DVD IFO Frameserving to Handbrake crash.

For the most part, frameserving from Vegas to Handbrake works beautifully and gives me the best web publishing renders I have ever seen.

The one exception is if I try to re-render a portion of a DVD by dragging the IFO onto the timeline. What happens is that the frame-served render hums along up until the point where there is a division between to VOBs and than stops at that point never to get past it.

Regular IFO renders work fine through the joints.

I edit a sermon out of a DVD and post it once a week and I would love to be able to do the edit in Vegas. Right now I'm doing it in Womble MPEG Wizard, but there is a little glitch at the VOB joints. Anyway, since this is a regular occurrence, I have tried frame-serving IFO edits quite a number of times, and it always fails in exactly the same way: stopping and not recovering at the VOB joints.

I don't have time to work it right now, but have you tried nesting the IFO in one Vegas project opening it in another project a rendering from the second project?

Notice I don't even consider this proposal scientific?

I tried nesting and I tried frame serving directly from the Vegas timeline containing multiple linked IFOs and both methods went to completion in Handbrake. I was using files copied from a 2004 DVD that made with who knows what application.

Sounds like GOP discontinuities between VOBs.
If this is from a set top DVD recorder this is likely the case.
See if VideoRedo Plus takes care of it. Run it through the Quickstream Fix utility.
