Best way to do DVD9--DVD5 ? Keep Menu, get rid of extras

[bulls011]

Hey i always use dvd shrink to shrink down my dvds to a dvd5 but it still keeps the extras in Still Picture Form. How do i get rid of these all together? And save that space and make that part of the menu unclickable?
Whats the best way i can do , i want it to be kinda fast and would look good vid quality.
Thanks a lot!

you can strip out all the crap you don't want using many methods and tools, just have a browse of this forum

then use Menuedit to kill the buttons you don't need

lol

I can't really say as it all depends on whether you want free methods or methods that involve buying tools

I have my methods and can basically reauthor the DVD exactly the way I want using tools that cost around £20 in total. I don't count processing time so I'm not fussed how long it takes to process as I can walk away from the PC. Mostly it takes around 10-15 mins usertime from inserting the DVD to taking out the freshly burnt DVD-R using a combination of a few programs and around a hour processing

I know people mostly want free stuff, don't we all? , but if you want 1:1 but removing selective content, not just titles. How long does it take you in usertime getting from A to B and what value do you put on your 'free' time? Like I said I don't include processing time as I can walk away from the PC . I've saved loads of 'free' time with these apps and I mean, how many DVD's do you need to backup in a day, so what's the hurry in processing time for people?

For what you want to do. the best tool out there is DVDStripper. It's not free but it'll be the best $20.00 you ever spent. It will allow you to strip ANYTHING from the DVD, including warning messages, rating screens, extras, etc. Usually if you strip extras and leave menus, you can get the DVD down to DVDR size without having to re-encode. Works great!
