Re: DVD Timed photo gallery

That pathfinding seemed rather tortuous, though the eventual solution was reasonably straightforward. Nonetheless it would have been much more convenient for Handbrake to have been able to handle.

Re: DVD Timed photo gallery

Ok. Results: 0. Just to recap, this set of titles has been ripped from DVD to internal storage VIDEO_TS folder, and all efforts proceed from this origin. Effort 1: MakeMKV did not consider the galleries to be titles, at least not with my present settings. So no .mkv files were generated for the gall...

Thanks for the suggestion. I will give it a go. I have used MakeMKV for some while now, but only to rip Blu-Rays.

Re: Subtitle was set to Default but Burned-In instead

Thank you for the info. I enjoy the learning, though some of it consumes valuable time. :o

:?: Is there a possibility of Handbrake showing a warning when adding to the queue or when processing, in order to educate folks like myself that one setting or another will be overridden?

Grazi.

Re: Resume a title conversion - Even feasible?

Thank you for that. Belaboring the issue, I understand that, within an .mp4 container, multiple objects can be held. Is there any sequence indicator, and possibly a flag, that would signal that playback is to continue from one to another in the sequence, with the same effect as sequenced chapters?
