How
to add multiple movies / titles to one DVD using DVD Shrink
This guide will help you create a disc
that will contain titles from different DVDs. You can follow
this guide to copy 2 movies into a simple DVD, like the example
here, or add trailers, extras, episodes from different discs
to one.
Before you start you should rip all the contents of the DVDs
you want to use into your hard disk. You can find a guide for
that here.
In this guide we are going to use
the "Re-author" feature of DVD Shrink. So open DVD
Shrink and click the Re-author button.
In your right you are going to see the DVD Browser.
We are going to find and select the DVD files we want to use.
Double-click and open your hard disk, then locate the folder
that you have the DVD files in and open that too.
Here you can see the contents of the DVD. You can
select any title you want and drag-and-drop it to the Re-authored
DVD window in your left. DVD Shrink will analyse it. After you
are finished with the first disc do the same for the other ones
until you have moved all the titles you want in the DVD that
you are going to author.
Now it's time for some editing. Open the Compression settings
tab and then select the first title (1). Remove any unwanted
audio and subtitles (2) - I suggest you remove all, except one
audio tracks if you are adding two movies in one DVD as the
quality is going to be really bad if you keep them all. Also
click Start-End (3) so that you can remove the credits, see
below for details.
This is only required if you are adding to movies
into 1 disc in order to improve quality. Click the forward button
(1) to remove any introduction screens and the backwards button
(2) to remove all the credits and click OK.
After you're done click the Backup button.
Here select the usual DVD Shrink settings. (1)
The destination - I selected Hard disk folder, remember that
you should have Nero installed in order to use burning or image
creation. (2) The folder that you put the files into and (3)
to create the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders. Then click the
Backup options tab.
Make sure you select deep analysis if you have
added two movies into a single disc in order to improve quality.
Make sure all the settings are correct, click OK and you're
done!
