SCAN WINDOW
This window is a modal one and pops up when a VOB (Titles) scan is going to be done.
VOB Scan can be automatically started when loading a new DVD (see more settings ) or directly from main menu in Main VobBlanker window (File -> Scan VOBs).
Scan can be aborted using the Abort button.
Scaning the VOB allows to get the size of the subs, an accurate size of audio (if VBR) and also is used to get the number of buttons in Titles domain, called BOVs (if any).
Note there is a different scan (see VOBs full scan ) used to verify the ini/end cell pointers. A full scan also does all the work done by standard scan, but in a different (and safer) way. The differences between the two procedures are:
Standard VOB Scan:
- Explores cell by cell, trusting the pointers in the IFO. Uses C_ADT table to locate the cells and VOBU_ADMAP to locate the VOBUs. Explores one VOBU each "N" in the cell.
- Explores only titles domain.
- Stores (in memory and ini file) the estimated sizes of audio and subs streams.
- Refresh the # buttons in titles domain.
Full VOB Scan:
- Expores all the VOB files, starting in sector 0 and finishing in the last one. Check the ini/end pointer cells stored in the IFOs, and modifies (in memory) the pointers with the actual ones (if needed)
- Explores Menus and Title domains (selectable).
- Also stores (in memory and ini file) the actual sizes of audio and subs streams.
- Refresh the # buttons in titles domain.
