This worked for me and is fairly simple. Rip both disks into separate folders. Then take only the Movie VOB files and combine them into a separte folder leave the VOB's from Disk 1 alone rename the VOB's from disk 2, starting by renaming the first one to VTS_01_06 and so on. Use IFO Edit to create new ifo files. Make sure to get vts sectors etc. Then I used DVD2One, movie only 4472Mb size. It burned and plays fine.

You will probably find it will work without renaming teh VOB's if you use TMPGEnc DVD Author, but there is no harm done by renaming.

For the DVD2One solution: is the compression rate constant or variable?

I am having problems combining 2 discs onto 1. I have tried it a couple of ways and cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.
I ripped both discs to their own directories with Decrypter. I renamed the VOB files for disc 2 so they would fall in numerical sequence with the files from disc one and copied them all to a new directory. I then used Vobedit and the files were recreated in yet another directory. The "slack" on the last VOB file of disc 1 was taken up with the vobs of disc 2. I then used IFOEdit and video_ts.bup, video_ts.ifo, vts_01_0.bup and vts_01_0.ifo were created. The movie vobs are numbered in the vts_07_1 to vts_07_12 range, so I renamed vts_01_0.bup and vts_01_0.ifo to the _07_ series.
I tried to look at the compilation using WInDVD. When I pressed play, nothing showed and WinDVD indicated "stop". No error message.
I tried TMPGE, using the website guide.When I tried to "add DVD video", no titles appear in the pop up window. I then tried to open the individual disc directories that were created when I decrypted the discs. I got an error message that said "...video_ts.ifo can not be opened".
Can someone advise what step I have left out?

I used Clad XP in ifo parsing mode to rip. Then renamed the VOB files. You got it right but you have to name the files starting with 1 NOT 7 (e.g. VTS_01_x NOT VTS_07_x). Then run IFOEdit and create the .ifo and .bup files. Then I used DVD2One using constant ratio compression. Then put the files into a VIDEO_TS folder and burn. I have done this in Nero 5.5 and 6 successfully.

You are both right to a certain extent. however, it can be done in TMPGEnc DVD Author without any changing of names or using IFO Edit. Simply load the files into it for the first DVD. Then do the same for the second DVD. You can create a menu to say Disc 1 Disc 2 on start up.

After renumbering the vob movie files to the vts_01_x format, I ran Ifoedit again to generate the bup and ifo files. My plan was to run it through DVDshrink to get to size for one disk but it would error out 2/3 the way through.
I am running it through TMPGE to see if, by chance, there was a format error of some type. Don't know for certain. At least TMPGE accepted the files after they were renumbered. You were right on the mark about that point, Zerxez.

Davidb:
I actually did this and it worked out fine. One thing I did differently is I used vobedit to change the VOB IDs on the second set. (Note this is different than just changing the file name). If you try to combine both sets without doing this you will get duplicate VOB IDs. What problems this may cause are unknown. Once the VOB IDs are changed you may rename the second set to match the first and you can use IFOEdit to create a new set of IFO files. I use DVD2One to compress the final result. There is a glitch at the point where the two disks were merged but just ignore it. DVD2One filters it out.
The method pointed out by Oriphus sounds easier though.

I suppose it comes down to using what you are happy with and is proven to work for yourself. :D

Well, I decided to try this again from scratch. After re-ripping each disc into their own directory, I loaded them into TMPGE (yes, the authoring version)In my first attempt, the result had disc 2 in front of disk 1. Can't explain why. So I trashed the result and tried again and it worked. I tried to load the result into DVDShrink, but got an VOB error message. Again, I don't know why. Instead, I used DVD2One to compress it.
