AnyDVD + Videoredo produce DVD I can't play on a PC

[Rau]

Hi

I've used AnyDVD HD 6.7.6.0 to "copy DVD" to my hard disk, and then used the DVD burner in Videoredo TVSuite V4 to produce a (duplicate) DVD (DVD+R Dual Layer).

The problem is that the resultant DVD cannot be played successfully on my PC, but can be played on my PS3.

On the PC, an opening title (an MGM 'splash screen', several seconds long) is played - then nothing. I tried WMP, WMC, VLC and HP Quickplay, all with same/similar result.

I also tried playing the DVD from the copy on the harddisk (produced by AnyDVD). That seems to work OK (eg. using VLC), but not sure if that is definitive proof that AnyDVD is not the problem.

I compared the files/sizes on the original disk with the AnyDVD copies and with the those on the duplicate disk and noted:

1) that a number of the larger .vob files were very slightly different size in the harddisk copy than the original DVD (otherwise, files matched);
2) The duplicate DVD matches the AnyDVD hard disk copy, except for two files - one is VTS_01_0.BUP and the other VTS_01_0.IFO. The AnyDVD made files are 84KB (same as orig DVD) whereas those on the duplicate disk are 24KB.

I've attached 2 files - first is the AnyDVD log of the original DVD, the 2nd is an AnyDVD log of the 'duplicate' DVD. [The file ending "_EN" is the original.]

Thanks
PS: I've been using AnyDVD for quite a while without a hitch and am really happy with it.
