Hi there

If anybody is using DEVEDE to create DVD's whether on Linux or Windows and gets the message at the end - Cannot Write to destination directory then it's not a problem with permissions etc.

This error happens if there's some invalid characters in the SUBTITLES -- so simply open the subtitle file with Subtitle Composer and save as UTF-8.

Even easier way in Windows -- Open with NOTEPAD, change encoding to UTF-8 and simply save !!!!

Problem solved !!

Cheers
jimbo
