How Can I Back Up More Than One DVD To A New Disc?

I really hate it when companies bring out series of DVDs with about 50 minutes of footage on each disc so that they take up four times the amount of room that they need to.

It's OK for people who live in mansions but I just do not have the space - especially if I'm making back-ups.

Is there any way I can take two, three or four original discs and burn them onto one new one?

I use Shrink already which is why I thought I'd start here. Will Shrink do it, and if so, how?

If not, does anyone know what will?

Thanks,

Brian

You make multiple folders in your hard drive, then use shrink to
to copy them into individual folders. Once you get the last disk
copied go back and open files for each folder they will now be
back in shrink ready for burning. Also works for two sided discs.
Happy Burning!

You'll need to use the re-author function.
Just open and add titles from folder, and drag and drop the individual discs to the new compilation on the left hand side.
