scicarb, pytivo errors for me on the sample ifo files you sent me. It might take me a while to figure out why. Are you sure that all this is all the ifo files? Where did you get the files from?
In terms of the other issue are you running the latest version of my git? There was a bug in an earlier version to do with the admin console...

No problem on the IFO files, I have the DVDs and can re-rip them. If that doesn't work I'll just transcode them to mp4. The problem has not occurred with the last four DVD's I bought and put out on the share so they may be bad files.
I will download the latest git and update it tonight. The file I used is : lucasnz-042bff61ec47dfe3e7f38d5144b3f6a93d27dac2.zip. I'll clean up everything out of the pytivo path just to be sure.

042bff61ec47dfe3e7f38d5144b3f6a93d27dac2.zip seems to be the latest version... So if you are already running that then there's no need to upgrade... I'm not really sure what would be causing this issue for you. What happens if you select the different sections on the left? And what browser are you running?
In terms of the issue with several of your DVDs can you re-copy them using DVD decrypter; http://www.dvddecrypter.org.uk/
Let me know if that helps..

Thank you for the help. I replaced the pytivo files and that fixed the admin page issue. The re-ripped DVD folders have no issues, so the Ito files must have been bad. All is good. Thanks again.[/u]

Today I ripped two DVDs with DVDFab, main movie only and neither were processed by the dvd plugin. I am going to rip them using dvddecrypter and see what the results are. I suspect that DVDFab is creating the IFO files that the plugin cannot process. I don't know why some work and others don't.

Ran IFOedit and the IFO files it created work fine. I am pm'ing those to you as well so you can compare. So DVD Decrypter and DVDFab must be doing something to the IFO files when creating a main movie only extract from the DVD.

|

This plugin has been working great for the majority of my dvds.
I have quite a few foreign dvd's with subtitles and obviously these won't show the english subtitles using this DVD plugin. Would there be anyway to accomplish this?
The only thing I've been able to do to get these to work is to use other tools to re-encode the subtitles into the video and use the standard pytivo video plugin. I'd love to be able to use the dvdvideo plugin somehow so I can just rip the dvd and not have all of the extra steps...

As far as I'm aware ffmpeg doesn't support subtitles. That would be the only way of embedding the subtitles (of course this would mean you'd need to transcode the video making the transfer slower). There doesn't seem to be a way of sending soft subtitles to the Tivo, they need to be hard-coded.

| One might be able to convert subtitles to closed captions that TiVo does understand. Of course the hitch is I think the subtitles in a DVD are images not words, so that would be quite a hurdle.

As I said in my previous post, "There doesn't seem to be a way of sending soft subtitles to the Tivo they need to be hard-coded".
In other words you can't send directly to the Tivo as you suggest.

This isn't quite true. T2SAMI has a method to insert an srt/smi subtitle file into a MPEG2 stream as a closed caption. I have tried it, and it does work, but I have also had timing issues with it. It may be possible to work with the author (jmemmott, he is pretty good about writing back about his program on the Tivo Community Forums) to make it somewhat more robust.
Having said that, I agree that hard coding the subtitles is easier than trying to inject them into the MPEG2 stream. And MPEG2 is the only format that I have seen US Tivos decode closed captions. I have heard reports that Aussie Tivos are able to decode closed captions from H.264/TS files, but I don't know how that is done or if US Tivos are capable. I haven't been able to get soft subbed H.264/mp4 files to display captions.

| I can't see how that would be possible. There is no concept of chapters on the Tivo.
