sooo...I am trying to make a backup of a dvd that is about 9 gb. All I really care about are the episodes on the dvd, of which there are 6 episodes, in about 7 GB total. They are on VTS_02. VTS_01_0 has the menu files, and 01_1 and and 03_1 have extras that I really don't care about.
Here's my problem:
7 GB is too large to really reencode well without a noticable quality loss, so I want to split the episodes to 2 DVDRs. However, since they are episodes of a series, and not a movie, I want to keep the menu intact, especially its language options and chapter selection options. All of the split-to-2 dvdr solutions (according to the guides) seem to put the most of the files and the menu onto one disc, and leave out the menu and only have movie files on the second disk.
Sooo...how do I go about ripping a dvd-9 to 2 dvdrs AND still keeping working menus on both disks (and getting rid of extras if possible)? Would I have to make new menus? how? Any help would be greatly appreciated. If there's something in the guides that tells me how to do this, I apologize in advance for missing it and please request that someone post a link to the appropriate area, or summarize the method/programs used.
THANKS!!!:D
