    Hello, so i'm got about 5 different dvd's from fb games that i need to burn onto one disk. I would also really like to be able to do some simple editing of the files, such as start and stop points. the problem is i have no idea where to get software that will allow me to do this. I checked out the locked topic at the top of the board and still couldn't figure it out. I'm not looking to spend any money because this is probably a one time deal. Can anyone please help, thanks in advance.

    If they're already in dvd format...

    You can use reauthor mode with dvd shrink.
    It helps if you're familiar with it already.
    You may need to burn the dvds to your hard drive first.
    Next you turn on shrink and re-author mode.
    Next you browse (on the right) for which dvd titles you want to add.
    Once you added them, you're free to edit them (on the left) (it's fairly rough)
    Then you "backup" - there's probably some settings and stuff you should tweak, this is just a rough outline.

    easiest way is to put the disc in your drive and right click it, go to explore and then copy /paste the 2 folders (audio_ts/video_ts)to your hard drive.Make sure you put them in a folder and rename that folder the name of the movie.

    Then do it for the others same way.

    Do you know how to use shrinkdvd????????

    There's interactive guides on dvdshrink.info (click on guides) - one is specifically for compiling titles from 2 or more dvds, you might also want to check out the re-author guide to get more acquainted with reauthor mode, and the intermediate guide which should show you how to crop the titles (snip out the part you want.)
