Screenshots of the menus I created are linked to below which look fantastic on my 58 inch plasma display.Īs you can see from the screenshots I also took the time to set a video frame for each title button. I then dragged the mkv files into a new DVDStyler project and created a simple top menu and 4 submenu pages, each containing 6 titles per page, i.e. The resulting 24 mkv files weighed in at 38.6gb. The first thing I did was to create a mkv file for each episode from the vob files, 2 vob files per episode as each episode was over 1gb in size. For a test run I decided to go with X-Files: Season One which contains 24 episodes and weights in at 39.4gb. As DVDStyler 2.3.5 offers an 'unlimited' disc capacity option I assumed it would be possible to do this. I recently discovered DVDStyler and thought it would be cool to use the program to create DVD menus for a number of over-sized DVD's I had created which I play via WMC7 from hard drives. I'm wondering this as well as I've just encountered the same exact issue. If I create the same MPG files with Gui for DVD author or DVD Flick no problem appears. Is there a maximum size for the generated files in AUDIO / VIDEO folder.

The films that are in the order advance are played without any problem.ĭoes any one know how I can predict that a successfully generated DVD has no problems to be played. The really bad thing is that DVDstyler informs the user that the DVD has been created successfully but once you play it the film breaks in the middle of the film. So I also guess that there is a maximum possible length value but i never read about such a limit. Changing the option from Copy to PAL … does not help. If I delete one or two files that the total length is around 200 Min the DVD is generated perfectly. DVDshrink does even not let me load the video project. If the length of the DVD (in the bottom right corner) is around 245 Min the DVD is successfully created (I only let create the AUDIO VIDEO folder) but if i play it with VLC the last or the two last videos fail after a certain duration. I tried to do this with DVDStyler and realised the following. I created very large DVDs (up to 12 GB) and then I used DVD shrink to shrink them down. I usually have been using GUI for DVD author.
