  1. I copied a DVD to my computer using DVD decrypter. The entire DVD is of course too big of a file to burn onto a DVDR. So I want to burn only the main movie onto 1 DVD and then burn the Extras onto the 2nd DVD. Heres my question. If I do burn the two seperately, using DVD decryter, what am I supposed to do with the menus? and what will happen to the menus? how will they work if I split the DVD?

  2. I have backed up some of my DVDs the same way and in that case I usually use Clone DVD. The program allows you to choose what parts of the DVD you wish to process and burn. So using the files ripped by DVD Decrypter, I choose only the main movie for the first disc. When that is finished, I choose the menu and extra features for the second disc.

  3. If you want menus on both disks (maybe you like director's comentary or something) DVDStripper works on a lot of movies, DVDRemake works on most if not all including those that other splitting/reauthoring software can't deal with, and I hear Titlesetblanker is worth trying.

    Stripper and Blanker are free.

    I have just done this for the movie Undead. Film is about 100 minutes, with about 40 minutes of extras. I used DVD Decrypter to get it to the HDD, then Nero recode to split it up. First I kept the menus, main feature, and killed everything else. Burnt this, then reloaded into recode, kept the menus, extras, and killed the main feature. Burnt this to disk 2. Both disks have a full set of menus. Nero lets you replace the things you remove with a still of your choice, so I have some standards made in photoshop at 4:3 and 16:9 that indicate that this feature is either missing, or on another disk.

  5. Where Nero recode falls down is when you want to keep full quality and menus on bothe discs, and the main title by itself is too big for one disc. You can split the title, but you lose the menus.
