So heres the deal.
I have some home video footage thats on a DVD but the person who did the original transfer left a lot of trailing black at the end (about 2 hours haha)
I've already ripped the files to my computer (with Mac The Ripper) and I want to trim out the black bits and then re-burn to DVD... without losing quality.
I know I could use MPEG Streamclip to trim, but not sure where to go from there... I could do what I normally do -- export as .mov with DV compression but that will result in a huge file thats only going to get recompressed...
so it seems silly to go that route.
I was reading the help and I thought de-mux might work but when I put them into Toast they show up as two seperate files rather than one (like it said it would).
I have both Toast and DVD Studio Pro (though DVDSP might be overkill?).
Any thought? thanks in advanced!

thanks for the quick response.:: ehmjay. -
I always use 'regular' demux in MPEG Streamclip, without problems.
But honestly I wouldn't know what the others are for. -
i usually just save as vob and it works fine, but not always on toast..i somtimes have to use mpeg2works to make a dvd ready disc image...

352x480 is a legal DVD resolution, so it could be right. Verify the source resolution with MediaInfo Mac and a secondary tool (e.g. MPEG Streamclip's Show Stream Info) to be sure.
