spliting a film in 2 for less compression ?

[jeroenskie]

Dear people.
I want to copy a film but the compression will be about 8.
I think this is maybe to much ,so i'm thinking about using 2 dvdr to have a better result .
A: is this a smart thing to do ?
B: is this possible with DVD schrink?and How?

kind regards Jeroenskie

Is DVD SCHRINK the german version ?!..

But to answer your question..No DVD SHRINK wont split a film into two but DVDXCOPY will or if you want a freebie use IFOEDIT. Its not that easy to use but there are guides for it.

You can split a DVD to 2 DVD-Rs with DVD Shrink

Only a simple use of the "Start/End" feature is required.

Disc 1:
- Go to re-author mode.
- Drag one instance of the main movie to the "New DVD" window.
- Use "Start/End": start wherever you want the movie to start, end with the last chapter you want to appear on your first DVD-R.
- Use the preview to check the "cut" is where you want it to be.
- Backup in a folder (named "TITLE_OF_THE_MOVIE_D1" >> "VIDEO_TS", for example)

Disc 2:
- Use "Start/End" again, this time start with the chapter following the one you chose as last one on disc 1, and end at the end of the movie (or wherever you want the movie to end).
- Use the preview to check the "cut" is where you want it to be.
- Backup in a different folder (named "TITLE_OF_THE_MOVIE_D2" >> "VIDEO_TS", for example).

Burn each folder to separate DVD-Rs.

Et voila!!

Or use dvdfab (<--Click on the link for some guides), it can also split to two dvds.
