    Is this easily possible?

    I am trying to make copies of home-recorded TV show episodes to trade with other people.

    I can easily copy the whole disk, but sometimes I just need certain episodes from different dvds.

    Ripping them to the HD with DVDShrink is no problem, but then I can only burn the ones I want to a dvd without a menu showing what's actually on the dvd.
    Basically, you have to fast forward through everything else, to get to the last episode.

    Is there an EASY way to do this with the programs I have (DVDShrink, Nero) or any free programs, or should I just tell people to live with it, or only get one episode per dvd.

    I'm not making any money on this and it's basically just a favor for other fans of this show that's old and will probably never come out on dvd, so I don't want to spend a huge amount of time on doing this.

    I was hoping to maybe burn these in several sessions to an +rw, but found out that's not possible?

    I would use shrink in reauthor mode to compile all the episodes to a single disk, then tmpgenc dvd author to create a simple menu and add chapter stops

    Thanks!

    I guess there is no free version of this program, right?

    I would just use VOBBlanker - you can just blank the episodes you don't want, while leaving all menus and everything else intact, and it's free. The episodes you've removed just play a black screen for a second or two if selected from the menu, then return to the menu.
    If in doubt, Google it.
