Chapters are scrambled

Post by crowwoman »

Need help, I have used Handbrake on all my dvd to IPod with no problems, however I just ran into a problem with "UP" I chose the longest chapter however when I played it on my IPOD the chapters were scrambled. Any suggestions?

I suggest you do a bit of reading of the dozens of posts about this very subject already in the forums. It's a copy protection issue.

If you fire up Handbrake and it sees 99 titles, that appears to be a sure sign you've run into this relatively recent roadblock.

I'm embarrassed to admit I asked about it in the *nix forum without doing my homework.

If you run into the "99 Titles" problem (and you a working on a Mac), here is quick way to determine which title is the one you want to use. Insert the origonal DVD into the Mac and start up the normal Mac DVD player. Then navigate through the menus to play the movie. Once the movie actually starts, maybe a minute or so into the actual movie, using the mouse activate the menu bar by moving the mouse to the top of the screen. Select the "Go" menu and hover over the "Title" submenu. This will show the list of title numbers and one will be checked. This is the one that you want to rip with Handbrake. This not only works for title feature but for the "extras" as well.
