Quick Start Guide
DVD Structure and Navigation Basics
Ripping a DVD
Getting to Know the User Interface

The Domain Content View

The Quick Start Guide is designed to get you started remaking DVD's. It includes guides on some of the common tasks. The best way to learn
something is to do it. After doing a few projects, you should become more familiar with the user interface and will see how doing even complex
tasks is simple with DvdReMake Pro!

The Quick Start Guide contains the following sections:
DVD Structure and Navigation Basics
Ripping a DVD
Getting to Know the User Interface
Basic Editing
Remove warnings, trailers, studio logos, etc.
Remove audio or subtitle streams
Strip unwanted angles
Merge multiple DVD's into one

Burning Your Remade DVD

Sorry, at the time this manual was released, this section was incomplete. We hope to finish it soon and include it in a future version of the manual.
For best results, you should import DVD files into DvdReMake from a folder on your hard drive. If you want to work on a DVD that you have
authored, you can import it prior to burning it to a disk. If the DVD is already on a disk, it should be copied to a hard drive folder before
importing into DvdReMake Pro. This process is usually called "ripping." Most commercial DVD's are encrypted with a method called Content
Scrambling System (CSS). DvdReMake Pro does not work with encrypted DVD's. It is your responsibility to determine whether decrypting a DVD
is legal or not, in the country in which you live.
The DVD Tree that is shown on the left-side of DvdReMake's user interface shows a hierarchal view of the structure of the DVD
that you are working on. The DVD Tree acts as the control center for your project. When you select an item the DVD in the tree,
the appropriate view opens to show the contents of that item.

There are four main views:

1. Domain Content View
2. PGC View
3. VMG Titles View
4. VTS Titles View

With DvdReMake, you are in complete control of the layout of the interface. You can easily move, dock, hide, or otherwise
rearrange almost any part of the interface. See Customizing the User Interface for more information.

Below are screenshots of the Domain Content View and the PGC View, which is where most of your editing will take
place. If you hover your mouse cursor over an item in one of the screenshots, a tooltip will appear showing the
item's name. If you click on an item, you will be taken to that item's entry in the reference section of this manual.

Basic Editing
PGC View

Welcome to the Basic Editing portion of the manual. In the subsections, you will find the most common tasks when using DvdReMake Pro. If you
are new to the DVD Authoring world, you are highly recommended to go through each section so you can be familiar with the program, as well as
learn some of the terminologies used in this program. New features are discussed as well.

Currently, these are the guides. More will be added as the need arises.
Merge multiple DVDs into one
Remove warnings, trailers, studio logos, etc.

One of the most common uses for DvdReMake is to remove unwanted material. The material might be removed to save space on your remade
DVD, or maybe just because you don't want to see it.

In most cases the best way to remove material is to use one of DvdReMake's hide functions. You can actually delete the unwanted material with
DvdReMake Pro, but this requires that you adjust the navigation of the disk to preserve playback. When you hide stuff, and you have
DvdReMake's "Auto bypass" option enabled, navigation will automatically be adjusted to skip over the hidden material. DvdReMake replaces the
block(s) that you choose to hide with blank video(s). These blank videos are so small that they have virtually no impact on the final disk's size.
As you will see, hiding stuff is very easy with DvdReMake.

Before we get started, please note that it is your responsibility to determine if removing warning screens is legal in the country in
which you live.

OK, let's get started...It is assumed that you have already imported your DVD. The first thing that you should do is to make sure that you have
the Auto Bypass option enabled. To do this, go to "Options" in the "Tools" menu...

And the options dialog appears...

Ok, now let's find what you want to remove. Often, warning screens and studio logos are in the Video Manager Domain (VMG), but they can also be
in a Video Title Set (VTS). Trailers are usually in a VTS. Probably the easiest way to find the things that you want to remove is to select the VMG or a
VTS in the DVD Tree, which opens it in the Domain Content View. The Domain Content Pane allows you to quickly scan through the blocks that the
selected domain contains.

Here is an example. Let's suppose that we want to remove warnings from a disk. We've imported the disk, so now let's select the Video Manager...


If you need to, you can select a block and preview it in the Video/Audio/Subtitle Preview. But here, right away we can see warning screens in three
different languages. We're going to hide all three of them. Hiding the blocks couldn't be easier. You could simply right-click on each block in the
Domain Content Pane and select "Hide Block" as shown below.

But since we want to hide the first three blocks, there is an easier way. Just right-click on the 4th block and select "Hide blocks before this," and all
three of the unwanted blocks will be hidden at once.

And this is what you end up with...

That's all there is to it. Since we have the "Auto bypass" option enabled, the disk's navigation will automatically be adjusted so the hidden blocks are
skipped over during playback.

Now you can remove additional material if you wish to. Blocks can also be hidden in the Programs Pane of the PGC View. Also, if you find a PGC
where you want to hide everything that it contains, you can right-click on it in the DVD Tree and select "Hide all blocks." Similarly, if you select "Hide
all blocks" on a VTS in the DVD Tree, then all blocks in all PGC's of the VTS will be hidden (not including menu PGC's). The menu PGC's can be
hidden by right-clicking on their Menu Language Unit and selecting "Hide all blocks."

You can now do some additional editing if you wish, but before you burn your remade disk, you can do a test export to make sure that you hid
everything that you wanted to.

One of the new features of DvdReMake Pro v3 is the ability to remove/disable audio and subtitle streams. This basic guide will
demonstrate how to do just that.

The purpose is to remove streams that you don't need, and to reduce the size of the DVD so it can fit on a DVD-5 (Single layer disc).
If it does not fit, then use another program to shrink or re-encode to fit on a DVD-5. At least this way, the quality will be better than
if unwanted streams had not removed. See: Burning Your Remade DVD.

Usually, when performing this procedure, you will also want to hide or delete the corresponding button in the Audio / Subtitle menu
of the DVD. But it is safest just to hide the button, so you can retain navigational structure. If you delete, you might have to modify
the navigational structure. This method is only for advanced users, who know what they are doing. The details of hiding the buttons
won't be discussed here, as it is not the focus.

To the task at hand, there are 2 ways to remove streams:
1. Disable track in all PGC's
2. Delete Track

These 2 options are available via context menu (by right-clicking) in the Audio Tracks Pane or the Subpicture Tracks Pane, which are
displayed when clicking on a VTS, "Program Chains," or a PGC in the DVD Tree.

To show how these 2 options work, and when it is safe to do so, two scenarios are given. One is for a single PGC in the VTS, the
other is for multi-PGC's in the VTS.

Scenario 1 (single PGC)

Disable Track

Figure 1

This is the original VTS (single PGC). Looking at the size, this is
most likely the movie.

Notice the Track number in Figure 1 matches that of Figure 1a in
both Audio and Subpicture Tracks pane. The same can be said for
the Stream number.

The Info column reveals the stream info as well as the stream ID,
e.g. 0x80.

In the Subpicture Tracks pane, there are 2 stream IDs in 1 track.
What does this mean? If you double-click one of the tracks in Figure
1a, you'll notice that each stream corresponds to the Wide,
Pan/Scan, or Letterbox view. Usually, this applies to wide-screen
movies. Only 1 stream number can be displayed, depending on the
setting of the dvd player, and the type of TV (wide - 16x9, or full -
4x3).

If it is a full-screen movie, then the stream corresponds to Normal
view.

Figure 1a

Figure 2

"Disable track in all PGC" functionality is different from the
Domain Content View than it is in the PGC View. If you
disable a track in the Domain Content View, you are actually
disabling that track from all PGC's. But if you disable a
track from the PGC View, you only disable that track in the
selected PGC.

Delete Track

Scenario 2 (multi-PGC)

Since this is a single-PGC VTS, it does not matter which
view you perform this operation in.

By disabling the track, the stream is removed, but the
stream info is retained. This is how other DVD re-
authoring tools do it, e.g. Nero Recode, DVDShrink, and
DVD Rebuilder, to name a few. The purpose is to retain
functionality when selecting a disabled track via Audio or
Subtitle menu. If selected, since the track is not there, it
usually defaults to the first track.

In Figures 2 and 2a, notice Audio Tracks 2 & 3 are zero
byte-size and indicate "not used" under Stream column.
The same applies to Subpicture Tracks 1-3.

Figure 2a

Figure 3

"Delete track" is available only in the Domain Content View,
and is enabled only in the last track in the Audio and
Subtitle Tracks panes.

When you delete a track, the track is removed and all
streams that were used by the track are removed
(unless they are used in other tracks).

So in Figure 1, you would start from Track 3, deleting the
track, and work your way up until you stop at the track you
want to keep.

Notice that the VTS and PGC sizes in Figures 2 and 3, are
basically the same. In Figures 3 and 3a, notice the stream
info is removed.

Figure 3a

Figure 4

Figure 4a

Figure 4b

This is an example of an original multi-PGC VTS, which consists of 6 PGC's. Apparently, PGC 1 is the movie. PGC 2 is the company logo. PGC 3
and 4 are the FBI and International Warnings. PGC 5 is the Rating screen. And PGC 6 is the movie trailer.

In Figure 4, Audio and Subpicture Tracks info are shown for all PGC's. This means that not all PGC's contain the same stream info.

Disable Track

Delete Track

Hopefully, this guide will help you get started in making use of these 2 new features in DvdReMake Pro. Have fun in re-authoring
your custom DVD the way you like it.

So, in PGC 1, Figure 4a, the movie contains only 2 audio tracks, Track 0 & 1, and 3 subtitle tracks. PGC 6 contains only Audio track 2 as shown
in Figure 4b. Furthermore, PGC's 2-5 consist of the same Audio track info as shown in Figure 4a, and the same Subpicture track info as shown in
Figure 4b.

Note that even though track info is present in a PGC, it does not mean that there is really an audio or subtitle stream in that PGC.
In this example, PGC's 3-5 have no audio stream, and PGC's 2-6 have no subtitle stream.

In a multi-PGC VTS, disabling and deleting a track is a little tricky. There are two methods discussed below.

Figure 5

As already mentioned in Disable Track of Scenario 1, there is a
difference in whether you disable a track in The Domain Content
View or the PGC View, so take note of that.

In Figure 4, you cannot simply disable Audio track 2, as PGC 6
(shown in Figure 4b) contains that track. But you can disable
other tracks. As shown in Figures 5 and 5a, Audio track 1 and
Subpicture tracks 1 & 2 are disabled at the VTS level. This will
affect all PGC's.

To practice disabling at the PGC level, you could go each PGC to
preview if there's really any audio or subtitle stream. Just select
the stream in the Audio or SubPicture Tracks Pane, and press play
in the Video/Audio/Subtitle Preview. In this example, audio track
0 can be disabled in PGC 3-5 as they are just Warning and Rating
screens, and subpicture track 0 can be disabled in PGC 2-6 as
there aren't really any subtitles.

Figure 5a

Figure 6

As for when Delete Track option is appropriate for multi-PGC
scenario, you must preview each PGC to see if there's really any
audio and subtitle streams. As a reminder, this option is enabled
only in the last track and only at the VTS level.

In Figure 4, Audio track 2 cannot be deleted as PGC 6 needs it.
Audio track 1 cannot be deleted either, as the option is disabled.
But Subpicture tracks 1 & 2 can.

As shown in Figure 6 and 6a, combinations of "Disable Track" and
"Delete Track" methods are used at the VTS level. You can also
disable track at the PGC level as well, as described in the previous
table above.

Figure 6a

There are some DVD's that have multi-angles involved. When viewing, only one angle will be used based on the language selection. Angle selection
can also be switched by pressing the Angle button on the remote. But sometimes, you're not able to do that, due to angle selection being disabled
in the Prohibited User Operations field.

In this brief guide, I will show you how to strip unwanted angles, and keep only one angle.

Figure 1

With the DVD imported, click on the movie VTS, which is usually the one that contains the largest size in the DVD Tree, as shown in 1. One quick
way to know if the VTS has angles, is to right-click on the VTS. This will pop up the context menu, shown in Figure 2. If "Strip angles" selection is
not grayed out, that means there are angles involved.

Another way is to scroll through the blocks in the Domain Content View, as shown in 2, until you see ILVU MA displayed in the upper left corner of
the block. In the lower left corner of the block, pgc1: c61,c62,c63 indicates that in PGC 1, there are three cells showing different angles of the same
block. Only one cell can be played at a time. With this block highlighted, you'll also able to preview it in the Domain Content Preview, as shown in
3, selecting which angle (ilvu 1,2,3) you want to play.

One of the new features of v3, is that you're able to hear sound and see subtitles when playing. Remember to select the Stream number, not the
Track number. Notice also in the upper right corner of the Domain Content Preview, it displays the VOBU (Video OBject Unit) info. This is more
accurate than what was previously displayed as GOP (Group Of Pictures) closed or not closed, as shown in v2. Last but not least, audio and
subpicture stream info are displayed as well. You'll notice the stream ID (0x80, 0x20) changes as you change the stream number.

Now that you're familiarized with the terminology and what each content means, let's get started.

1. Right-click on the VTS, and select "Strip angles", as shown in Figure 2.
2. A "Select angle" window dialog pops up (Figure 3). Preview each angle to see which one you want to keep.
3. With the angle selected, click on "Keep this" button.

Figure 2

Figure 3
Merge Multiple DVDs Into One

Figure 4

Now compare the differences in Figure 1 with Figure 4. Notice anything different? Of course, there is.
1. The PGC size and the size of the whole DVD is reduced, as shown in 1.
2. The block in the Domain Content Pane now shows edited state. The cell pgc1: c49 is renumbered, and contains only one cell, as shown in
2.
3. The angle tabs are gone, indicating there's only one angle, as shown in 3.
If you keep the wrong angle, you can always undo (Ctrl+Z) or click on a previous state before the "stripping angles in VTS x" (where x is the VTS
number), entry in the History pane.

That's it! You're done on this portion of re-authoring. Now you're ready to move on to customize other parts of the DVD.

One of the new features of Pro v3 is that you are able to merge up to 4 DVDs. v2 allows you to merge only 2 DVDs. The biggest advantage in using
this feature is that you can merge episodic DVDs together. Of course, you can edit (hide / delete / add) the original DVD before or after merging,
but that is not the focus here. If you have dual layer burner, you may not have to shrink or reencode the merged DVDs.

So let's get started.

1. First, import at least 2 DVDs into the project. Here, 3 episodic DVDs have
been imported, each DVD is labeled as project 1, project 2, and project 3.
2. From Tools menu, select Merge DVDs... (shown in Figure 1)
3. A "Select projects for merger" dialog opens. Select the project in each drop down
list you want to merge, as shown in Figure 2. The order that you selected is
important. After merging, each button in the Title Menu, created by the
program, will be created for each Disk. So button 1 will be for Disk 1, button
2 for Disk 2, and so on.
4. Click on Merge button. A new project will be created with the merged disks
you selected in Step 3. Based on the input of Figure 2, project 4 is created.
5. Export project 4 (File -> Export DVDs...) and test on software player. If
everything's working fine, then burn away and enjoy.

Figure 1

Figure 2

Occasionally, some DVDs have parental level set. If the player has parental control off, then, of course, the DVD is able to play since it will pass the
check point. But if the player has parental control on, the dvd is allowed to play only if its level is lower or equal to the player's setting.
Whenever parental control is on, there will most likely a password be involved. How parental management is handled depends on the
behavior of each standalone and software player, but the standalone's behavior is more trustworthy in this matter.

This guide will show you how to remove parental management - a new feature of DRMPro v3. In v2, parental management, if any, is automatically
removed upon export. However, in v3, you have the option whether to remove it or not. More details are discussed below.

There are three ways where you can access the "Remove Parental Management" option:
1. Figure 1 pops up when right-clicking on the DVD Root tree. Removing PM at this level is most common and easiest. It will remove the
Parental Management (PM) table and reset all parental ID masks of each ifo in the DVD, as well as remove the SetParentalLevel (aka
SetTmpPML) command. Basically, it includes the operations of Figure 2 and Figure 3, plus removing the Parental Management table.
2. Figure 2 pops up when right-clicking on the Video Manager domain. This will reset all parental ID masks in the VMG Menus and
remove the SetParentalLevel command.
3. Figure 3 pops up when right-clicking on the Video Title Set domain. This will reset all parental ID masks in the VTS Menus and VTS
PGCs, and reflect that in the Title Play Map table in the VIDEO_TS.IFO.
This is by far one of the powerful features of DRM Pro in that you can choose which VTS you want parental restriction removed. Though it may not
be used often, but at least you know that this option is available. One applicable example is supposed the DVD is rated PG-13 and there's a certain
VTS that is rated R, you might want to keep that and remove the other VTSs. If you do this, it is recommended that you do not remove PM at the
VMG level as well.

If you don't know the meaning of PM table and parental ID masks, then don't worry about it. This is extra information for advanced users. All that
is needed to know is that this feature will remove parental restriction and let the DVD play even if the parental level is set in the player.

Note: This option will not be enabled, i.e. gray out, if 1) the DVD does not contain the PM table, or 2) it has been performed. This is so you know
that this has been done already. You can also see this operation in the History as well.

Figure 1

Figure 2

Figure 3

Figure 4

As a demonstration for Figure 2, Figure 4 shows the parental screen in VMG PGC 10. When playing, if you get to
this screen, that means the parental level has been set on the player, and your DVD does not pass the check
point. The check point is determined in the Pre Commands pane. The parental_value contains the value of the
player. If this value is greater than or equal to 3 (rated PG), then the dvd continues to play; otherwise, the
parental screen is displayed, prompting you to select "Yes" or "No".

If you select "No", then this message will appear "This movie will not play due to the parental setting of the player". To
trace, notice "No" is the button 2, and its button command, in Buttons pane, is "Link Cell 2", which is the cell 2
Burning Your Remade DVD

That's it, you're done on this portion of reauthoring. Now you're ready to move on to customize other parts of the DVD.

in the Programs pane that contains the message screen.

If you select "Yes", then the button 1 command says "LinkTailPGC", which will go to the Post Commands pane
and executes the commands. Line 1 says "SetParentalLevel(3)", which will prompt you for a password to set the
temporary parental level to 3. If you enter correctly, then line 3 executes, moving on to PGC 6. If you enter it
wrong, then line 2 executes, which is the same as if you select "No".

Now back to the topic. Once you remove PM as shown in Figure 2, SetParentalLevel command is removed in the
Post Commands pane. The result is shown in Figure 5.

Once you have finished editing your DVD, it's probably a good idea to use Export Test DVD, and view it with a software player before burning it.
There are plenty of software players available, including WinDVD, PowerDVD, and Nero Showtime. Most software players will play a DVD-video
from a hard drive folder. Please note however, software players are notorious for being non-compliant when it comes to DVD standards. It is
possible for a DVD-video to play with a software player but not in a stand-alone or set top player.

OK, you're satisfied with your remade DVD and are ready to burn it. The first thing that you need to decide is whether it will fit on your DVD
recordable. Hopefully, after removing unwanted material and audio tracks, it will be small enough to fit. If you are going to burn to a single-layer
disc (DVD-5) and the final size of your remade disc is greater than about 4486Mb, you will have to re-encode or transcode it to reduce its size
prior to burning it. There are several programs that will reduce the size of your disc. A few of them that are popular are DVD Rebuilder, DVD
Shrink, and Nero Recode.

Once you have your disc down to a size that will fit, you can use any DVD burning application to burn it. A few of the more popular commercial
burning programs are Nero Express or Burning ROM, or VSO's CopyToDVD. Or if you are looking for a free alternative, there's ImageTool Classic,
which makes an ISO image of your disk and then burns it using DVD Decrypter.

Here are some links to some of the software mentioned:
DVD Shrink
DVD Rebuilder

About About DvdReMake Pro 3
Available Functions in the File Menu:

Import DVD ...
Start a new project by importing a DVD. The dialog shown in Figure 1 will open, allowing you to
select a folder to import from. You should see files with extensions of IFO, VOB, and BUP, as
shown. There is no need to select any files, just hit the "Select" button. It is preferred to import
DVD files that were previously ripped to your hard drive. See Ripping a DVD for more information.
The keyboard shortcut for this function is Ctrl+I.

Export DVD ...
Export the current project as a DVD-video, to a hard drive folder. A dialog similar to the one
shown in Figure 1 will appear, allowing you to choose the folder to export to. The keyboard
shortcut for this function is Ctrl+E.

Update export
Updates the files that have changed in a previously exported project. The existing files that have
changed will be overwritten. The keyboard shortcut for this function is Ctrl+U.

Export test DVD ...
Exports the current project, but all scenes and motion menus will be cut to a duration specified in
Import/Export Options. A dialog similar to the one shown in Figure 1 (below) will appear,
allowing you to choose the folder to export to. This is useful in testing the navigation of the disc to
see if changes that you made were correct, without having to wait for a lengthy export. The
keyboard shortcut for this function is Ctrl+T.

Export modified files ...
Exports only files that have changed. This is different than the "Update export" function because
you don't have to do a full export first. The exported files will not make a complete DVD (unless
all of the files have changed). This function can be useful for advanced users who only make a few
changes and wish to avoid a lengthy export of unchanged files. After using this function, the files
that were exported will have to be copied to the source folder, replacing the original ones. As a
safety feature, DvdReMake will not modify your source files. The keyboard shortcut for this
function is Ctrl+M.

Export All ...
Exports all open projects. A dialog similar to the one shown in Figure 1 (below) will appear,
allowing you to choose a base folder for the exported projects. Each project will be exported to its
own subfolder of the base folder. The keyboard shortcut for this function is Ctrl+Shift+E.

Import/Export Options


Available Import/Export options
Shortest BOV duration
In addition to buttons on menus, DVD titles can also have buttons (BOV=Button Over Video). DvdReMake searches for these BOV's
when you import a DVD. The only way that DvdReMake can determine if there are BOV's within a title, is to search through the entire
title for them. This can take a considerable amount of time due to the size of a title. To reduce the amount of time this takes,
DvdReMake can scan through the titles at certain intervals instead of looking at the entire title. The "Shortest BOV duration" setting,
sets this interval. The shorter the interval, the longer the search will take. Possible values for this setting are: "0.5 seconds", "1.5
seconds", "3 seconds", "9 seconds", "15 seconds", or "no BOV". Setting this to a high value or "no BOV" will speed-up imports, but will
increase the chance that a button will be missed. The default value of 3 seconds is usually a reasonable setting since it is unlikely that a
button will be displayed for less than 3 seconds.

Bypass hidden parts before export (Auto bypass)
If this option is enabled, the disc's navigation will be adjusted to bypass any material that you've hidden. When the player reaches
hidden material, there can be a pause. The auto bypass feature significantly reduces this pause. If there is a large amount of hidden
material or the player is particularly slow, there can still be a slight pause.

Test DVD export - "Cut scenes at" & "Cut motion menus at"
These settings specify the duration of scenes and motion menus for the Export test DVD function.

Default directories
These setting allow you to specify the default directories (folders) used for Imports, Exports, Test exports, and Modified exports.

Format Options

Available Format options
Font
Allows you to change the font used for the user interface. Press the "Reset" button to reset to the default font.

Domain Content Preview Options
Certain discs that have a large number of PGC's or cells can degrade system performance when DvdReMake attempts to build its
display items. To alleviate this problem, these options allow you to disable some of the more time-intensive display routines.

Skip blank frames at start
This setting affects the way the Blocks Preview in the Domain Content View and the PGC View work. When this option is enabled,
each block will skip to a position where there is visible content. For more information see:
Domain Content Pane
Blocks Preview

Show "Goto PGC" in pop- up menu
If this option is disabled, the "Goto PGC" function will be unavailable in the Domain Content Pane. On DVD's with a large number of
PGC's, the "Goto PGC" function can degrade system performance since the program must dynamically create the pop-up menus that
display the PGC and cell numbers.

Show pgc/ cell
DVD Tree
DVD Tree Root
If this option is disabled, the PGC and cell numbers will not be shown on the preview blocks in the Domain Content Pane. On DVD's
with a large number of PGC's and cells, system performance can be degraded since the program must dynamically render the PGC
and cell numbers onto the preview blocks.

Undo/Redo - Old revisions amount
This option sets the number of operations that will be kept in the history list. This will be the number of times that you can undo. The
higher the number is, the more memory that the operation history uses and therefore can reduce system performance, especially on
computers with a modest amount of RAM. The possible choices are: "don't keep", 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100. The "don't keep" setting
disables history, undo, and redo.

Block Preview
Button link pointers
This option sets the position for the adjacent button link pointers shown for menu buttons. The possible choices are: "don't show",
"center", "inside", and "outside". For more information on the adjacent button link pointers see, Menu Preview/Editor.

Show info
This option turns on or off, the indicators for total size, total time, Mb elapsed, Mb remaining, current VOBU, current audio stream,
and current subtitle stream.

DVD Tree options
Show sizes
If this option is disabled, the sizes will not be shown in the "Size" column of the DVD Tree.

Highlight DVD navigation errors
Enables or disables DvdReMake's navigation error highlighting feature.

Target size
Sets the desired target size for remade discs. The total project size that is shown at the DVD Tree Root, will be orange if the current
project's size exceeds this setting. If the total project size does exceed the target, and you hover the mouse cursor over the total
size, a tooltip will appear, showing how much in excess of the target size the total is. Note that this setting only gives the program
the information that it needs to be able to show whether or not you have exceeded your desired size, and does not actually affect
the size of your exported disk.

The DVD Tree provides access to the disk's hierarchy. The tree is used
to select which item of the disk that you would like to work on.

Which items shown in the DVD Tree depends on whether the current
view mode is set for Easy or Advanced. In the Easy mode, only
the major domains are shown, which includes, the Video Manager
(VMG) and Video Title Sets (VTS) and their menus. In the Advanced
mode, details of all domains are shown. The Easy or Advanced view
mode can be selected on the Toolbar.

The root of the DVD tree shows the size of the current disk in
Megabytes (1MB = 1024x1024 = 1,048,576 bytes).

If you hover the mouse cursor over the root of the DVD, a tool-tip
Video Manager Domain
appears if the disk is larger than the target disk size as set in options.
Here is an example:

Right-clicking on the root brings up a menu containing the following
options:

Available Functions for the DVD Tree root:

Hide menu transitions
Replaces all menu blocks on the entire disc that don't contain buttons,
with a blank video.

Convert menus to still
Converts all motion menus on the entire disc to still menus. The frames
that are used as the stills are at the approximate midpoint of each cell.
This will reduce the size of each menu to a relatively small amount
(usually <3MB). The audio and subpicture streams will remain intact,
however they can be deleted/disabled as usual. The duration of each
menu will remain the same. If you set the cell's still time. the time will be
added at the end of the cell's playback.

Add VTS
Adds a new Video Title Set to the project. The new VTS will be empty and
have no PGCs or Menu Language Units.

Add copied VTS
Adds a previously copied Video Title Set(s) to the project. The copied VTS
(s) will contain all of the menus, PGC's, audio streams, sub-picture
streams, and the title map that were in the original VTS(s). If more than
one VTS was copied, the VTS's will be added in the order that they were
copied.

This will remove all parental management features on the disk. This
includes bypassing attempts in the VMG to assertain the player's parental
level and compare it to the level for the disc. It also clears the parental
mask tables in the discs IFO files. For more information, see
Remove Parental Management in the Basic Editing section.

Move left / Move right
Move the selected block to the left or right within its VTS. This will physically move the block
on the disk. The order of playback is not affected. If two blocks that are in different PGC's are
to be played seamlessly, you can use this function to move the blocks closer together,
thereby increasing the chance that the blocks will play sequentially without a pause.

Copy
Copy the selected block(s) to DvdReMake's internal clipboard. The block(s) can then be
pasted somewhere else in the same project or another open project.

Paste
Replace the selected block(s) with ones that were previously copied with the Copy function
above. The number of currently selected blocks must equal the number of blocks that were
copied or this function will be disabled. If the destination's audio and/or subtitle stream layout
is different than the source, a warning will be given. You will then have to edit the streams
table to match the source.

Figure 1
The Audio Tracks Pane shows the audio tracks for the selected domain, and allows you to manipulate them in various
ways.

The "Size" column shows the size in megabytes of each stream. When the DVD is first imported, the stream sizes are
estimated. When the size shown is an estimate, "(est)" is displayed after each stream's size. You can use "Find exact
stream sizes" to determine a more accurate size for each stream. When the streams are being sized, a "searchlight" icon
is shown next to each stream's entry to indicate that the sizing routine is running (as shown above).

The "Info" column shows the language and type of each audio track, as well as each stream ID. Each track's info is
shown in this format: language, coding mode, description. The language can be any one of the languages listed in the
Language Code Chart in the Appendix. The coding mode can be "Dolby AC3", "MPEG-1", "MPEG-2", "Linear PCM",
"DTS", or "SDDS". The description can be "unspecified", "normal", "for the visually impaired", "director's comments", or
"alternate director's comment".

Selecting a stream in the Audio Tracks Pane selects that stream as the one to use for audio preview. During a preview,
you can switch streams on-the-fly by selecting a different stream. There may be a slight delay in switching while the audio
stream buffer empties. See Video/Audio/Subtitle Preview.
Available Functions for the Audio Tracks Pane:

Disable track in all PGC
Disable the selected audio track in all PGC's. Disabling a track will recover the
space that it occupied.

Determining the exact stream sizes requires searching through all of the title's
VOB files, and therefore can take several minutes to complete. The
"searchlight" icon will appear next to each track while the streams are being
sized, as shown above. The fact that the search can be time-consuming is the
reason that the sizes are only estimated when the DVD is imported. It is not
always necessary to know the exact size. You can abort the stream sizing by
right-clicking again and selecting "Stop search."

When the user presses the "Next" or "Previous" player buttons, playback
moves to the next or previous program. The programs are also mapped as
chapter points in the VTS Title Map. Many people mistakenly believe that
the player's "Next" and "Previous" buttons skip by chapter, when in fact
they skip by program. In most cases, the program numbers and chapter
numbers are the same, but they don't have to be mapped on a one-for-one
basis.

Available Functions for the Programs Pane:

Hide block
Replaces the block for the selected cell(s) with a blank video. This blank video
uses only a trivial amount of space on the disk. The keyboard shortcut for this

keyboard shortcut for this function is Ctrl+Shift+>.

Restore block
Restore the block for the selected cell to its pre-edit state. The following things
will be restored:
1. Hidden block
3. Button commands, positions, and color schemes that were
changed.

Replace block ...
Replace the block for the selected cell with another block. The replacement
block can come from the same project, another open project, or an external
VOB. Selecting this function will open the Select Block Dialog, allowing you to
choose the block that you want to use as a replacement. The keyboard shortcut
for this function is Ctrl+R.

Substitute block ...
Select an existing block in the same VTS for the selected cell. Any number of
cells can point to the same block. If after substituting, the block that you
substituted for is no longer used by another cell, it will automatically removed
by DvdReMake. Selecting this function will open the Select Block Dialog,
allowing you to choose the block to substitute.

Insert block
Inserts a new cell, and a block for it, above the selected one and makes it the
selected cell. The new block will be a blank video that you can subsequently
use the "Replace block" or "Substitute block" functions to point the cell to the
right block.

Insert program
Makes the selected cell a program entry cell. The program number used will be
one more than the program above the selected cell. The program numbers for
all programs after the inserted one will be incremented by one. Chapters in the
VTS's Title Map that use the programs after the inserted one, will be adjusted
to the now incremented program numbers. If the inserted program is to be
mapped as a chapter, you will need to go to the VTS's Title Map and add the
chapter.

Delete block
Deletes the selected cell and its block. This function can be performed on
multiple selected cells.

Delete program
Deletes the program entry point from the selected cell. The cell and it's block
remain intact. The cell becomes part of the previous program and all program
numbers after the deleted one will be decremented by one. Any chapters in the
VTS's Title Map that use the deleted program will purposely be set to an invalid
program number so that DvdReMake's Problem Highlighting will flag the
chapter entry as invalid. All chapters after the deleted one will be adjusted to
the now decremented program numbers. This function can be performed on
multiple selected cells.

Delete program and block(s)
Deletes all of the cells that are part of the selected cell's program, and their
blocks. All program numbers after the deleted one will be decremented by one.
Any chapters in the VTS's Title Map that use the deleted program will purposely
be set to an invalid program number so that DvdReMake's Problem Highlighting
will flag the chapter entry as invalid. All chapters after the deleted one will be
adjusted to the now decremented program numbers.

the cell to the right block. The keyboard shortcut for this function is the P key.

Append copied PGC
Appends the blocks of a previously copied PGC to the end of the blocks of the
selected PGC. The copied PGC can come from the current project or another
open project.

Edit block attributes ...
Opens the "PGC Block Attributes Dialog" (Figure 1), which allows you to set the
following attributes for the selected cell(s):

Command #:
This sets the cell command number for the selected cell. The cell commands
are shown on the Cell Commands Pane. The corresponding cell command will
be executed after the cell is played.

Still time:
This sets the still time for the cell. Possible values are "no still", 1-254 seconds,
and infinity. This is usually used for setting the display duration of a single-
frame video such as a menu background. If it is used on a multi-frame video,
all of the frames will be played and then the last frame will be shown for the
still time duration.

Seamless playback:
This is a flag that tells the player to make the transition from the previous cell
seamless or without a pause. In most cases cells within a PGC will play
seamlessly without this flag being set, but when it is set, it tells the player that
the VOB's were prepared in such a way to guarantee that the cells will play
seamlessly. Merely setting this flag does not guarantee seamless playback,
especially if the blocks that the cells point to are physically located far apart. If
this flag is set, no cell command will be executed for the previous cell. For this
reason, if a cell command is set for a cell, DvdReMake will automatically clear
the seamless flag for the next cell.

Restricted:
When playback reaches a cell with the "Restricted" flag set, any "trick play" will
be cancelled and play will revert to standard (1x forward) play. "Trick play" is
fast or slow forward play, or any reverse play.

The keyboard shortcut for this function is the Spacebar. Double-clicking on a
cell is also a shortcut for "Edit block attributes."

Select All
Selects all cells.

Figure 1
The Pre, Post, and Cell command Panes list the VM Commands for the
selected PGC, and provides a means to edit them.

Pre commands are executed when the PGC is started, before any cells are
shown.

If a cell has a cell command associated with it, the command will be
executed after the cell has been played.

Post commands are executed after the end of the PGC is reached during
playback or after LinkTailPGC command is executed. Post commands will
not be executed when the end of the PGC is reached if the PGC's Next PGC
attribute is set to another PGC, in which case playback will transfer to that
PGC.

If you select a command that has a goto statement, the goto destination's
line number is highlighted in green, as shown in the example on the right.
In this example, line 4 is selected, and since it has a "goto line 19," line
19's line number is highlighted in green.

Multiple commands may be selected by holding down the Ctrl key while

Select All
Selects all commands.

Right-clicking on an entry in one of the command
panes brings up this menu:

The Buttons pane lists all of the buttons in the selected cell, and provides a
means to edit them.

Shown for each button is: its button number, command, color scheme, and
whether or not it is an auto-action button. An auto-action button will
execute its command as soon as the user selects it, without requiring the
"Enter" key to be pressed.

Each screen can have separate buttons for anamorphic widescreen, auto
pan/scan, or auto letterbox. A separate set of buttons for each display
mode is required so that the highlights are drawn in the correct area of the
modified picture. There are selectable tabs at the bottom of the Buttons
Pane to allow selection of the separate button sets.

Each button includes four directional links that determine what button is
selected next when a corresponding arrow key is pressed. The order of the
buttons usually corresponds to their physical arrangement, but it doesn't
have to.

On most DVD's, the graphics or pictures that make up the visual part of the
button, are actually part of the still or motion video that makes up the
menu background. As the user moves through the buttons using the
player's arrow keys, sub-pictures are used to highlight the buttons in such
a way that the current selection is known. When you hide or delete a
button in DvdReMake, you are only preventing the button from being
highlighted, but the picture that makes up the button will still be there. The
only way to actually remove the button graphics is to edit and re-author
the menu background.

Available Functions for the Buttons Pane:

Hide button
Hides the selected button from the user. The adjacent button links will be
adjusted so it is still possible to navigate the menu. When you want to remove
a button from a menu to prevent the user from choosing material that you
have removed or hidden, this is usually the best method. This is because when
you hide a button the button numbering stays the same. So, any attempts to
highlight a particular button from code will still highlight the correct button.

Delete button
Delete the selected button. All button numbers that are higher than the one
deleted will be decremented by one. The adjacent button links will be adjusted
so it is still possible to navigate the menu.

Edit button ...
Opens the Button Edit Dialog, allowing you to edit the selected button. The
following things can be edited:
The button's command.
The highlight positions for each display mode.
The four directional links that determine what button to select next when the
user presses one of the arrow keys.
Which color scheme is used.
The keyboard shortcut for this function is the Spacebar. Another shortcut for
this function is to double-click on the button's entry in the list.

Move Up / Move Down
Makes the selected button one number lower or higher. The directional links for
the buttons will be adjusted so that all buttons still go to the same buttons as
they did before the move. This can be used to make a button the default (#1)
button. The keyboard shortcut for Move Up is Ctrl+U. The keyboard shortcut
for Move Down is Ctrl+D.

Copy button command
Copies the command of the selected button for subsequent pasting using the
"Paste button command" function. The commands can be pasted to another
button as well as anywhere else that they would be appropriate for the
destination, including as a Pre, Post, or Cell command. Note that the command
is not copied to the Windows clipboard. DvdReMake has its own internal
clipboard. The keyboard shortcut for this function is Ctrl+C.

Paste button command
Pastes a command to the selected button that was previously copied using the
"Copy button command." The command could have also been copied from a
Post, Pre, or Cell command pane, provided that the command is appropriate for
a button. The keyboard shortcut for this function is Ctrl+V.

Right-clicking on one of the entries brings up this
menu:

Button Edit Dialog
Audio Tracks Pane (PGC View)
Open destination
Goes to the destination of the Jump or Link instruction of the selected button's
command. This can be used to step through the navigation of the disk. The
"Undo Open Destination" and "Redo Open Destination functions", that are on
the Toolbar, can be used to step backward and forward through the navigation
that has been traced. The steps that have been trace will also be listed on the
History Pane. The keyboard shortcut for this function is Ctrl+Space.

Opens a duplicate project with focus being on the destination of the selected
command's Jump or Link instruction. The keyboard shortcut for this function is
Ctrl+Shift+Space

The Button Edit Dialog allows you to edit various attributes of Buttons Over
Video (BOV). BOV's are usually used in menus but they can occur in titles also.

The "Position" section of the dialog allows you to change the button's highlight
position by changing the values in the four coordinate boxes. The coordinate
system used numbers the screen pixels from an origin at the upper-left side of
the screen (0,0). The coordinate boxes on the left and the right specify the
distance in pixels from the left-side of the screen to the left and right side of
the button. The coordinate boxes on the top and bottom specify the distance
from the top of the screen to the top and bottom of the button. Separate
button positions may be entered for anamorphic widescreen, auto pan/scan,
and auto letterbox by selecting one of the tabs at the top of the dialog.

The "Adjacent buttons" section of the dialog allows you to change the
directional links corresponding to the arrow keys on the player's remote. The
value shown in the middle input box is the current button number that is being
edited. The values in the other four boxes indicate what, from the button
currently being edited, should be the next button to be highlighted, when the
user presses one of the arrow keys on the player's remote control.

The "Command" section of the dialog shows the current command for the
button being edited. If the "auto" checkbox is checked the button is an auto-
action button that will be activated automatically, as soon as it is selected by
the user, before the "Enter" key is pressed on the remote control. To edit the
command for a button, click the button that is to the right of the command
box. This will open the Command Edit Dialog, allowing you to edit the
command.

The "Color scheme" box allows you to select one of the three color schemes
used for button highlighting. The color schemes can be edited by right-clicking
on the menu's background in the Menu Preview/Editor, and selecting "Edit
Color Schemes". The colors used by the color schemes can be changed on the
CLUT Pane.

The Audio Tracks Pane shows the audio streams for the currently selected
PGC, and provides a means to disable them or change their stream
numbers within their track.

The "Info" column shows the language and type of each audio track. Each
track's info is shown in this format: language, coding mode,
description. The language can be any one of the languages listed in the
Language Code Chart in the Appendix. The coding mode can be "Dolby
AC3", "MPEG-1", "MPEG-2", "Linear PCM", "DTS", or "SDDS". The
description can be "unspecified", "normal", "for the visually impaired",
"director's comments", or "alternate director's comment". This info can be
edited on the Audio Tracks Pane in the Domain Content View.

Selecting a stream in the Audio Tracks Pane selects that stream as the one
to use for audio preview. During a preview, you can switch streams on-the-
fly by selecting a different stream. There may be a slight delay in switching
while the audio stream buffer empties. See Video/Audio/Subtitle Preview.

Figure 1
The Extras Pane shows various attributes for the selected PGC, and
provides a means for changing them.

The Next PGC and Prev PGC attributes provides a means to make a
virtual connection between two PGC's in the same VTS. A value of zero
means disabled. The current PGC's Next PGC link will be followed when any
of the following occurs:
Playback reaches the end of the current PGC.
The user presses the "Next Chapter" button while the current PGC's last
program is playing.
A LinkNextProgram, button or cell command is executed from the current PGC's
last program.
A LinkNextCell, button or cell command is executed from the current PGC's last

CLUT Pane
cell.
Neither the current PGC's post commands, or the Next PGC's pre
commands will be executed when the the Next PGC link is followed. The
current PGC's Prev PGC link will be followed when any of the following
occurs:
The user presses the "Previous Chapter" button while the current PGC's first
program is playing.
A LinkPrevProgram, button or cell command is executed from the current PGC's
first program.
A LinkPrevCell, button or cell command is executed from the current PGC's first
cell.

The Go Up PGC attribute specifies the PGC to go to when the used presses
the "Return" or "GoUp" remote control button. The LinkGoUpPGC command
also will cause playback to follow the Go Up PGC link.

The PGC still time can be set to "no still", 1-254 seconds, or infinity. The
PGC still is performed after the last cell of the PGC is played and its cell
command, if any, is executed, but before the PGC's post commands are
executed. The last VOBU of the PGC will be shown for the duration of the
still time specified.

The PG playback mode specifies which of three modes of playback is to
be used for the PGC. The three possible values are sequential, random and
shuffle. Most PGC's use the sequential mode which plays the PGC's cells in
order, one-after-another. The random and shuffle modes are very similar in
their operation. In both of these modes, you specify the number of cells
that you want to play in random order. The only difference between the
random and shuffle modes is that the random mode may repeat a cell
before the specified number of cells has been played, whereas the shuffle
mode keeps track of the cells that have been played and will not repeat
them until all of the cells have been played. You can specify a quantity of
cells that is more than the number of cells in the PGC, in which case, cells
will be played more than once.

CLUT is an acronym for Color Lookup Table. The CLUT Pane shows the color
table for the selected PGC that is used for button highlighting, and provides
a means for changing the colors that are used.

Each button is configured to use one of three color schemes. Each of these
three color schemes uses four of the 16 colors listed in the CLUT. The color
scheme that is used by a button can be changed on the Button Edit Dialog.
The color schemes themselves can be edited when viewing a menu in the
Menu Preview/Editor.

Available Functions for the CLUT Pane:

Point to something with the mouse cursor on the screenshot below to see a description of it.

The Video/Audio/Subtitle Preview allows you to view blocks that are selected in the various views of the program and provides
various functions to edit the video sequence.

The Video/Audio/Subtitle Preview also serves as a visual menu editor, that shows button positions and characteristics, and allows
you to edit the buttons and other menu attributes. See Menu Preview/Editor.

If the selected block is a multi-angle, or otherwise interleaved, block, the different angles or Interleave Units (ILUV) can be
selected using the tabs along the left side of the preview window. If there are more tabs than will fit within the preview, you can
use the up and down arrow buttons located above the tabs to scroll through the different tabs.

The scrollbar at the lower-right of the preview window, allows you to move through the video. Clicking on the left or right arrows,
or in between them and the slider, moves the playback position one VOBU at a time. You can also drag the slider to quickly move
to a specific location.

In the upper-left corner of the preview window, there are indicators for total size , and total time . In the upper-
right corner, there are indicators for Mb elapsed/Mb remaining , current VOBU , currently selected audio
stream , and currently selected subtitle stream . These indicators can be turned on or off in
Format Options. You can also temporarily hide the indicators by pressing and holding the F6 key. The indicators will return when
the F6 key is released.

The preview also allows you to play the block with audio and subtitles. Playback is controlled with the control buttons at the
bottom of the preview. The playback controls function as follows:

Adds a button to the block currently being previewed. Note that this
button only creates the navigational and color scheme info and does not
create the required subpicture for the button.

Edit color schemes ...
Opens the Color Scheme Dialog allowing you to change the color
schemes used for button highlighting, for the block currently being
previewed. Buttons are usually only used in menu PGC's but can also be
in titles. For more information on this function see:
Menu Preview/Editor.

Set Prohibited operations ...
Sets the Prohibited User Operations (PUOP) for the block currently
being previewed. For more information see:

When you are working on a menu block, the preview works the same, but there is added functionality to allow you to see the
menu buttons, and edit various aspects of them.

While buttons are usually only used in menus, titles can also have them. Everything mentioned here applies to BOV's in titles also.

The preview window shows the button positions with red rectangles. The buttons can be selected by clicking on them. The selected
button is highlighted with a green double-lined rectangle.

Pressing and holding the F6 key will temporarily hide the button rectangles, as well as the size, position and track indicators. This
allows you to see the menu background video that may have been covered by the overlays. The rectangles and indicators will
return when the F6 key is released.

Four directional arrows are shown to indicate which buttons correspond to the adjacent button links for the selected button. The
adjacent button links specify which button will be highlighted next when the user presses one of the arrow keys on the player's
remote control. For more information on this see: Button Edit Dialog.

A motion menu can have more than one set of buttons. Each set is displayed at a different temporal location within the menu
block. There is a tab at the bottom of the preview window for each set of buttons. You can quickly jump to a particular set of
buttons by clicking on its tab.

If you hover the mouse cursor over a button a tooltip like this: will appear that shows the button's command.

You can edit a buttons command, position, adjacent buttons, and which color scheme it uses. To edit a button, right-click and
select "Edit button" or double-click on the button.

To change the color scheme for the current menu, right-click somewhere on the menu's background (anywhere other than a
button) and select "Edit color schemes." this will open the Color Scheme Dialog.

Each button also listed on the Buttons Pane, and can be edited there also.

Available Functions for a menu button:

Hide button
Hides the selected button from the user. The button remains but button
navigation is adjusted in such a way that the button will be skipped
over. When you want to remove a button from a menu to prevent the
user from choosing material that you have removed or hidden, this is
usually the best method. This is because when you hide a button the
button numbering stays the same. So, any attempts to highlight a
particular button from code will still highlight the correct button.

Delete button
Delete the selected button. All button numbers that are higher than the
one deleted will be decremented by one.

Edit button...
Opens the Button Edit Dialog, allowing you to edit the selected button.
The following things can be edited:
The button's command.
The highlight positions for each display mode.
The four directional links the determine what button to select next when
the user presses one of the arrow keys.
Which color scheme is used.
The keyboard shortcut for this function is the Spacebar. Another
shortcut for this function is to double-click on the button's entry in the
list.

Copy button command
Copies the command of the selected button for subsequent pasting
using the "Paste button command" function. The commands can be
pasted to another button as well as anywhere else that they would be
appropriate for the destination, including as a Pre, Post, or Cell
command. Note that the command is not copied to the Windows
clipboard. DvdReMake has its own internal clipboard.

Paste button command
Pastes a command to the selected button that was previously copied
using the "Copy button command." The command could have also been
copied from a Post, Pre, or Cell command pane, provided that the
command is appropriate for a button.

Open destination
Goes to the destination of the Jump or Link instruction of the selected
button's command. This can be used to step through the navigation of
the disk. The "Undo Open Destination" and "Redo Open Destination
functions", that are on the Toolbar, can be used to step backward and

Color Scheme Dialog
forward through the navigation that has been traced. The steps that
have been trace will also be listed on the History Pane. The keyboard
shortcut for this function is Ctrl+Space.

Opens a duplicate project with focus being on the destination of the
selected command's Jump or Link instruction. The keyboard shortcut for
this function is Ctrl+Shift+Space

Buttons Pane

There are three layers that make up a DVD menu with buttons. The
first layer is the background still or motion video. The second layer is
the sub-picture or mask layer, that contains the graphics that make up
the buttons. The third layer is the highlight layer, that defines the
rectangular coordinates for the portion of the subpicture to show, and
configures the colors used to highlight the button that the user has
selected.

Each button has three different button states. The first state is the
Display or Normal state, which is the state that all of the buttons are
in, except for the highlighted one that was chosen by the user. The
second state is the Selection state, which occurs when the user selects
the button with the arrow or number keys on the player's remote
control. The third state is the Action state, which occurs when the user
presses the "Enter" key (aka the "Select" key) for the selected
button.

The sub-picture mask is comprised of up to four colors. The four colors
are usually black, white, red, and blue. Each one of the colors
represent the background, the pattern, emphasis 1, or emphasis 2.
Typically the pattern is for the foreground, the background is for the
background, emphasis 1 is the inner edge and emphasis 2 is the outer
edge. Many DVD authoring programs don't follow this though, and will
use emphasis 1 and emphasis 2 as foreground colors.

For each of the button states, a color and a transparency level can be
mapped to each of the colors in the sub-picture mask. The mappings
for the Normal state are actually in the sub-picture stream itself, and
cannot be changed on the Color Scheme Dialog. Actually, on most
menus, the transparency levels for the Normal state are usually set to
0, thereby making them completely transparent. This is because the
graphics for the buttons are usually on the background video, where
millions of colors can be used instead of the four that the sub-picture
layer is limited to. These menus use sub-pictures only for highlighting
the selected button.

Each cell of a menu PGC has three color schemes that are used to
configure which of the colors in the PGC's CLUT are used to highlight
the buttons in the Selected and Action states. Each button is assigned
to one of the color schemes. See the Button Edit Dialog for more
information on how to change which color scheme is used by a
particular button.

For each color scheme, color and a transparency levels are mapped to
the four subpicture colors, for both the Selection and the Action
states.

The color index corresponds to one of the colors in the Color Lookup
Table (CLUT) for the PGC. You can view the CLUT, and change the
colors for each index on the CLUT Pane.

The transparency level is a number between 0 and 15. 0 is completely
transparent or invisible. 15 is completely opaque.

Miscellaneous Dialogs
Command Edit Dialog
The "Export" button allows you to save a color scheme to a file, which

System Set instructions are for setting various
System Parameter Registers (SPRM). In a direct
Set, the SPRM is set to a value that you select from
a list. In an indirect Set, the SPRM is set to the
value of a General Program Register (GPRM) that
you specify. A condition or a Link sub-command
may be used, but not both. If a condition is used, it
is evaluated first. If the condition evaluates as true,
the command is executed. If a link is used, it is
executed after the Set command.

Set Instructions
Set instructions assign a value to one of the 16
General Parameter Registers (GPRM). It can be a
simple assignment, using the "=" operator to assign
a value that you specify, or the value of another
GPRM. Using other operators, the assignment can
also be the result of a mathematical or bitwise
calculation between the GPRM that you are setting,
and another GPRM or value that you specify. The
"=" and bitwise operators can also use a SPRM as
a source value. A condition or a Link sub-command
may be used, but not both. The three
Set/Compare/Link categories listed below can use
both a condition and a link, but there are
restrictions and you are limited to a smaller set of
link sub-commands. If a condition is used, it is
evaluated first. If the condition evaluates as true,
the command is executed. If a link is used, it is
executed after the Set command.

Set, Compare->Link Sub-Instruction
This command category unconditionally executes a
Set command, then evaluates a condition. If the
condition is true, a Link command is executed.
Unlike the standard Set command described
above, you can use both a condition and a Link
command with this command type. There is a
tradeoff though. While you can have both a
condition and a link, the register being set and the
compare register must be the same, and you are
limited to a smaller subset of Link commands. This
command can be used without a condition or a link,
but a standard Set command would be more suited
for this because it doesn't have the limitations.

If the condition is true a Set command followed by

the link are subject to the condition. Unlike the
standard Set command described above, you can
use both a condition and a Link command with this
command type. There is a tradeoff though. While
you can have both a condition and a link, either the
right side of the condition or the Set command must
be a value and not a GPRM or SPRM, and you are

Select Angle Dialog
Select Block Dialog

LinkPrevProgram
When you select "Strip angles..." on a VTS, the "Select
Angle" dialog appears.

You can choose an angle using the tabs on the left. The
block preview across the top shows all multi-angle blocks
in the selected VTS. You can select one of these blocks
and use the playback controls to view the block.

When you have found the angle that you would like to
keep, click the "Keep this" button.

For more information on stripping angles, see
Strip unwanted angles in the Basic Editing section of the
Quick Start Guide.

The Select Block Dialog allows you to select a block as a
replacement block, from anywhere, in any open project.
You can also select a block from an external source, using
the "Load..." button.
Select Block Dialog (for Substitute block)
Select Pool Dialog

Each VTS, from each open project, has a pool entry in the
"Data Pools" list, for its menus and its movie.

Selecting a pool loads its blocks into the scrollable block
selection pane. After selecting the desired block, it will be
loaded into the preview window where you can view the
block to make sure it is the correct one.

If the source of your replacement block is not in an open
project, you can load an external source by clicking the
"Load..." button. After clicking "Load...", the dialog shown
on the right is shown. You can select any single VOB file
or by changing "Files of type" to "DVD titleset (*.ifo)" you
can load an entire VTS by selecting its IFO file.

When you are satisfied with the selected block, click the
"OK" button.

The Select Block Dialog for substitution allows you to select an existing block from any PGC in the same VTS for substitution. The
selected cell will then point to the block that you select. Any number of cells can point to the same block.

The scrollable block selection pane across the top shows all of the blocks in the current VTS. After selecting the desired block, it
will be loaded into the preview window where you can view the block to make sure it is the correct one.

When you are satisfied with the selected block, click the "OK" button.

The "Replace blocks using" option, located in the lower-
left corner of the dialog, allows you to select how the
replacement blocks are assigned to the destination blocks.
The first option is "blocks order" which replaces blocks in
the order of the replacement pool, on a "while supplies
last" basis. The second option is "vob/cell id" which
matches the cells in the replacement pool to the same
PGC and cell number in the VTS being replaced.

If the source of your replacement blocks is not in an open

User operations are low-level user control functions that are translated by the player to one of the defined user operations.

Some operations are optional and may not be supported by all players, whereas some are mandatory by the DVD specifications
History Pane
and must be supported by all players.

User operations can be prohibited at the VTS, PGC or VOBU level.

Using the "Set prohibited operations" function opens this dialog. This function is available for PGC's, VTS Menu PGC's,
VMG Menu PGC's, and individual blocks in the Video/Audio/Subtitle Preview.

You can also use the "Enable all operations" function to clear all prohibited user operations at various locations as described
below:

Every operation performed in DvdReMake Pro is entered into the history list
located on the History Pane.

By clicking on an entry in the history list, you can undo all of the operations
that were performed after it. The operations that were undone will be
shown in gray (Figure 2). If you click on one of these gray entries, the
undone operations up to the selected operation will be redone. The "Undo"
and "Redo" buttons on the Toolbar perform a similar function, but only one
step at a time.

The History Pane along with the "Open destination" function, can be useful
in tracing navigation. Every time you use "Open destination," two entries
are added to the History list. The first is "pre-open location" and the second
is "open [location]" where [location] is the destination that was opened (see
Figure 3). You can click on one of these entries to take you back to that
location. Clicking on "pre-open location" will take you to the location prior to
the opened location that follows it. The Undo/Redo "Open Destination"
toolbar buttons will also step, one at a time, forward or backward through
the destinations that were opened. The "Open destination" function can be
performed from any of the following places in DvdReMake Pro:
Jump/Call/Link/goto commands on the Pre/Post/Cell Command Panes
A button command on the Buttons Pane
A button command in the Menu Preview/Editor
A title in the VMG Title Map
A title or chapter in the VTS Title Map
Next, Prev, or Go Up PGC on the Extras Pane

The number of operations that will be kept in the history list is configured in
Format Options.

In the default screen layout, the History Pane is auto-hidden on the right-

side of the screen. The History pane can be removed from view in the
View menu.

Figure 3

Whenever you import or export a DVD, or load or save a project, entries are
made in the log to track the operations progress and record and errors that
are encountered.

When you start one of the aforementioned operations, the operation's name
is entered into the log in bold. Subsequent entries will show the operations
progress, such as when specific parts of a DVD that is read. Errors will be
shown in red.

In the default screen layout, the Log Pane is auto-hidden on the right-side
of the screen. The Log pane can be removed from view in the View menu.

The log is also written to a file named DvdReMake.log in the program's
installation folder.

Available Functions for the Log Pane:

Copy Log to Clipboard
Copies the log to the Windows clipboard. If you are having problems, this
makes it easy to post your log to the Official DimadSoft User Forums.

Clear Log
Clears the log (Duh).

Right-clicking anywhere on the Log Pane brings up this

Advanced Editing
Making merged disks play consecutively
The Advanced Editing section contains guides for some relatively complex tasks. As you will see, even complex tasks are easy with
DvdReMake Pro!

Currently the Advanced Editing section contains the following guides:

Making merged disks play consecutively

Sorry, that's all there is so far...More to come...

This guide shows you how to implement a "Play All" feature to a DVD created using DvdReMake's Merge DVDs function.

Now, let's go to the VMG Title menu. This is where it decides which disks to play. So after you play Disk 1, it will go here, not displaying
the Title menu, of course, and jumps to Disk 2. Remember, if Disk 2, like every other Disks, starts with its main menu or some logo or
preview, then that is normal. Don't assume that this procedure let you start playing the movie right away on Disk 2, 3, and 4. However,
it can be done, but it's rather complicated depending on the complexity of the DVD. There's no certain way to do it so this method is
generally for advanced users who want to further customize their DVDs.

ok, Let's look at Figure 2 for reference during this procedure.
1. Go to the Cell Commands pane. Add LinkTailPGC command. For more details, right-click anywhere in that pane, and select
Add Command. A NOP command is created. Double-click on it to open the Command Edit dialog. Select Link Instructions from
drop-down list. Check the second box, and select LinkTailPGC from drop-down list, and click OK.
2. Go to the Programs pane. Right-click anywhere in that pane, and select Add block. A new blank cell is created, which is cell 2.
3. Double-click or hit <Space> bar on the new cell to open the PGC Block Attributes dialog. Select Command #1 and click OK.
4. Go to the Pre Commands pane. Add the following 3 commands at the end.
Break (Special Instructions). Will be line 18.
highlighted_button = 2048 (button 2), Link Cell 2 (System Set Instructions). At highlighted_button entry, enter the value as 2048. Will be
line 19.
highlighted_button = 3072 (button 3), Link Cell 2 (System Set Instructions). Will be line 20.
5. From the top of Pre Commands pane (refer to Figure 3 for now), select Line 1 and hit Insert key. Double-click on NOP, and
enter this command:
if (R[0] == 2) goto line 20 (Special Instructions). Is line 1.
6. Select Line 2, and insert this command:
if (R[0] == 3) goto line 22 (Special Instructions). Is line 2.
First, let's get started on Disk 1. In Figure 1, Disk 1 is VTS 1,
Disk 2 is VTS 2, and Disk 3 is VTS 3. Yes, there's only one
VTS per disk. You may have more VTSs per disk. This is used
for illustration and simplicity.
1. Go to the Post Commands pane of the movie
PGC, as shown in Figure 1.
2. Insert the commands in the red rectangle box for
Lines 1 and 2. If you don't know how to insert,
here's how: Select Line 1, and press the Insert
key. A NOP command is created. Double-click on
it to open the Command Edit dialog. Select Set
Instructions from drop-down list. Check the Set
button. Enter "R[0] = 2" and click OK.
Repeat this procedure for Line 2. "Call VMG title
menu" command is in Jump/Call Instructions
category from drop-down list.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for Disk 2 (if only there's
a Disk 3 involved), except on Line 1, increment
R[0] value by 1. So, you should have R[0] = 3.
4. Repeat Step 3 for Disk 3 (R[0] = 4) if only there's
a Disk 4 involved.
The whole purpose of assigning value to R[0] is to tell the
DVD to go to the next disk automatically after the current
disk finishes playing.

The result should be the same as in Figure 2. If it's not the same, then fix it to make it look like that.

That's it, you're done. Just export and test. If you're satisfied, then shrink or reencode, if need to, then burn.

Note: By now, you should have noticed how the panes are ordered. It is customized this way specifically for this illustration so you can
see everything without having to make several screenshots. History and Log panes are removed. Other panes are hidden as shown on
right side of program. So in the future, if you are asking for help in the support forum, a customized screenshot, showing relevant
information of the problem, would greatly help us. Thanks for making use of this program, and we look forward to assist you further.
