    1) Copy all the files of each mini-dvd to the harddisk, each under a separate folder (e.g. movie 1, movie 2)

    2) Run Shrink, choose 'reauthor', then go highlight the video_ts folder of each movie, and add the various 'titles' to the compilation window. You can then adjust the 'compression settings' if necesary.

    3) When done, burn the compilation with e.g. Nero.

    Happy dvd authoring!

    What if I want to add menus and chapters and stuf like that?
    I'm looking to compile a bunch of my son's mini DVD's to a single 4.7 DVD, with a chapter select menu, etc...
    What software is good for that?
    Thanks...

    Nero Vision Express can do that, but you need to convert the minidvds into certain popular video formats first (e.g. mpeg, avi).

    Can Nero Convert the formats, or do I need to use something else such as DVD Shrink?
    I'll try when I get home tonight...
    My wife is looking forward to distributing these DVD's for Christmas...
