View Full Version : What? Two identical 'titles' on the DVD?

Hi. I'm starting doing something very new, for me.
My aim id to split exactly a DVD9 in two DVD5; the first DVD which will contain part of the movie and all extras, the 2nd which will contain only the remaining part of the movie.
I have found that an old version of DVD Shrink (2.3) includes the 'starty/snd' button, and followinf the guide present in http://www.dvdshrink.info/splitting-v2-3.php I thought that splitting ripped DVD9 ---> 2* DVD would be very easy.

Yesterday, when I was learning to use this procedure, I found a very strange issue. I put my DVD of 'Daredevil' and all programs I used (DVD Shrink 3.2, 2.3, DVD Decrypter, ReJig in IFO mode) said that the movie (1:39:10) was on 'Title 1' and 'Title 3' (even if DVD Decrypter, in IFO mode which I use if I need to rip the moviie only, enlighted only Title 1).
What happens is that DVD decrypter in 'File mode' sees that the DVD contains 5980 MB of files, but if I go to DVD Shrink, it puts under'main movie' both Title 1 and Title 3 (both of about 5 Gb). That is, under 'main movie' I see (Title 1 + 3) both about 5 Gb large and a movie over 3h long!
Please note that the audio streams which exist cannot be distinguished; I see an English AC3 trace, and Italian [my native language] AC3 trace, an Itaian DTS trace and a trace containing 'director comments'.

What should I do? Ignore Title 3 and back up the whole titles presend on the DVD excluding title3 or what?
I wouldn't have an un-readable output, and I'm sure the DVD cannot contain 10 Gb so the 'title 1 and 3' seem to be he same (or, maybe, the same movie with a different type - same language but different content - of dubbing).
Thanks for your support.

Hi!My aim id to split exactly a DVD9 in two DVD5; the first DVD which will contain part of the movie and all extras, the 2nd which will contain only the remaining part of the movie.The software ideally suited to do exactly this is the old (freeware) version 0.17 of DVD Fab (NOT DVDFab Decrypter).

You can get DVDFab v.0.17 at:

Titles 1 and 3 share cells. They are, in the main, copies of the same thing just given a different title number. Sometimes this will be because the other title has something a bit different - maybe a scene in a different language for example. But in the main they are the same.

Best is to use VobBlanker (http://jsoto.posunplugged.com/vobblanker.htm) - guide on site to splitting. You can keep the menus on both disks this way. Keep title 1 and 3 on both disks in exactly the same proportion (eg. if chapter 1-12 is on disk 1 for title 1, it should also be there for title 3 - it won't take up any more room, cos it re-uses Title 1's cells)
