I need to extract a movie from an incomplete set of files

[AnitaPeterson]

Hi there,

A rip went terribly wrong, and I need to save the movie at least.

I have all the files from VTS 1 and VTS 2... the rest are blank. VTS 1 is the movie, VTS 2 must be some trailer. I suspect the rest (VTS 3, 4,5) are just other trailers at the end plus whatever logo the mastering company put out for themselves.

So now, how do I extract just the movie, without bothering about menus and everything else?

I have IFOEdit, but I have no idea how to use it... Or what other program?

What happened to the original?

[AnitaPeterson]

The original is no longer available, (of course... Murphy's law... it always happens)

I use dvd2one, it creates a whole new set of files.

I must be doing something wrong - or i don't know how to use it, but I can't figure out how to get DVD2one to work...

There are quite a few ways to make a movie only DVD if you have the VTS of the main movie.

I think the easiest is to move all VTS_01* files to a new directory and then use DVD-Fab (the old freeware will do) to create the Video Manager (the VIDEO_TS.IFO/BUP) files. Now DVD Shrink will be able to read the structure and you can make a movie only DVD (in reauthor mode).
