Help for the non-functioning brain.....

I have Staxrip set up just the way I need it (after thinkering around with the setting for ages). Using DVD Decrypter I can extract say a movie no problem (in IFO mode) throw those files over to Staxrip and get a great looking avi or mkv movie at much smaller capacity than the dvd itself - obviously. All standard so far.

Problem is, if I'm looking to extract/rip from say a dvd of The West Wing (which has four episodes on it) do I need to do something different with DVD Decrypter and/or Staxrip to be able to get or see the 4 episodes separately? Just so I can encode/convert them to avi/mkv so that I would have the 4 separate files instead of one big dirty file (which is what I'm getting at present).

Would really appreciate some enlightenment from guys in the know.

Thanks.

I haven't seen the DVD but you seem to be saying that DVD Decrypter in IFO Mode isn't showing the episodes separately. If so, and if they're all the same title, all in a single VTS, then you separate them out by chapters. Say there are 4 episodes per DVD and a total of 20 chapters. Then each episode consists of 5 chapters. If there's an extra chapter, 21 in this example, just ignore the last one.

So you select 5 chapters at a time for demuxing into its own folder. Adjust the numbers for your own DVD.
