I have figured out how to join two dvd's in pgcedit by clicking new dvd and import vtst titles. What do I need to do to keep the chapter points that are already present? I authored the dvd's with ifoedit and put in the chapter points myself and they work fine--they just don't appear when I join the dvd's in pgcedit. Sorry if this has been covered somewhere--I'm still a noob at this stuff.

EDIT I think I should be more specific with what I am trying to do. I have 2 separate concert dvd's that I want to join into one. I authored them with ifoedit and included chapter points, which work fine. I want to put them together as one dvd but don't want any menus. I just want them to play straight through, having the second start when the first one gets to the end. I also want to be able to use the chapter points I assigned. Can I do this with pgcedit?

EDIT 2 Ok, I'm dumb. I had to click save dvd. Now I just have the problem that once the first video is finished playing, it won't continue to the second video. How can I set it up to go from the end of the first to the start of the second?

EDIT 3 Nevermind, dvdshrink did the trick.

DVDShrink is indeed the easiest way to compiles several titles, if you don't want the original menus.

If you want top be able to jump easily from title to title with the remote, have a look at the DVDShrink plugin for PgcEdit. It has 2 functions to enhance the navigation capabilities of a DVDShrink compilation.

DvdShrink merges just titles loosing menus and original disks structure. If these are needed you can do it with DvdReMake.
