1 dvd w/ FS & WS formats, how do I remove 1 format to fi

[Toaster]

So I've got this disc (Anastasia) is about 7.8gb or so, it has the Fullscreen and Widescreen versions of the film on the same disc.

I don't want to run it through SHRINK or DVDRB/CCE and reduce the quality of both releases... What I'd like to do is simply remove 1 format and burn without transcoding (or re-encoding) the movie at all. Maybe even burn 2 dvd's one with the FS version and one with the WS version, and both disc have all the extra's + menu's ---etc....

What is the easiest way to do this?

I think Elby's or Slysoft's CloneDVD2 will let you do what you want.
You will still have to process the files through the program, but no additional compression should be applied assuming what you have selected fits in a single layer.

Do this, it wil work perfectly and I ahve done it with great results. Run dvdshrink, but set the version you do NOT want, to STILL PICTURE compression. It will make it about 250MB. This will most likely bump up the main movie youi ant to 100% (untouched)

Easier than that, use VOBBlanker on the one you don't want. It will then take up 10KB

This keeps the Main Menu, extras, audio/subtitles etc etc all intact and untouched - it JUST removes the version you don't want.

Great options everyone...THANKS!

I need to try those. What I ended up doing, which was NOT what I originally expected to do but it worked was:

I used DVDfab, which let me make a disc of ONLY the WS version (no menu, no nothing else- just movie w/chapters). And a FS version (again movie only).

For what its worth, dvdfab seems to be a nice easy to understand program. Also does 1:1 copies onto 2 dvd's seemlessly and as close to 1-click as possible.

I'll have to try some of these suggestions above and see what happens. THANKS!
