Q: In-Point in movie

1:44:13 long movie starts on 1:30:00 - chapter back brings me back in steps to the begin, though it is not normal?

 

I have least good experience with movies longer than 2 hours; this one isn't, though in general, should they not be as long for iDVD?

    With iDVD you can use a single layer disc for movies as long as two hours. If you want to go longer than that a double layer disc will take you to about three hours and 45 minutes.

     

    Here's the problem though. The whole world has switched to M-DISC because of its 1000 your lifetime. These are not made as double layer discs. So for movies longer than two hours I now use M-DISC Blu-rays.

    So far as good. I have written the output to disc to check. Your reply is helpful for me.

     

    But why starts the output of iDVD, checked on DVD-player, on an inner point?
