So has anyone done it yet? I tried it again after successfully doing goodfellas but, this is another one of those discs that I need to have my hand held to combine.
If you did do it, how is the final version as far as picture quality? Is the compression noticeable on such a long film? The PQ on the 2 disc set is ok at best and nothing of reference quality so, maybe it won't look so bad.
Any one do it yet?

It comes from the studios as a 2 disc set and I hate having to get up and change discs but, if the quality of the combined/compressed copy looks poor I would have no choice.
I tried combining them myself but, I was unable to do so succesfully. I even followed my own notes regarding goodfellas but, I was unable to successfully combine both discs into a single burnable folder.
If you feel like posting a step by step, i would love to try it but, continuing to fail is very frustrating and I don't even know where I am going wrong.
At least you got it to work and it looks good so theres hope!

To combine them is very simple (by the way, i have it on a single DVD?? the second DVD is extras?|?)
Create two folders.
Rip each one seperately into the two folders
Open TMPGEnc and select the vob's in order from the first folder
Then select the vob's in order from the second folder following on from the first
Then click begin output
You will need to shrink (by alot) with a compression tool of your choice

Guys, the 2 disc set DOES NOT have extras on the second disc, it has the second half of the movie on the second disc.
I will look to see if i can find a one disc version of the disc.

I have searched everywhere and every site I see only sells a 2 disc set with the entire movie split over 2 Discs. NOT a single disc for the feature and the second for the supplemental material.
Please direct me to where anyone has anything other than what i have.

hi oriphus - I tried that just a few days ago, I still have the entire sides on my harddrive, havent had time to burn each. I tried using TMPGEnc, using the demo.. I tried to put the last VOB of the first part. It gave me an error, saying it wasn't able to enitiate decoder, I read somewhere that you might have to use some other program since there is some type of different ending, where it tells you to add the second disc, but I haven't tried, and it seemed complicated, just wondering if you had encountered the same problem.
the movie I got is with both parts split into 2 dvds.
thanks

No, I havent had that problem. TMPGEnc DVD Author should take any VOB's you want, leave all other files alone, and create a menu and file structure for them to be played onyour DVD player. Try renaming the VOB's in the second folder to coincide with those in the first. IE: First folder:
VTS_01_1.VOB
VTS_01_2.VOB
VTS_01_3.VOB
VTS_01_4.VOB
The second folder will have the same nubmers probaly, rename them to:
VTS_01_5.VOB
VTS_01_6.VOB
VTS_01_7.VOB
VTS_01_8.VOB
And this may solve your problem.

Orpheus: Thank you for your advice but, if you have a single disc then why did you need to do what you described in order to put it on one disc? The process you described was for 2 disc owners to combine into a single disc, not for single disc owners.
My point is that you have not done this yourself with this particular disc, you are speculating that it can be done because you have done it with other discs.
Well, i was able to combine goodfellas and i am unable to combine GONY. So either do it and tell us how exactly or please stop assuming that all discs will respond identically.
Herbsman, email me about this one, I may take you up on your offer.

Ericbee, ur an idiot. You won't get help on this forum with that kind of attitude. I guarantee i could get your two disc version onto one disc. There are no encryptions on the VOB's or anything. If you have a raw VOB file, you can combine it in TMPGEnc DVD Author.

i tried that again... doing what oriphus said...
I still cant get the last VOB file from the 1st set of vobs(1 disc) to be set into the program. I am able to put in the disc 2 VOB files, but not the ending part of the first disc. Seems wierd... then i was thinking of just doing each seperatly, cause I was thinking of a loss of quality, but if anyone knows what the heck is going on....help a brotha out!!
thanks

Orphius: Who the F are you calling an idiot?
Did I not thank you for your help? It's you with the attitude and i don't give a rats ass if you are a senior member or not.
I am certain you can get our 2 version disc onto one disc or I can assure you noone would even be replying to your posts. If you are here to help then help, insulting me isn't the answer my friend. In the time you took to post your crap you could have just as easily posted a step by step for those of us who need help.
I stated that since you have a different region disc that you have not done this specific disc yourself and you have not. Inever made any mention of encriptions on the VOB's, you did. I am certain this disc is no different than any other but, these discs pose a problem for many of us, me included.
So if you would like to help please do and never again come at me with an unwarranted attitude, I don't like it very much at all especially when i have done nothing but thank you for your time and attention to my initial question.

the error message is when i put the last VOB file from the first disc. it says.. "unable to enitiate decoder". It also says it for the last VOB for the 2nd disc as well. So I know its not the ripping process I used. Should i use DVD2One first to compress both of the movies? and then use the program?... I am going to try that later on...but maybe that could work.

Hmmm...If you use DVD2One first to compress, you really need to calculate the rate of compression, ie: select Movie Only mode and set the output size to 2150MB. Then try combining. Read through the Squeezing Goodfellas to one disc thread, it might offer yousome additional help.
As for you ericbee:

Seems to me like you were having a go at me. If you werent, try re-thinking what you were trying to say and then re-word it so i can follow you wihtout taking offence.

The problem you are encountering with joining the VOB's from the two discs is they are bot VOB id 1 and the end of Gof NY side 1 looks for VOB id 2. Rename all the movie VOB's to VTS_1_001 thru VTS_1_010. in a folder of their own. Then use VOBEdit to join clips into another new folder. You should end up with 9 VOB files. Use IFOEdit to create IFO files and then run through DVD2One. DVD2One will stop around the 50% mark but it will have done the entire movie. On my copy of the full movie on one disk, the movie hangs where the VOB files are joined together on my sony player, but it plays fine on my apex. There is a 2 second blank screen for the scene change between the merged VOB sets.

I had no trouble joining the 2 parts using the guide here
http://ifoedit.wh.fr0zen.com/joinclip.html
However, I did it a little differently. I used DVD2One to compress both parts to 2.2 gbs then I combined them. One thing that they left out of this guide is that after you create new ifo files with IFOEdit, you need to open them and specify the languge of the audio and subpicture since it is unspecified
