There's two PGC's on the discs and they both seem to be the same. When I load the files in DVDShrink I get title1 and title2 for the movie and they both seem to be the same.

What does it mean when there's two PGC's in a VTS?

What's the best way to handle this in Shrink?

This I think is like MATRIX follew the white rabit. DVD2ONE and cloneDVD are little easier to use just copy the one with the real chapter lay out. play the movie as if you was going to sit down and watch it and ;ets say the laster chapter is 33. The other one you will get a pop of some thing. When you hit enter on the remote the movie goes behind the seen's on hot it was made when it over it goes back to the movie.

In DVD Shrink 3.0 beta 5 , go to View and check "Combine Shared Titles" after files are loaded.

The Hulk is like this also. It seems it has to do with chapter selection and the menus. Like at the start of the DVD, you can select play movie, or go to chapters. If you look in DVDDecrypter, both movies are the same exact size and time length. For one movie it shows a bunch of cells, for the other it only shows one, but it shows the same amount of chapters. You would want to copy the one without all of the cells, which in this case would be the first one.

i am not 100% sure which version you have (i am dealing with PAL R4) it actually has different chapters for pgc1 (33 from memory) than pgc2 (12??). this is because pgc2 contains the 'Button Over Video' links to the 'making of' video.
i am not positive (as i havent tried using dvdshrink on it yet) but i would try using pgc2 and seeing if it retained the BOV functionality or not....worth a go!
otherwise you might as well strip out the other titles on the disk cos i dont think they would work if you selected only pgc 1.
....well thats my guess anyway ;)
