Making a Compilation of DVD Clips

[adamknight79]

What I am trying to do is take clips for example a 30 second clip of Dumb and Dumber. What I am wanting is to compile a dvd of my favorite movie clips. I know that I can use dvdshrink for this but the problem I am having is the files are way to big. A minute clip taken from the movie can run as much as 80 mb. At this rate my dvd won't hold near as much as I would like it. Does anyone have a suggestion or maybe know of some other software I could try.
Thanks in advance for your help.

80 MB per minute? Exactly, how many clips are you talking about here? Looks like you'll be be using DVD Shrink's re-author mode so each clip will be in it's own titleset and with a different VMG title. The max titles a DVD can hold, according to DVD specs, is 99.

Now, I heard this from a credible source that DVD Shrink can ONLY re-author up to 48 Titles max? After that, there might be errors. I think that 48 is right but it's still nowhere near 99 Titles max. I haven't tested this as I don't have 100 titles to work with nor would I be in a situation that calls for it.

So if at 80 MB per Title and there are 48 Titlesets...

80,000,000 * 48 = 3,840,000,000 or 3.84 GB. Of course, you need to make also room for the IFOs but at the end, you'll still be within a blank 4.7 GB range.

Even though, you go beyond 4.7 GB when dragging in Re-author mode, you can still shrink it down a bit as 80% and up for transcoding compression is still good for the eyes.
