Naming and ordering of HD DVD titles

Post by trondmm »

Hi.

I've finally started ripping my HD DVDs with MakeMKV, and I've noticed that MakeMKV gets the names wrong if there's a "play all" option that the title is part of.

Here's a simplified excerpt from the VPLST000.XPL of the Galapagos HD DVD.
<Title titleNumber="3" id="MainMovie" displayName="PlayAll">...</Title>
<Title titleNumber="4" id="Episode1" displayName="Episode1">...</Title>
<Title titleNumber="5" id="Episode2" displayName="Episode2">...</Title>
<Title titleNumber="6" id="Episode3" displayName="Episode3">...</Title>

This results in the files:
t00_PlayAll.mkv
t04_PlayAll.mkv
t05_PlayAll.mkv

It turns out that title 5 is episode 1, title 0 is episode 2 and title 4 is episode 3

I have the same problem with deleted scenes, if there's a "play all" option there. All files will be named "play all" instead of the actual name of the scene.

I also think it would be useful to be able to choose if you want to rip the "play all" title, or the individual titles. When I rip a TV-series, I'd like to have the episodes individually, but in the case of special features, like deleted scenes, I usually prefer to have it as one file with chapters, instead of many small files. In the GUI, the individual titles could be placed as sub-items under the "play all"-item. This would be expanded by default, with the individual titles selected, and the "play all" title unselected.
