, right click(mouse) on the title and click on set default streams. From here you can select to hide subscrupture. This should do the trick. You will also see you can set the default audio track if you don't want your dvd player to choose on its own. Hope this helps.

Just out of curiosity, what kind of dvd player are you using?

thanks for the tip re turnin 'em off wolf, i'll have to try and remember that. Virtually all my films do that with the subs (i only do movie only), but i just kill 'em via the remote. Only does it on my 2 Cyberhome ch-400's (bloody fantastic machine's but can i hell find any more of them!), my ps2 doesn't do this if i recall.

I use a Pacific player from Asda (Walmart)
sub £40 jobby but'll play owt you throw at it and A1 value for money.
As creaky says not a major problem as you just hit the remote but tis an annoyance.

When I burn my next one in the coming days I'll let you know if it did the trick.

i'm not sure if this will help but i used to have the same problem. i came to the conclusion that when i kept only the english subtitles they would automatically turn on but if i kept the english and at least one other subtitle they didn't turn on until i selected them.
