Video DVD mastering problem with menues

[Volker Kuhlmann <hidden@paradise.net.nz>]

Seems like I just fell over an old problem again:

mkisofs: Implementation botch. Video pad for file VTS_01_0.IFO is -6
mkisofs: Either the *.IFO file is bad or you found a mkisofs bug.

Discussed in 2002:

DVD layout created with some M$ tool (I can find out which if needed).
DVD plays fine elsewhere. I want to remaster it and copied files to hard
disk; unless there was an error copying the files (very unlikely)  the
files on DVD would have to be correct + functional. All files:

mkisofs 2.01 (x86_64-suse-linux)

SUSE 10.1.

I have 4 other DVDs all showing the same problem with mkisofs (only the
negative number in the error is different).

Has there ever been a solution to this, or is this something new? The
thread from 2002 suggests a fix for mkisofs 2.0.

Thanks,

Volker
