How to backup 2 Sided DVD's

[BQuicksilver]

Title says it all. I own 3 DVD-10 movies (Robin Hood, Goodfellas, and Gangs of New York) and never watch them since I hate the interruption of switching the movie over.

Does anyone have good instuctions detailed enough for a relative newbie to understand?

Thanks in advance!

do a search for two-sided to one or look for my posts I have and several others have posted a link that addresses this issue. it helped me do Robin hood for the first time very easy . I would find th link for you right now but I am in a bit of a rush running late sorry

rip both sides using ifo mode, stream processing and demux video and audio from both sides/discs.

import them into Maestro as two seperate movies and play them right after each other.
when done, use your favorite shrinking application to squeeze it down.

Toona, that link you gave in the old thread is now dead.

I've used Maestro before, but would prefer not to use it if possible. Any other ideas?

I've never done it but I would try this first:

Rip each side with DvdDecrypter to seperate directories.
Rename the second title set to vts_02_x.ifo/vob and move them to the first directory, delete the video_ts.ifo . With DVD Toolbox make a new Video_ts.ifo and then drag/drop that on to DvdShrink - compress, backup.
Done.

Might just work....

I've never used DVD toolbox....do you have any instuctions on how to make a new ifo with it?

Has anyone actually done this method?

[dvd_maniac]

You could rip both sides and import them into ulead using the import dvd video function. just import them both into your project then shrink with your favorite shrink program...

DVD Toolbox has a button on the first page called make Video_ts.ifo
Enter the path above in the first line and hit that button - done.

Could you link to when I can find DVD toolbox? The one I downloaded had no such button.:confused:
