    I searched the forums, but didn't find anything on this (maybe I'm using the wrong search terms), so please excuse me if it's already been asked and answered.

    I have a two-sided DVD I'm trying to back up. I ripped it using DVD Decrypter and created the VOB, IFO, BUP files for each side in 2 different folders, which together equal approx. 8.52 GBs. While I have backed-up other discs (one-sided) to a 4.7 DVD-R, I have never done it from a two-sided one.

    I don't understand how to get both sides into InstantCopy since each folder has files with same name (i.e., VIDEO_TS.IFO, VTS_01_0.IFO, etc.). Is there a way to do this, or do I have to put each side on its own DVD disc?

    Thank You.

    use dvd-shrink re-author function

    click on open files, drag movie 1 over, let it do its thing
    click on dvd browser and drag second movie over to re-author window
    click on backup

    Use a program called DVDshrink, it's free and it does what it says on the tin.

    Thats going to be alot of compression.
    Keep it on two disks. 50% or higher I have problems
    with the video quality.

    Just a thought
