I have a sony handycam using mini dvds. I am using one minidisc per period for a basketball game. I have a .ifo, .bup, and a .vob file per minidisc. If I just burn one period onto a regular dvd, it plays fine on standalone dvd players. Here's the problem. They are all named the same thing so I can not bring all four mini discs to the same folder on my hard drive. I was wondering if I can rename the .vob, .ifo, and .bup files and somehow edit the .ifo to reflect the renaming of the files. Space is not an issue as I am not using all of each minidisc. I have XP and I noticed that IFO edit is not supposed to work well on XP even if this would solve my problem. The other alternative I was wondering is if I can rename each .vob file to reflect each period of the ballgame and then bring them into a program like dvdshrink to make them into one movie. If I can do this, will the program create whatever accessory files are required to ensure the movie will play on stand alone dvd players.

Thanks for any help on this.

how about you try this:

1.create 4 folders on your hard drive
2.rename those folders something like :A/B/C/D
3.dump each of your 4 discs into one of the letter, so that disc 1=A
2=B
3=C
4=D

NOW the first thing you need to do is convert your file from each folder to that of mpeg2.

once you have accomplished that just open shrink select reauthor, and then add each converted file in any order you want.You can however use recode and merge all the files together after you added them or even go as far as using TMPGEnc dvd author , add each file separately, then when you add the menu make it so that when the disc loads it will go straight to the menu and you can pick your chapters.

is something along the lines that you are after
