This is what I did to Get my LOTR.EE to one disc.
First use Dvd-Shrink and put both movies and audio tracks in the re-author window and have it reauthor the vobs for ya to one folder, use no recompression, this will allow CCE to work for ya instead of a transcoder. You can cut the credits or the intermission screen or whatever else you want through dvd-shrink. Whatever you use as your folder output you should have all the vobs and 2 different sets of vts. One being the first part of the movie, the other being the second. I had to sets of 6 vobs totalling 12 vobs of the main movie
Then next part I did was rename the vobs from the second vts in line with the first
LOTR.EE_1_06
Change
LOTR.EE_2_01
into
LOTR.EE_1_07
Run these through create IFO using IFOEDIT v0.96. It will create a new IFO containg the joined vts sets info.
The next part I used DVD2SVCD or DVD2DVD whatever you want to call it, to downsample with CCE. I tried to use the Big Three (my favorite tools, but it wouldn't accept a single vts set now) This worked perfect, i didn't encode the ac3 file, i left it alone from the orignal vobs created from the dvd-shrinking.
The Next part took me 2 weeks to figure out. During remuxing using IfoEdit, and Maestro the ac3 sound wouldn't be accepted because of a dropped flag frame of the ac3. The second part of the movie set of vobs had no sound. I almost gave on this , but I decided to tryout the 1.4.1 version of DVD-Lab, this worked like a charm. It remuxed the authored mpv file and the ac3. I imported the chapter list and DVD-Lab authored the Video_TS Folder. I re-ran it through ifoedit to edit vts_sectors and it was ready to go. Used this on three dvds now to perfection. Im gonna right a better guide when I get time and use pics, but hope this helps out. Glad I could maybe help someone.
