I got up early this morning and restarted the transfer of The Mind's Eye to DVD. This time I didn't delete any titles. I spent about a half hour putting in the chapter breaks and disc title. When I finalized the disc. ejected it, and played it on another DVD player, I noticed my chapter breaks weren't there. Instead, it used the default breaks, spaced 10 minutes apart.
Later, I did the same with Devo: The Men Who Make The Music. This time, both the disc title and chapter breaks didn't stick.
I also scanned the cardboard covers of the tapes and printed them out on specially perforated DVD cover stock.
I'm not completely satisfied with the results, but I'm satisfied enough to be able to watch these shows on DVD. After all, it's a personal project for private use. I have no desire or intention to make further copies. Unfortunately, that may not be good enough for the FBI, who are always on the lookout for video piracy.
