L-SMASH Source

[LigH]

@Monamona:

Reading from authored files on optical discs is not recommendable for at least 2 reasons:

a) authored content may be logically spread across several file segments, and L-SMASH Works cannot read from more than one source file, and surely not follow the logical path (e.g. ProGram Chain across VOB segments of a DVD Video, as defined in IFO files)

b) optical devices are stressed by random instead of sequential reading, and multi-threaded decoding may seek forth and back

To convert with AviSynth based tools, you should always extract a logical "movie" from the optical disc to a harddisk into one continuous file (e.g. MakeMKV can handle both DVD and Blu-ray Video media).
