  1. I've created 2 movies with their full structure, (chapters,languages, menus & subtitles) and both together are small enough to fit onto a 4.7GB DVD-R.
    Would it be possible to create a DVD movie disc that starts by playing my own intro/logo clip and then leads to a menu page that gives a choice of which movie to select WITHOUT losing the movies structures, and what software/s would be best and/or easiest to achieve this?

    Thanx,

  4. But can I import the already compiled VIDEO_TS/.vob files into these programs? I don't want to re-encode back to .mpg/m2v.

    Thanx,

  5. There is a guide in the guides section called "How to create a multi-title multi-audio DVD". It basically uses DVDFab to create a VIDEO_TS.IFO for multiple titles.

    I've never used DVDFab, and I'm not sure how you get from 1 title to the next, but it may be worth a look.

    Alternatively, you may be able to create a simple video_TS.IFO/VOB/BUP that has a menu that plays 2 titles. Then use that with your 2 title sets, and do a get VTS_Sectors in IFOEdit.

    If you go this route, you are going to learn alot about the structure of a dvd and IFO file.
