    I've been tryin gall sorts of ideas I've read and nothing has worked correctly. I am trying to put a couple of Wiggles dvd's onto one dvd+r. Both won't quite fit, so they must be compressed a bit. Can somebody who knows their stuff help me out with this?

    Hey how you doin,I know theres loads of software out there. but see if you get clonedvd. man! its awesome, one youve ripped your dvd onto hd this program does the rest, take me all in all about 1hr to copy entire disk inc menus. and as for putting more than one movie on disc well if it can put a 7.6gb movie on a 4.7gb disk it can put two on. get the program choose bottom option on main screen and you will see. if stuck get back to me .honest to god its the beez knees.but dont take my word for it!

    Hmmm, I thought I had it figured out, but maybe not. I did this successfully a few times, but now my method won't work....frustrating. Here's what I did.

    1. Took both movies and decrypted them with dvd decrypter.

    2. Took out the vob files from each and put them into a different folder, icluding renumbering the second movie files to run in order after the 1st movie....vts_01_1, VTS_01_2, VTS_01_3..etc.

    3. Run this new folder with the vob files through ifoedit05, to create new ifo files.

    4. Once that was done, I took all the files and moved them into a different folder named VIDEO_TS. I went to dvd author and ran this file through the process. Once done, the movies ran together with the proper chapters and everything.

    5. I then took this movie file and ran it through dvd shrink, since it was much larger than 4.38 gb. I did this and the result was a single file with both movies, which came in under the 4.38 gb limit.

    6. I took this and burned it with nero and it came out fine.

    Now my problem is when I do this I get hung up with errors and flaws in dvd author. Either the movies get all shuffled and mixed up or odd-ball errors pop up. What am I doing wrong? I did this 3 times with success, but now it's no dice every time.
