Re: Working playlists for "Woodfall – A Revolution in British Cinema"

I noticed that a lot: Apparently the title count may vary from one attempt to the next (but the playlist # is the same)

Re: Working playlists for "Woodfall – A Revolution in British Cinema"

Sorry to reply so late, I should visit the forum more often. I determined the playlists manually by looking at the segments' starts and endings. This will tell you the one valid sequence to look for. Then I admit I waded through the segment maps on offer (you get into the habit quickly and get used ...

Working playlists for "Woodfall – A Revolution in British Cinema"

The bfi box set "Woodfall – A Revolution in British Cinema" contains 8 films on 9 discs (with two cuts of TOM JONES). Two of the discs are straightforward (with a single playlist for the main feature), the others yield enormous numbers of fake titles. Unlike other users, I have never seen ...

Re: Ulzana's Raid [DE] - "No disc"

The disk can be accessed in Finder and shows up the usual structure (AACS, BDMV, CERTIFICATE ƒ). The only unusual thing is that the BD reader makes a lot of noise before mounting.
And yes, this disk is a solitary case so far, I tried other BDs after every failed attempt at ULZANA'S RAID.

Re: Direct blu-ray playback with VLC

Hi Art-of-Escape, you probably found this out in the meantime, but just in case someone else got the same problem: The menu entry you're looking for is 'Playback > Title' which gives you access to the various streams on the Blu-ray. It also lists each track's length, giving you a rough guess at what...

Re: Before I buy the program, some questions please

1 - The blu-ray disc I ripped is 44Gb in size, but the ripped files total 62Gb. Should they not be smaller? One possible explanation: This is typical of BDs with seamless branching offering more than one version of the main feature (as mentioned in point 3 of setarip_old's post) An example is the P...
