Hello

I want to use ifoedit to remove references to the main movie in video_ts.ifo, so that I'm just left with the menu to navigate the extras. Trouble is, prassi won't burn because there's a reference to the main vobs (vob1) and I don't have the files present.

I realise I have to keep vob1_0 (as that has the menu animations in it).

Just how do I remove all references to the main movie in vob1?

PS please don't point me to the idiot's guide on keeping the menu, it doesn't help!

Actually the idiots guide would help a lot, If all you want to do is keep the extras and delete the movie, their are 2 things you could do.

1. If the VTS_01_1.vob set has the main movie in it and nothing else, then you can just go ahead and delete the set of VOBs, then open up IFOedit, and load the corresponding .ifo file (i.e. VTS_01_1.ifo) and then for all the PGC's just delete playback. Then you have a fully working DVD with no movie, but lots of extras.

2. You could also just strip out all the cells for that perticular set of VOBs containing the main movie. Obviously do this using IFOedit.
