SVCD to DVD authoring problem...

[justindube]

Ok, here's what I got, a SVCD movie which is divided into 4 discs. Now, I easily copied the MPG files off the SVCD's, but here is where the problem is. I want to merge them together, and then author them into a DVD. I have tried using TMPGEnc to combine the files, and it works fine for the first MPG part, but at the point when the second MPG part kicks in, the audio/video are out of sync. So, i tried using IFOEdit to make .VOB files and merge them. They merge fine and the audio is synced, but the IFO file says the movie is only 43minutes, which is the length of the first VOB/MPG file. By doing the SVCD -> DVD authoring trick listed on VCDHelp.COM, I am able to burn the DVD, but I have to make a main menu with a link to each of the 4 VOB file sets. I wanna combine it all so it wall runs as one long movie. Anyone help?
