Could you be a little more specific? Is the warning a vob file by itself or is it part of the main movie vob file?

You can get rid of the warning by modifying the video_ts.ifo file.

The following description is somewhat generic because DVD's are authored in different ways. This should give you some idea of what needs to be done.

Look at VMGM_MAT First Play PGC. Scroll down to the PGC Command table to see whats going on. The last command in the table probably says something like: "Jump to VMG PGC: x" where x is the program chain that's going to display the warning.

Now look at VMGM_PGCI_UT, there will probably be several PGC-Menu_x entries under it. Look through PGC command table of each one of those entries. Eventually you should find one that says something like: "Jump to TitleSet(vts): 1, Title(ttn): 1, root-menu". This is the actual command to take you to the root menu. Write down the eight hex values that are on the displayed to the right of the command.

Now, go back to VMGM_MAT First Play PGC and double click on that line that read "Jump to VMG PGC: x". Modify the hex values with the values you wrote down. Save the .ifo file. Now when you play the DVD it should start immediately at the root menu.

Like I said, it may not be the same on the DVD your working on but this is how you can trace the playback sequence of your DVD and eventually you will find the command that takes you to the root menu.

I use VOBRATOR to analyze the structure and play each one of the ID's in the main movie file to see what they include. The Warnings usually have there own ID, so when I use IFOEDIT I just take that ID out of the main VOB, and can get rid of it just fine. I am not sure what process you are using, but I have been following Derrow's guide to burn just the main movie file.

Your method is fine if you don't want to keep the menus. The method I'm describing is used when you want to keep the menus and skip over the warnings.

I have searched (probably not enough) to try to find a guide for DVD navigation editing. I have a movie (brotherhood of the wolf) that plays a preview (in its own VOB title set) when you press play from the menu, prior to playing the movie. If I want to get rid of that title set, how would I change the navigation from the menu (vts_01_0.vob) to go straight to the movie, bypassing VTS_04? I have looked for the "Jump to PGC" and cannot find it....

Anyone point me at a guide?

I need a similiar guide. I'm trying to figure out how to get the DVD to jump to a specific VTS.

Smoof gave a very good description of what you can do. You can also use IfoEdit's command editor to insert or modify the last command in the First Play PGC to JumpTT to the title you want to see first, or JumpSS to the menu you want first.
To use that editor right click on the last command in the PGC.
We can't be any more explicit than this, as DVDs vary, they are computer programs. And as computer programs, in order to change them at this level you must have some understanding of how they work.

At the risk of sounding silly, that is the reason I am looking for a guide, so that I can GAIN an understanding of how it works. I have read several great pieces of info on what to try, but I was hoping there was sort of a "white book" description guide floating around out there somewhere that I could learn what each field meant. My problem was that the spot I wanted to vary the navigation was after the first menu, not at the first play pgc (Brotherhood of the Wolf shows a trailer pre-film, it's in its own VOB title set). Sorry for not asking directly, but I would rather "learn how to fish" than ask you for a fishy dinner.....

Thanks though! I appreciate all assistance!

Cheers.

One good source of information on DVDs is DVD Demystified, by Jim Taylor. If you want more specific info, but with less explanation, then look at http://mpucoder.kewlhair.com/dvd/
Derrow also has some technical details at http://mpucoder.kewlhair.com/derrow/dvdfiles.html and http://mpucoder.kewlhair.com/derrow/ifovts.html

Sorry about misunderstanding your request, usually people asking for guides want step-by-step instructions, not general info.
