Re-authoring

[tonay]

Howdy All

Are their any programs that allow me to burn - "main movie only" the way I can w/ Shrink when I reauthor it?

From what I can tell:
-Nero Recode will only let me block things out.
-DVD Fab will but I don't know the compression ratio and what do the sound choices mean (ie. 80h English AC-3/6 vs. 81h English AC - 3/2).

I'm still learning so don't be to hard on me.

Thanks all

is there a reason you do not wish to use shrink in this case?

Magic DVD Ripper will allow it. There is a fully working trial version.

Also curious as anonymez on the purpose.

h stands for hex, often also represented by 0x

80 is the stream ID for the 1st AC3 audio stream, in this case English 6 channel
81 the 2nd audio stream

For info on DVD structure, click on DVD Replica or "Fantastic Info" in my sig. It's quite a learning process though.

Good luck.

The main reason is because I'm just learning I want to make sure I'm using the best option/program. I honestly just learned how great movie only burns were. I wish I had known all the time instead of still framing out all the extra stuff. Having the feature load straight up on insert is great vs. all the crap that is usually there. One thing I know, there's no turning back now - I'll re-author everything I back up.

believe me what your doing is the most common, and the best system IMO.

Don't forget about the "Set Start/End Frames" feature when you "Re-author" to cut off the credits and intro, etc. - http://forum.digital-digest.com/show...threadid=47260
