titlewriter2 still asks for a dummy file!

It does for me as well.

The guide on dvdrhelp is very complex and this program does it in seconds.

Now thats odd the version listed on prior page is the second version 40Kb long and doesn't ask for it. I did forget to clean up the help blurb on the window. Are you sure you are not running the first ver. (32K)

Well, if it's for DVD Text, a lot of movies have more than 11 caracters no ? Or maybe I did missunderstood what this prog for ?

My Sony DVP-S360 can read DVD Text and it can display text longer than 11 caracters by scrolling the text on the display.

How about these long DVD titles like "3000 miles of graceland" or "Robin Hood, Prince of thieves" ?

I did not know that juke box DVD player couldn't display more than 11 caracters when searching a movie in the memory list...

My pioneer dv-f727's have a 11char limit on title and 11 char limit on author in the memory list. Currently playing with proggie will remove title char limitation plus some other limitations - out later this week/weekend.

It doesn't have the dummy.ifo in it. I get this error message with the second version.

"g:\dummy.ifo File Not Found"

Looking forward to it too.

Mr Shrink could add DVDTitle support as all the number's are at his fingertips so to speak - but its not likely it will happen.

FallenAngel: would you share your knowledge about how to inject DVD text with Dr,Shrink?

May be we convince him to remove a known bug of DVDshrink: not being able to inject title as DVDTEXT
(not asking/begging for a new feature, of course!!)

You can set easily the DVD-Text general name with PgcEdit. (It has no support for chapters and titles, and doesn't work on ISO files, though.)
