DVDMaestro Problem. HELP ! PLEASE!

[hjvp]

Hello everybody, I need help.
I read that one of the best authoring programs is DVDMaestro.
So i tried to use it, but... I can not import a movie file (*.m2v)!
When I try to import the movie asset *.m2v I get the message -> "No Sequence End Code Was Found".
And When I try to put this asset in the movie section I get the Error Message -> "The Video Asset Length is Greater than the Maximum Allowed".
So... I can do nothing. Can somebody help me ? Please!!!!
The same *.m2v file is accepted by Scenarist and by Impression DVD Pro. I use SmartRipper to create the m2v file.
I don't use those programs because in each one I get a different error !
In Scenarist I can not import the Subtitles made with Subrip.
In Impression DVD, the ripped subtitles (when ripped look fine) when inserted on the movie (vob file) appear with strange colors.
Please, if somebody knows how to solve one of this problems I would be so thankful !

Try asking around in http://www.fukrulez.com/modules.php?name=Forum There are a bunch of people who use DVDMaestro.

Good Luck.

apart from the end sequence not found that sounds like u have 'a missing sequence header before every gop', the length stuff is a known issue of the SMB release of Maestro.

U need to get a good one for your educational purposes.
