I want to share this with you because I had so many problems getting started with this that I was about to go completely CRAZY over all the failed burns I did.

It is working now however I?m still not able to get the menu section with me to the new DVD I burn but I can choose Subtitles and change Chapters and Audio on the new disk.

The first thing I did was to use NERO to burn the DVD.
I tried every setting in that god damn program but every time I ended up with a disk that could not play in any DVD stand alone player or even in my PC?s DVD player.

After fooling around for a bit and wasting quite a few blank DVD?s I discovered that if I opened a VOB file directly from the DVD I burned it would play just fine ?What the fuc* is up with NERO?.

Then it was time to do a bit more reading on the Internet.
I ran across this page http://digital-forums.com/dvd2dvdr/part6.htm it has a step by step guide on how to burn a DVD with GEAR PRO.
I found the program version 6.1 somewhere and gave it a go.
When I was about to add the files to the layout I got an error stating that it could not find the VIDEO_TS.IFO file ?What the fuc* is that??.

So I thought of what I did when I ripped the movie.
I was ripping the original DVD with DVD Decrypter and after that I tried to burn it.

When I opened the folder with the rip in I had the VIDEO_TS folder and the AUDIO_TS folder but inside the VIDEO_TS folder there was no VIDEO_TS.IFO file.

I thought ?why not try to recompile it with DVD2ONE?.
After DVD2ONE finished I took a look in the VIDEO_TS folder and there was the famous VIDEO_TS.IFO and 2 BUP files ?what the fuc* is a BUP file?.

I opened the burn guide again and this time everything just ran smooth with no nag screens and after ½ hour I put the DVD disk in my stand alone player and everything just ran smoothly with no problems at all.

I know I don?t have the MENU screen with me but I'm getting tired of wasting DVD?s and the above worked for me.

I would be glad if you could tell me how you did it and what files you have in your VIDEO_TS folder before you start burning.

Thanks for reading all this crap.

you should have in VIDEO_TS:
VIDEO_TS.IFO
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VTS_01_0.IFO
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_1.VOB
VTS_01_2.VOB
VTS_01_3.VOB
VTS_01_4.VOB
VTS_01_5.VOB

and FYI, a BUP file is a backup IFO file, you still need it though

You wouldn't waste so much time and media if you would do your research first. Try reading these guides for starters.
