Hi Peter,

Yes !!! please give the patch.

I am currently building my own VDR box, and I plan to install the burn plugin.

Thanks,

Eric.

Hi list,

when recently recording and burning some music programs via VDR

and the burn plugin I wondered if it would be possible to interprete remaining recording marks as DVD chapters. I tried an extended version of the plugin which I found somewhere in the vdr-portal. As far as I could see chapters are neither supported nor in plan. Because it did not work at all I switched back to the original version and played a little bit today.

After reading the dvdauthor manpage I recognized that I do not need titles (tracks) but chapters to have song-skipping functionality in a consumer DVD player. I then saw that it is done relativly easy in the XML configuration and modified the burn plugin sources. I tested this with a Tom Petty concert at deleted the cutting marks and placed new marks before every song. To my surprise all modifications worked correctly and I have chapters on the DVD and can skip between songs. If someone is interested in this feature I could create a patch. Maybe the feature can be integrated into the plugin but a bit more testing ist required I think

Best regards

Peter
