Chapter list problems

Post by DrJBN »

First, let me compliment this program. It's the best thing since sliced bread.

I cannot get chapters to work. I've searched the forums on the keyword "chapter" and do not see where anyone has had my particular problem, so I hope this is something very silly that I am overlooking.

Regardless of what I do, I get chapters every 5 minutes.


I'm using avi2dvd 0.4.4.
I am joining 4 avi's together. This process works great.
My episodes are 42 minutes long.
My output options are:
DVD,
Disc Sive DVD-5,
aspect 16/9,
"MAKE ISO" NOT CHECKED,
NO PAL/NTSC Conversion

I have tried the chapters both ways.

First two times, I tried the chapter list using 0, 2520, etc.

Third, I selected CHAPTER EVERY XX mintues, and i set that to 42.

All three times I got a nice DVD with all my episodes joined together, but my chapters are every 5 minutes.

The first time I noticed when it finished that on the AVI2DVD menu the checkbox had reverted to the "Chapter every xx min" option.

If I have a chapter list set up and I move to another tab (away from Step 3) , my list is gone when I return to the output tab.

The second time I set up everything, then returned to Step 2 and put in my chapter list before pressing go, and I still got a chapter every 5 minutes.

Third time I set everythign up, returned to Step 2 and used "Chapter ever xx min" with the value 42.

All three times I got a dvd with chapters every 5 minutes.

Am I missing something?

All the best, and thanks for the program.
