    Hi,

    Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, I did search but couldn't find anything resembling it.

    I ripped Love Actually using DVD-Shrink, but there appears to be what is <1 second of black screen taken up by 280MB (VIDEO_TS.VOB). I don't know loads about DVD structure, but is this some "new" copy-protection rubbish - I replace VIDEO_TS.VOB with a dummy file, and the structre of the DVD falls all over the place, with 2 minutes here, 2 minutes there, etc, etc...

    Any idea how I could get rid of this? DVD Shrink didn't compress it at all - in fact it took it about 10 minutes to process that 280MB, then about 40 to process the remaining 4GB. I looked at it in VOBEdit, and from about 1/8th the way into the file it just seems to be the same sequence repeating itself over and over...

    Any help would be much appreciated!!!

    :)
