Hiya a1bb1a,
I assume you want just the film, no extras, one audio track & no subtitles in the best possible quality, on a DVD that will autorun on a standalone player....
You will need the following:
Ripping: SmartRipper
Pre-processing: IFOEdit
Compression: DVD2One
Burning: Use your favourite (mine is Prassi PrimoDVD, the best I have tried, brill for DVD)
LOTS of disk space: minimum is set by the film you are ripping, maximum will not exceed 28.5 GB (3 times the capacity of a DVD-9 disk), worst case I have seen has been 19 GB (7.5 first rip, 6.5 second stage, 4.4 final stage) - NOTE: NTFS is RECOMMENDED.
Basic instructions:
1 - create the following directories:
dir1
dir2
dir3
2 - rip vobs only into dir1
3 - if vobs are NOT in the form VTS_01_x.VOB, then rename them (MUST be _01_ )
4 - use IFOEdit, "Create IFOs", select first vob in set (in dir1) & wait till done (takes some time, be patient)
5 - in the top half of the window, highlight the VTS_01_1.IFO entry
6 - in the bottom half of the window you will see the structure of the film (video, audio & subtitles followed by the program chain data)
7 - "VOB extras", you need the following selected:
strip streams
correct vob-unit
correct original IFO files
create new IFO files
remove P-UOps
remove macrovision
adjust vob-unit pointers
adjust audio/subp point
ALL OTHERS UN-SELECTED
set VOB size == 1GB
set destination directory to dir2, "OK".
8 - keep audio 1, clear everything else, "strip it", wait till done.
9 - "Get VTS sectors", close IFOEdit.
9 - if the result is small enough to go on a DVD, then rename dir2 to VIDEO_TS, then test on pc & burn.
10 - use DVD2One, source is dir2, destination is dir3, wait till done, close DVD2One
11 - rename dir 3 to VIDEO_TS, then test on pc & burn.
There are LOTS of other ways to achieve the same result (some of the one-click-tools for example) but this method gives a basic grounding & good results (compare with a film done via your method).
have Fun...
Life is just more of the same:
