Two DVDs to One?!?!

[czTempe]

Okay, I have a question for all of ye...I have Metallica's Cunning Stunts, and I'm using DVD2ONE, and I have the concert, and it'll fit on one disc when its ripped, but I'm not sure how to burn it so that I can access it all in a whole. I'm using Nero to burn, and that's pretty much it. How would I go about doing this?

Hmm? Not sure what you're saying.

1) If the DVD is single layer (will fit on one DVDR) just use DVD Decrypter to back it up (skip DVD2one step):

2) If you ran DVD2ONE on the ripped DVD you should have gotten a VIDEO_TS folder, you burn that onto your DVDR.

3) If you ran DVD2ONE on the ripped DVD, but only got 'the main movie' without the menus/extras etc, but want them (and the method #1 is no good). Take a look at the guides to the left. I normally use either Instant Copy or re-author with CCE and spilce the vobs back in for this.

Yeah, I reread what I said, it didn't seem too good lol. Uh...the DVD set is two disc. When I rip disc one, it equals 2.17 gig, when I rip disc two it equals 1.83 gig. How would I put this on one DVD, and maintain the 5.1 track, the subtitles, and the chapters?

OK, take a look at:

You can join two VOB structures together this way, however this is for continous play video. Not sure how the menus would act if you did this. You might want to re-author making a new menu to choose either 'menu disc a' or 'menu disc b'.
