Removing Seamless Branching?

[mr.zebra]

Hey all, I did a search, but couldn't find a topic newer than 2005, and since we're on a much newer version of remake, I figured I'd ask, so... Is there an easy way in DvdReMake Pro 3.5.3 to remove seamless branching? I know you can right click the vts and select strip angles for angles, but I dont see anything for seamless? Please forgive if this is covered somewhere, but I really didnt see it. Thanks in advance. Z

Seamless branching is very easy to strip with DRM. The discs i've seen with seamless branching are constructed with multiple PGC's. Each PGC contains a different version of the main movie; theatrical release and the director's cut for example. Both PGC's are containing a number of blocks who are the same, these are substituded with each other. There are also a number of blocks in each PGC which are different from each other. These are version specific blocks. You just need to select the PGC from the version you want to remove and hide all blocks, that's it. Of course you'll need to bypass the menu buttons so you can't select the stripped version.

Thanks for the response drama! One question, will it automatically remove the ilvu pointers as well? I only ask because I'm worreid about getting a "stutter" on my player if the ilvu points to a cell i've hidden, because drmp places a "layer break" on every cell of the hidden pgc. Thanks again

It's supposed to remove the ILVU references if there is only 1 PGC left. You shouldn't get any stutter or pause if you hide the menu button that is going to this hidden PGC.
