Combining DTS Titles

[CMG0311]

I'm pretty new to all this DVD editing and what not. But I know how to combine 2 titles with Dolby Digital tracks using the TMPGEng program. Now I need to combine 2 DTS titles (see I want to fit all of Titanic onto a single dual layered disc and don't want the pause when my DVD player changes titles). Any help would be great!

If you are using TMPGEnc DVD Author. It does not read DTS. You will have to use something else. I would just use Shrink and have the pause.

Otherwise, you could try using a program caleld VOBEdit to combine the two parts. It has a join clip function.

Thank you so much! Now the only question I have is how do I use the IfoEdit. I thought I had it figured out but now DVDShrink doesn't seem to figure out that there's a DVD file in the folder.

Alrighty, now, I did all that and it appears to have worked. However DVDShrink still doesn't recognize that there's a DVD movie in the folder. Do I have to use a different program to record it?

This is a more updated guide with the last sentence being very important.

I did all that and it still didn't work. Are these files supposed to be in the video folder?

[CMG0311]

Alright so now I've tried puting the files into the video folder and taken them out (since in that updated guide it shows the VOB files out of the video folder... and there's no audio folder there which is kind of odd because all my DVD files have both an audio and a video folder). Anyway, still no luck. I am pretty sure I followed all the steps correctly... If someone would like to help me via AIM that'd be cool. My screen name is ClaytonMG11.

The audio_ts folder is suposed to be empty on a DVD. It is only there for DVD compliance issues and some early DVD's actually have no audo_ts folder.

The audio_ts is for the Hi Resolution DVD Audio discs.

Ohhh, good to know. And I figured it out, I had to go into the VOB Extras menu and do Create New Ifo's from in there (not sure why that worked). But thank you all so much for your help!!!

Sorry for posting older guide. 2COOL's link was the better one.

OK, now it wont record anything to the disc. When I preview the movie in DVDShrink i can see it and everything, but when I go to record it, all my DVD player says is is title one and it goes through 86 chapters really fast.

So it's a burning issue - post the log.

What do you mean post the log? (Sorry, like I said, I am pretty new at this). See it says it burned it and everything (and some how it's a minute longer than it should be) but it just doesn't play it. I am afraid to try it again due to the fact that Dual Layered discs are extremely expensive.
