SPLITTING DVD

9. Select VTS_01_0.IFO and press Vob Extras button.
________________________________________________________________________________
10. These need to be checked.

[X] Correct Vob-Unit (Navigation Pack) pointers in VOB-files
[X] Correct original IFO files
[X] Split to 2 DVD-Rs

[X] Remove P-Uops
[X] Remove Macrovision
[X] Remove Ilvu/Angle point.
[X] Adjust Vob-Unit pointers.
[X] Adjust Audio/Subp point.

[X] AutoCopy Menu-files to destination

________________________________________________________________________________
11. Select Destination directory to your “Disk 1” sub-folder and 2nd Dest. Directory to “Disk 2”
________________________________________________________________________________
12. Press Ok.
________________________________________________________________________________
13. Cell 14 (part of Ch 14) is selected by IFOedit as a middle point to strip. Select Cell 19 (Ch 17) as your new split point. Now, stop and read.

Let me tell the logic to picking this split point. When I played my scene selection menu, this is how the chapters are grouped on each page.

Page 1 > 1, 2, 3, 4
Page 2 > 5, 6, 7, 8
Page 3 > 9, 10, 11,12
Page 4 > 13, 14, 15, 16
Page 5 > 17, 18, 19, 20
Page 6 > 21, 22, 23, 24
Page 7 > 25, 26, 27, 28

Each chapter menu is a cell. We can disable cells. Look for the nearest page menu start chapter point from your original point. What I mean in start chapter is chapters 1, 5 ,9 ,13, 17, 21, and 25. When you access any of these pages, these are the “start” chapters of each page. In this case, since Ch 14 was picked by IFOedit, our nearest “start” chapter point was either chapter 13 or 17. The logical choice would be to pick Ch. 13. But proposed to pick Ch 17. Why? Because, we will put our special features VOBs on Disk 2 only and we want to have some space to put them there. This is pretty much a judgement call. With more experience, you will learn to pick the correct split point.

So, if our Disk 1 will contain chapters 1 to 16, we can disable the scene selection pages 5 to 7 at a later step. The same concept goes for Disk 2 with chapters 17 to 28. We will disable pages 1 to 4 in Disk 2 ‘s scene selection menu.
________________________________________________________________________________
14. Make sure the “Correct IFO tables” is checked and press split it.
________________________________________________________________________________
15. With Chapter 17 highlighted as new split point, press “Split it” button and let IFOedit do it’s magic. It’s going to take awhile.
