I'm uncertain if this will do exactly what you are looking for deathmule, but I note that PgcEdit version 0.6.1 (just released) has added a
New function "File -> Replace VTST Titles" to replace the current VTST domain by an imported one. Can be used to replace a VTST domain after a reencoding or a shrink of a title with DVDShrink in reauthor mode.I can't recall the discussions on it during beta testing phase as to any limitations or issues to be aware of, so suggest first creating a backup if you give it a go.

Just be sure to have the same number of chapters, audio and subpics if you keep the original chapter, audio or subpic menus (unless you are experienced enough to modify them to adapt them at the new title.)

Other than the new, nice "Replace VTST Titles" function in PgcEdit, there're these two alternative methods, also using freeware tools:

1. Use VobBlanker's Replace PGC function. Seek further guidance here (http://www.videohelp.com/~jsoto/guides/VobBlanker/adding_menus/index.htm).

2. Copy the VTS files containing the new movie manually into the original folder, renaming VTS_01_1.VOB to VTS_06_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB to VTS_06_2.VOB and so on, and thus replacing the movie. Afterwards, use IfoUpdate or BatchUpdateIFO to correct the IFO files.
