Well it wasn't made on a Mac... It was made on some manner of tv to dvd
product or possibly on a PC. It plays fairly well on my iMac except the
chapter title page (I'm not sure what you call it... The menu where you
choose the chapter you want to see) doesn't show up until the end of the dvd
and doesn't really work. I'm thinking it wasn't mastered correctly, but I
want to salvage the info that _is_ on it.

My lasonic claims to play everything and hasn't balked once before this.
