Hi guys & girls

Just asking what you would say was the easiest way to put 2 movies onto the same DVD. I am a complete thicko on computers so the easiest is best for me.

I have taken 6 months to crack using DVDDecrypter & DVDshrink so please be gentle with me.

Thanks in advance

:thanks:

DVDRemake Pro seems to be the easiest.

hi there,

well, 6 months with DVDD and Shrink. lets stick with those...

1. copy one of your movies to your hard drive with Shrink writing an ISO file.
2. use daemon tools (google it) to mount the ISO file
3. analyse your other movie using Shrink, then reauthor and keep what you want
4. analyse your other movie by selecting virtual drive in Shrink then drag the movie onto your reauthored new dvd
5. transcode and your done with 2 movies on 1 DVD

Reauthor mode in Shrink is indeed what you are looking for if you don't want to preserve menus.

reauthor like Dimad advice here but choose no compression and save in hd(video_ts folder).if the result is too big for dvd-5(and maybe will be),load it in dvd-rb,apply any filter if needed(deen for example) and encode with cce or HC encoder.the result is one cool dvd-5 with 2 main movies and very good quality.
you will like the result. ;)

i couldnt agree more. although i have only used the trial versions for testing, there doesnt seem to be a lot dvdremake pro can not do :)

now, although you say you are a 'thicko' as far as computing goes, i would assume that after signing up to these forums and reading/posting for the last few months, your curiosity/interest in dvds et al, would be somewhat greater than when you started?

the only reason i ask this, is that there is an alternative to using dvd remake that will also allow you to keep functioning menus for both dvd's (except in rare cases) that is also freeware.
but i must warn you, it will require a bit of a steep learning curve along the way :)

Join two DVDs with preserving original menues (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=96211)

good luck
