Re: Unknown file type

Frederik,

if you're getting the message 'ERROR: Unknown file type' with DVD Studio
Pro it is either an incompliant file with some sort of weired data
structure or you probably try to use an already mutliplexed stream which
even is not possible. DVD Studio Pro requires elementary streams. We did
a lot of test with 3rd party streams and most of them worked fine with
DVD Studio Pro (Optibase, Zapex, Sonic, Pinnacle etc. only to mention a
few). If you own the encoder which has been used for that encoding you
perhaps should verify the settings you've been using for the encoding.
