So I am getting this error message about a place holder or whatever and from what i have seen you guys saying is its because the file is missing. This makes sense to me, but I was just wondering how i would go about downsizing a movie as well as taking out some of the extras. I have been able to use vobblanker and blank out all the extras that i didn't need, and with some movies, it would be enough to fit on a DVD-5. The problem I am having is sometimes i would do this, it would be to large still, so i would mount the image i have and then run it threw DIF4U and all those programs. That is when I am getting this error. So I was just wondering how i would go about doing this.

The 'big 3' process has always been designed to keep the entire disc. You can always use vobblanker first as you have suggested.

When I blank out the previews and other aspects of the movie I don't want to keep, I used PCGEdit AFTER I process with DIF4U. Simply leave the VTS's that you don't want to keep unchecked in DIF4U, then after its done, open up PCGEdit and blank out the corresponding files in the VIDEO_TS folder that DIF4U created.
