I gathered from your post, that I quoted, that you recommend using PgcEdit. However, when I open up the program it looks like someone took every icon they could find and threw it onto one page. Maybe you could point me in a better direction for receiving help, the only guide I could find was strictly for removing menu buttons/commands and not for checking and fixing errors like you have talked about. I have been able to back up a few movies but am trying to learn more about the more detailed programs (DVDRebuilder, PgcEdit, etc.) aside from straight ripping, transcoding, then burning.
Some of the guides are outdated.
First make sure you install all of the plugins. There is a download for all of them on the home page.
You can click on the DVD tab and select to delete uncalled pgc's.
You can click on the plugins tab and check for incorrect time maps. If any are found, they will be corrected when you save the DVD. You can right click on the PGC's you don't want and select to kill playback. When you use the kill playback function, after you save and exit, you must run the files through FixVTS.
Clicking on the info tab can be very useful.
Learning how to use the trace mode for removing unwanted material is important.
This is not an easy tool to learn but after a while you'll discover the how powerful this program is.
Take the time to check all the guides on PgcEdit's homepage.

Thank you for your help. I know that some of these tools have a lot of potential, its just that sometimes when you open them up, it can be a bit very overwhelming. I am glad to have you guys to turn to when help is needed.
Almost forgot, do you use IFOEdit, as well. The reason I ask is that on the download page it says that it does not work well with WinXP. Just wanted to know before installing and having my system go BOOM.
Yes it can be overwhelming. Take your time. Practice. Try different things.
For example:
You don't want to sit through 10 minutes of trailers before you get to the menu or the movie. With PgcEdit you can change that.
Or maybe you have a movie that doesn't return to the menu when finished. You can correct that. It really is unbelievable the amount of things this program can do.
