Here's my problem. I used DVD Decryptor to rip the "Movie Only" files for use with DVD2SVCD to make SVCDs, but I want to make a DVD now. I no longer have the original handy. When I throw the ifo file at DVDShrink or DVD2One they both spit the dummy about missing files. I was hoping to keep the original chapter info. Thanks.

I didn't mention this was a home video DVD. Thanks for the assumption of guilt.

Usually I am a calm person, but if someone is mocking me so obviously I get really mad.

U used decryptor for ripping your own home made dvd to make a svcd. This means that ...
a. u have lost or destroyed by any means the original material on tape. Otherwise I can't see any reason why u wouldn't use the, by far, superior tape quality material.

b. u still have the dvd, right?

If u haven't lost somewhere the dvd also but u have lent it to a friend or family, why u can't wait a few days for it to return?

I didn't mention this was a home video DVD. Thanks for the assumption of guiltAnyone that has read the thread by now has concluded the same.

Anyway, in the unlike event that the assumptions I made r wrong, I ll be more than happy to hear your reply and apologise if I have to.

The DVD is a family video owned by my Uncle in Brisbane. (Thousands of kilometres from me in Melbourne) I used DVD decryptor because I am a DVD noob and didn't know any better.

Under the light of the current explanations I think that an apologie is in order.

However, one must admit that my thoughts were not at all baseless.
Does actually such a word exist?

baseless
adj : without a basis in reason or fact; "baseless gossip"; "the allegations proved groundless"; "idle fears"; "unfounded suspicions"; "unwarranted jealousy" [syn: groundless, idle, unfounded, unwarranted] ;)


Would IfoEdit not do the trick here?

thank's for your input and ofcourse ifoedit can be used.

vcdude u can use ifoedit to recreate the missing ifo file.
Just open ifoedit, press the 'create ifo button and select the vobs that u have in your hd.
