Help with multi-pgc titles

[IamCaleb]

I've been having problems re-encoding multi pgc titles with dvd maestro. I've been following different guides, and many of them refer to using playlists in maestro. However I'm unable to find where playlists are located. Please help me!!

If you have a multi-pgc title then you need to make sure you rip just the pgc that you want to your hard drive. I use smartripper. When it loads up it will usually have the main movie and the correct pgc selected. Just make sure that under the file splitting setting that you have every vob file selected and it will rip just the pgc that you need. Then make your m2v file for maestro with whatever method you prefer (I use the DVD2SVCD method) and have maestro compile the dvd. The audio shouldn't be out of sync. The reason that it is is because the other pgc's add to the begining of the movie and it causes the audio to be out of sync. Hope that helps.

Thanks for your reply. What I'm trying to do is copy all the extras and everything on the dvd. I know how to rip just a single pcg and make a movie-only dvd. The problem I'm having is combining for example 3 pgcs back in to the same VTS. For example a movie that I'm doing right now has 2 pgcs for the extras one of them is 20 minutes one is 10 and I'm trying to figure out how to get them back together again after I re-encode using CCE. I've tried puting them back together in Maestro, but I can't figure out how to make a multi-pgc movie.
