SpruceUP

[klorenz]

Can someone please explain to me how to use SpruceUP instead of DVDMaestro which is way to expensive to afford to author a DVD. I am following Trilight's DVD-9 to DVD-5 "Full Copy" Instructions and i am stuck when i get to the DVDMaestro parts. I have tried using spruceup but i dont know how to rejoin the files with the IFOs. I end up getting an error in nero saying that the ifo's and vobs do not match up. Can someone please give a step by step instruction on how to maintain an exact DVD copy using SpruceUP rather than DVDMaestro. Or are there any other "cheaper" solutions. Thanks in advance!

Are u trying to copy the whole movie with menu...etc?

If so, then why not just use IFOEdit? Now on the other hand, if u had to compress the movie to fit by using an encoder then using spruce up is real simple. Just import the m2v(video)file and the audio will automatically load when the video is done. Just got to make sure they are in the same folder and have the same name. Creating the menus in Spruce up are very easy. JUst drag the background u like over and same with the buttons. When u compile the movie it will give u all u need(ifo, etc...) just burn the video and audio_vts folders to a dvd. U can use nero, just do data burn and drag the whole folder over. Done
