Does anyone have a method using "purely" linux programs, to backup a DVD9 to a DVD5 (and still retain the original menu's), without using an MS-Windows program running under wine (such as IfoEdit and VobBlanker) ?

Backing up the main title doesn't seem to be a problem for me (using only programs compiled specifically for linux), but without resorting to "wine", I haven't been able to find a way to keep the original menus (and also keep multiple sound-tracks, and subtitles) during a DVD9 to a DVD5 backup.

You can import the original menus back in the reauthored DVD with PgcEdit, which is also a Linux program. (But you need Wine if you want to use the preview.)
Take in mind that you will need to rebuild the navigation commands, if your reauthored DVD has lost the original commands. Of course, you can do that with PgcEdit also, but that requires a good understanding of the DVD technicity.
