Kwag,
I've read where you can put up to ~6 hours on one DVD. I've run into a block. I have 3 MPEG2's I want to put to DVD. I've used ImgTools successfully and I know how to convert to .m2v and .mpa in IFOEdit. How do you combine the 3 files to vobs? Do I need to demux the files again?

You don't have to demux. Once you have your new VOBs, you use VobEdit to join them, and then use IfoEdit to create new IFOs from the new joined VOBs.

That's the problem, I don't have them in vobs yet. How do you combine 3 mpgs into a full set of vobs or just one vob. That's what I'm missing.

I assume you are converting from DVD, and you have your original rips. If this is the case, follow this guide : http://ifoedit.wh.fr0zen.com/remux.html
If you only have your .m2v and audio as .mp2, then you can use DVDit or DVD WorkShop to create a DVD structure on your disk. Do this for each set of your .m2vs and .mp2s. After that, use VobEdit to join the new VOBs created by your DVD authoring software. Then run IfoEdit to recreate the IFOs, BUPs, etc.
More guides are available here: www.ifoedit.com

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm trying to covert some of my original kvcd's to dvd so I don't have the original vobs. I'll try your methods shortly. Thanks again :P

Kwag, I think I'm still not following you. To get 6 hours on a dvd do I join all the vob files from the 3 movies with VobEdit then create my mpg2 file with the KDVD template, then demux and use IFOEdit to create my new vob files and structures? Or do I encode each movies seperately first?
In otherwords, I'm trying to do the ~6 hour KDVD to DVDr procedure but I'm not clear how to proceed.

Hi Yoda,
Encode each movie separately. Just use prediction to calculate each movie to be 1/3 the DVD capacity (including audio).
Then convert each movie to VOBs and then join them. After that, reconstruct the IFOs with IfoEdit. Now you can burn it with ImgTool or other DVD burning program which can read a VIDEO_TS directory file structure.

Hi there,
I authored a menu with 2 movies (KDVD ) by using DVD Workshop, the output directory has VIDEO_TS.IFO, VIDEO_TS.VOB (The menu page which I want to keep), VTS_01_0.IFO, VTS_02_0.IFO (of course and those 2 movies VTS_01_x.VOB and VTS_02_x.VOB).
OK, I want to keep the menu and replace the 2nd movie with another movie (with 2 switchable subtitles inside) in VOBs with IFO authored by IFO Edit. In other words, I want to replace the "OLD" VTS_02_x.VOB with a "NEW" set of VTS_02_x.VOB, I tried to just replace it and keep the Original VTS_02_0.IFO, it failed to link to the NEW VTS_02_x.VOB, I don't know what should I do with the "OLD" and "NEW" VTS_02_0.IFO? I tried to use IFO Update to update it, it says the new IFO has a different movie length from the old one. Does it have to be the same length if I want to update the IFO? Or simply, is it possible to replace the OLD VTS_02_x.VOB with a NEW ones (keep the original self authored menu)?

Kwag or anyone.
Just making sure I'm doing this right. Mpeg2 requires the audio to be set to 48000 instead of 44100 to be fully compliant?

MPEG-2 doesn't require this, but if you want your files DVD-compliant then it has to be 48000khz.

Thanks JellyGoose, that's what I thought.

I also found this useful from urban tech.

I came across this method a while ago, you may want to give it a try
Code:
Converting SVCD to DVD-R with IFOEDIT 0.95
Useing IFOEDIT 0.95 To Convert SVCD to DVD-R
Ifoedit can convert standard SVCD from it's native 480x480 resolution and 44100 audio sampleing rate without any other programs. Ifoedit apparently makes no checks for DVD compliance and will automatically correct the headers for proper aspect ratio display and will author directly from the 44100 audio stream without re-sampleing. This example is for one SVCD but multipile SVCD's could be joined into one large MPEG file,I would recommend DV Tool for the joining.
1.) Copy your SVCD .mpg to your HD.
2.) Demux into elementary .m2v and .mp2 streams. You could use Tmpeg for this.
3.) Rename the .mp2 stream to .mpa
3.) Start Ifoedit 0.95 and select DVD Author,then Author new DVD.
4.) Load the demuxed .m2v file into the video box.
5.) Load the demuxed .mpa file into the audio box.
6.) In the Output Stream Destination navigate to a VIDEO_TS directory on your HD.
7.) Click O.K. and Ifoedit will create the requiered ifo and vob files in your VIDEO_TS directory.
You can then burn to DVD-R with your favorite burning program. It will play in correct aspect ratio and the 44100 audio will play normally.
Most DVD players support Mpeg audio and should have no problem playing 44100 audio.
It's always best to make a test on DVD-RW to be certain your DVD player will support this xDVD.
This is a copy/paste of the original post but I cant remember where I saw it now, I have tested it to the point of making an image and watching it with powerdvd and it worked but I never burned it to dvd.
With this method you will need to join your mpeg files if you have more than one.

I am confused why you guys/gals are going through all this trouble. If you have three movies you want to put on a DVD just use a DVD authoring program like Kwag said. Take your three VCD, SVCD, or MPEG-2 files and add them to the authoring program. You will then have a menu that shows your three movies. In DVD Workshop or MovieFactory 2 you have a choice of either having it stop at the end of each movie or playing right through to the next like one long movie. So there would be no need to create new VOB's or IFO's. The authoring program will do this automatically for you. I usually stick 2 full length Avisynth-Kwag template movies on one DVD and have not had any audio sync issues or picture freezes. People think they are watching the original DVD-9 format DVD. All hail King Kwag!!!

Hi Digitalize,
Have you used any mpeg1 files with a dvd authoring software?
and if so where they a compliant dvd gop or the 24 gop we are presently using.
Just curious

I only tried one MPEG-1. It seems to work as long as you have the audio at 48khz.
