I'd like to take an episode from several different DVDs and put them onto one DVD. But I'd like to keep the menus and Chapters for those individual episodes to make them more professional looking. It's just for my own personal use because I hate getting out 8 sets of dvds, getting one disk out, watching that one 20 min episode, and repeating.

I'm not sure what programs to use to rip, encode, or author nor any complicated settings to make this work.

Please help me out. Thanks alot!

By the way, the eventual encoding doesnt really matter all that much to me... just which ever is easiest. VCD, SVCD, Xvid, DIVX.. I can view them all on my player. I just dont know which can still be divvied up into chapters and such.
