PgcEdit ver 8.0 (a DVD IFO editor) *** UPDATE *** 23 January
Nah - it looks like it really can't pass a CLI to test (although I'm sure mkisofs can - just look at its help screen - there's a million parameters for it!)

The problem is not with mkisofs. To testburn, you have to pass the info to DVDDecrypter. And there is no TEST parameter in the command line of DVDDecrypter.
Anyway, you can ask LIGHTNING UK! to add it to DVDDecrypter. If it is possible, I will add the option in the PgcEdit's GUI.
@blutach I took a long look at the docs for Pgcedit and it has in there that it will allow going from movie to movie on a DVD burned by shrink that has multiple movies on it. Looks like this'll work and it's, oooooooooo I like this word, ffffffrrrreeeeeeeeeeeee
I'll give it a shot after I get my taxes done today, or tomorrow after I get over the shock.
It's April 15th already....time flies when your having fun.
I have asked LIGHTNING UK! to add a TEST option in the command line of DVDD, but he explained that it is not possible to launch a test followed by a burn, even from the GUI. So, this feature will probably never be implemented in PgcEdit.

@ blutach donating for something that is ffffffrrrreeeeeeeeeeeee! and works and will be used has been no problem with me. Looks like the learning curve for it is gonna be a little tuff for a noob but I'm gonna give it a shot
It does take a bit, but start with learning the VM commands. You will find that they are a very simple computer program, with some stupidities thrown it (like you can't jump from VTS to VTS without going through VMG). Use the trace function in step mode to see what is going on in your DVD.
With experience, you will use its powerful features like blanking out whole titlesets (goodbye extras for good) and hiding menu buttons and basically making your DVD do what you want it to.
Any help needed, and the folk over at D9, where r0lZ hang out will help. Join up, there's a 5 day waiting period before posting. Otherwise, you can ask me
Added a Configuration option in the virtual player setup to load the PGN (Program number) instead of the PTTN (Chapter number) in SPRM 7. Many software and hardware players are not standard compliant on this point.
Added Export and Import options to save and load the color lookup table of the current PGC in the PGC Editor. File format: raw YCrCb color table (64 bytes, with leading 0 before each color) or RGB colors in ASCII format.
The import function can also import the colors from a Muxman project, or from a VTS IFO file (the colormap of the first PGC is used).
Added an option to display the popup menus when the right mouse button is released instead of pushed. This option is not recommended, though.
Added an option to store the PgcEdit_backup in the root folder of the DVD instead of in the VIDEO_TS folder. Useful to launch programs that doesn't work if there are illegal files in VIDEO_TS (like WinDVD).
Added File->Incremental Backup. Renames the current PgcEdit_backup folder (adds the modification time and date), and creates a new PgcEdit_backup.
A warning is issued when entering the menu buttons viewer if several sets of menu buttons are found in a cell. Currently, PgcEdit handles only the first set. A new option to optionally scan for multiple sets of BOVs has also been added in the 'Scan for BOVs' dialog, and the scanning for sets of buttons is optimized for speed.
Multiple errors messages when parsing the VOBs for menu buttons are now suppressed. Take care: one error message means that the whole VOB is not correctly parsed!
When saving buttons or BOVs, the original highlight status is left unchanged so that the animated highlights (for example, in Spiderman) will now still be animated.
File->Delete Backup(s) is able to delete the backups created by PgcEdit, VobBlanker, MenuShrink and Windows (Copy of ...), including incremental backups. TitleSetBlanker backups are not supported anymore.
Burn DVD: Excludes the backups PgcEdit_backup*, VobBlanker_backup*, MenuShrinkBackup* and "Copy of *" from the compilation.
Better error trapping for file I/O errors (copy, delete, rename, makedir). Now, a dialog pops up, allowing to retry the operation.
Thanks to the demo version of the Tcl DevKit, the code is now a little bit optimized, and a couple of potential bugs have been fixed.
The last VTS's title domain BOVs were never saved. Fixed.
"Can't read "::buttons::butsinfo(*,hlendtime)": no such element in array" (and selendtime) errors when a new button was created are now fixed.
The total number of menu buttons or BOVs displayed in the PGC selector label was not updated after a Remove Cell. Fixed.
Trace: When in a button command, LinkNextCell linked to the current cell, and LinkPrevCell linked to the current cell -2. Fixed.
Fixed a little bug in the "Options/Install/Associate PgcEdit with IFO (or BUP) Files", when the association was already present, but was blank.
Problem deleting the DLLs in the bin directory when uninstalling PgcEdit is now partially fixed. You will need to delete them manually.
Please note: DVD Decrypter 3.5.4.0 (as well as 3.5.3.0) has a bug when burning ISOs with some burners or medias. If you get an "Unable to recover TOC" I/O error after the completion of the burn, don't blame PgcEdit! I have tested a private beta release of DVD Decrypter, and this problem is now fixed. Please use DVDD 3.5.2.0 or wait for the next version!
