Please tell us more. Do you have a set of vob files or mpg/mpv/mp3/ac3 files???

[Robg7]

i have 2 sets of vob files ....

I demux the vob files using vobedit then import them in to maestro or spruceup. For menus I use tool called dvd menu studio and import the result psd files into maestro.

johnjohn, when you rip both dvds to your drive, are they in two seperate folders and when you demux them how do u put them in Maestro ?
I've used maestro for svcds, is it a similar method ????

[johnjohn]

fatbloke,
Both ripped dvds are in two seperate folder and when use vobedit demux all video and audio for each dvd and I save the ac3 and m2v in the same two dvd folder then later rename both demux movie files to movie1.m2v movie1.ac3 and movie2.m2v and movie2.ac3 for simplicity. then import all of them in to maestro using import assets. also import my menu files (.psd) and author dvd.. its preety easy .. My main menu contains a picture of 2 movies in splitscreen like view and text like play movie 1, movie 2 or link to second menu for chapters... possibilities are endless on how you want to make the main menu for selecting each movie are upto your choice. In my recent one I used screen capture from windvd for each movie and combine them in dvd menu studio or you can use any photo editing software...
