No it won't, unless somebody likes to open files under DOS / Win 3.1.

I think that the maximum number of characters is counted including the folder(s) name. So you may also try to shorten it.

[quote=mgwfall;980052] this means can't reseed or trade these shows in FLAC format as they are no longer the original.

You can't reseed directly from a DVD anyhow, so when you copy back to your hard drive, simply rename it back to the original.

The fingerprints and/or MD5's shouldn't change, so I don't see what the problem would be with trading, either.

Thanks for the replies

i can't be fer sure, but i believe its sometimes caused by conflicts with the OS/prog package the discs were authored with [unfortunately i don't have the time to test that theory out]

but you are correct in the fact the video/audio content has not been changed...the most important part is that when the checksum is run, all of the .vob files check out fine...however many collectors want the orig file set without changed ifo/bup, others don't care -- every collector is different

You are copying professionally authored dvd's?

Oh, nevermind, carry on.
