How can I merge two dvd's into one dvdr?

[Emanef]

A friend has lent me a couple of Yoga dvd's she got as a freebie from Special K. My missus wants me to copy them, and I noticecd that they're both around 2gb each so should fit onto one dvdr. Does anyone know how I can merge them to one dvdr please?

Thanks

if you use dvdremakepro it will do this for you while preserving menus and everything else from the 2 original dvds. You select which disc you want to watch via a menu it makes (and yes you can change this menu with one of your own as well).

The newest version allows you to merge up to 4 dvds!

Yep, another vote for DVDRemake Pro here if you want to retain absolutely everything from each DVD (all extras, menus etc etc).

If it's basically just two main features, you could probably just do it with TMPGEnc DVD Author (30 day fully functional free trial), by using the Add DVD Video button (you'll need to rip the discs to your HDD first), and then selecting each title. You'd have to create your own menus though if doing it this way.

Cheers guys. Just got round to doing it and have tried the DVDshirnk route first. Just creating the files nnow so hopefully it'll be sufficient.

The guide made it clear how to add video from Multiple DVD's, but how do you include a basic menu to select the specific video ?

you can't add a menu with dvd shrink. you can use tmpgenc dvd author, dvd-lab (but you will lose subs, dts, multiple audio tracks).
