I have NERO exress 6. Can i do what follows, or is there another nero product that would work better?
I recently converted some old VHS to DVD using a sony recorder.
Each VHS tape was burned on to a separate DVD, many of the recordings are very short.
What i would like to do is combine these recordings onto a lesser number of DVD's.

I notice that each one of the dvd's has two folders...each contains a number of sub files...

example of 1 disk:

VIDEO_RM
sonata.ifo
sonata_debug.ifo
video_rm.ifo
video_rm.bup
video_rm.dat

and

VIDEO_TS
video_ts.ifo
video_ts.bup
video_ts.vob
VTS_01_0.bup
VTS_01_0.ifo

VTS_01_1.vob
VTS_01_2.vob
VTS_01_3.vob
VTS_01_4.vob
VTS_01_5.vob


What files do i need to put on the new dvd, and what needs to be on the new dvd to get it to play in a dvd player?
Thanks for any replies and direction.

In the 'VIDEO_TS' folder, the files beginning 'VTS_01' indicate that they are all associated with 'Title 1'.


Quote:
VTS_01_1.vob
VTS_01_2.vob
VTS_01_3.vob
VTS_01_4.vob
VTS_01_5.vob
Using 'Nero Vision' (not Nero Express) these files can be loaded into the compilation window.
If space on the disk permits, the next folder can be opened and the VOB files loaded.
Each set of VOB files is treated as a separate 'Title' and is assigned an entry on the DVD menu (if you elect to create one).

I mention space requirements, because in general a VOB file on a commercial movie disk is around 1 GB in size and a standard blank DVD is less than 5GB - therefor the more files added - the lower the output quality.
