I have joined two sets of vobs and the total size is 8.4gigs .When i try to shrink it in dvd shrink it only reduces it to approx 6.5 gigs
Tried using DVD2ONE but it throws up an error at 49% .Says something about file id not correct

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Cheers

i figured it out with the help of a previous post
I noticed i had subtitles in which i didnt need so i folllwed step 10 from below.Thanks to DrChips

1 - create a directory (dir 1) and copy JUST the main VOBs (e.g. VTS_01_x.VOB etc) into dir 1
2 - if the VOBs are NOT in the form VTS_01_x.VOB rename them appropriately.
3 - run IFOEdit
4 - Create IFOs
5 - browse to dir 1 and select VTS_01_1.VOB, click OK
6 - wait while it processes.
7 - the top pane will show TWO IFO files, highlight the one entitled VTS_01_1.VOB
8 - the bottom pane will show the VTS overview.
9 - under the Title Set (Movie) attributes you will see a video entry AND one or more audio entries (and maybe some subtitle entries)
10 - IF there is ONLY ONE audio entry AND there are NO subtitle entries then goto step 16
11 - create a directory (dir 2)
12 - click VOB Extras, make sure ONLY the following are selected:
Strip Streams
Correct VOB Unit.....
Correct original IFOs
Create new IFO files....
Remove P-UOps
Remove Macrovision
Adjust VOB-Unit pointers
Adjust audio/subp point
VOB Size == 1 GIG
13 - browse the destination to dir 2, click OK
14 - tick the FIRST audio ONLY, the rest are cleared, click Strip it
15 - wait while it processes, then click OK
16 - in the top pane, highlight the BOTTOM entry
17 - click Get VTS sectors, click through until done
18 - close IFOEdit
