i went through these steps:
Launch Smartripper, you should see a box open on the left of your screen, and then the main Smartripper screen. Click on the ?Movie? Button. In the centre of the screen, a box marked ?Chapters? each box has a tick in it, this means the Chapter has been selected to be ripped, but, we are only ripping the first half remember, so, scroll down, and check the no of Chapters. Un check the 2nd half (11 to 18 in our example).
At the bottom of the screen you will see a box marked ?Target?. This is where we are going to copy the ripped files to. Click on the ?Explorer? type icon, and select F:\disc1 and save as option vts_01
Just to be on the safe side, check Stream Processing Tab. The ?Enable Stream Processing? Box MUST NOT BE CHECKED.
After that, hit Start, and it should rip the first half of the movie.
When it?s finished, go into the disc1 directory, you should have 3 VOB files vts_01_1 vts_01_2 vts_02_2 and a vts_01_0.ifo (there may be a *.txt file as well but that doesn?t matter)
Open Ifoedit, click on ?Open? bottom left of the screen, open the vts_01_0.ifo file in the ?disc1? directory.
At the top of the screen click on ?VOB extras>create new Ifos
This brings up the VOB extras Options.
The following options should be checked :-
Correct Vob-Unit (Navigation Pack)?..
Correct IFO tables with new VOB??..
Create new VIDEO_TS.IFO & VTS_01_0.IFO
Remove P-Uops
Remove Macrovision
Adjust Vob-Unit Pointers
Adjust Audio/Subp point
Then, under the File/Directory Paths, make ?Destination directory? F:\disc1 new ifo
Then Click OK.
Ifoedit then starts to analyse your files, and write 4 new files into ?disc 1 new ifos? directory. This might take 15-20 minutes.
When complete, shut down Ifoedit and go into Windows Explorer, and check to see that the 4 new files have bee written. These should be :-
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VIDEO_TS.IFO
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_0.IFO
Now, still in Explorer, got directory disc 1, and delete ALL files EXCEPT *.VOB files. Then copy across from disc 1 new ifos to disc 1 the 4 new files.
Nearly there now.
Re open Ifoedit, and open disc 1 directory, file :- VTS_01_0.IFO.
At the bottom of the screen click on ?Get VTS sectors?.
Click OK every time Ifoedit prompts you, until complete.
Shutdown Ifoedit.
That?s it. You have now have a VOB set that will be small enough to burn and play in any settop box.
For the second half of the movie, just ?uncheck the chapters 1-9 (or whatever) and place you file sin the disc 2 sections (just so you don?t muddle them up.
BUT THE PROBLEM IS WHEN I GO TO CREATE THE NEW IFO FOR THE 2ND DISC IT SAYS NO NAVIGATION-PACK FOUND IN VOB FILES. LOOKS LIKE YOUR DEALING WITH INVALID VOB FILES. WHAT IS WRONG AND WHAT DO I DO TO FIX IT?
