I purchased my Dvd-r unit to back up my extensive Anime collection (which is becomming expensive to replace every time my 8 year old son accidentally throws the dvd across the room).
Most of the dvds copy straight as they are almost exclusively dvd5.
However, when trying to backup my Cowboy Bebop series I found that I would have to resort to putting 3 episodes per disk (instead of the original 4 or 5).
This isn't so much a problem, I ripped the vobs and pulled out the parts I didn't like with Vobedit, and put them back together.
I used IfoEdit to create a new ifo for the new set of vobs and when watching the episodes straight there is no problem.
The problem occurs when I want to skip ahead. If for instance I am in the 3rd section of the second episode, and I hit forward, it will go to the 4th section of the first episode. The only way I can get to a track that is past the first episode is to hit forward without stopping that number of times, then it will load.
This problem could be avoided I believe if I could create an ifo file that included the three separate vob sets (rather than having me rename them all to one set).
But in anycase, I hope this isn't an issue where the only solution is to re-author as I don't like having to hassle with pulling subtitles out and putting them back in etc.
ideally I could just grab the vobs that have the episodes, rename them so they are sequential (in case there was a set of extras or something in between I want to get rid of) and create a new ifo for all of them.
Thanks in advance for any help.
