How to
make a movie copy?
Step 1 - Copy the movie to your
harddisk
Most DVD's are encrypted and need to be decrypted before you can
process them with DVD2oneX. Since decrypting DVD's can be against the
law in your country, this part is not included in DVD2oneX. You will
have to search the internet to find a program that can do this job.
- Although DVD2oneX should also work with files that are
preprocessed (ifo mode), it is strongly recommended to use file mode.
- Make sure all options are disabled, so for instance do not enable
Multi Angle Processing!
- Do not merge the vob files to one big file, keep them separate.
Step 2 - Movie only copy
-Select Movie only from the copy mode popup button.
-Select the source directory. If you select a valid (VIDEO_TS) source
directory the titlelist will show the available titles and a drawer
will
open showing the available audio tracks, subtitles and angles.

In the titlelist select the title that contains the main feature
(usually the one with the most chapters).
-Select the audio- and subtitle-tracks you want to include in your
copy by checking the checkbox. It is recommended to include only those
audio tracks you really need. This saves additional space for the video
stream.
Also select the angle you want to keep. Usually the first one is the
one you want. This feature is mostly used by studio's to display texts
and credits in different languages according to match the audio
language
you have chosen. For instance on Star Wars it is used for the 3D
scrolling intro text.

You can set the default audio- and subtitle-track by double clicking on
it. After you have done this a small arrow sign will appear in the
first
column of the list. To deselect just double click on the selected track
again.
-Select the angle you want to keep. Usually the first one is the one
you want. This feature is mostly used by studio's to display texts and
credits in different languages according to match the audio language
you
have chosen. For instance on Star Wars it is used for the 3D scrolling
intro text.
-Select the wanted compression Ratio.
If MKISOFS is installed you can select the create image checkbox. In
this case a DVD-disk image is created after the processing is done.

-Then click the Start button and a drawer will open to select the
destination directory. DVD2oneX will automatically create a VIDEO_TS
and
AUDIO_TS directory at the chosen directory.
Press select and processing begins.
Step 3 - Select the cells you
want to keep
By selecting the Cell selection tab on the selections drawer the list
with
available cells becomes visable. Now you can select the cells you want
to keep in your movie. With the selection popup at the bottom of the
drawer you can change between Cell, Chapter or Layer selection. Using
the buttons All and None you can quickle select or deselect all cells.
By default all cells are
selected (full movie).

With cell selection you can also create a "SPLIT DISK"
To do so, first, choose Layer from the popup menu and select (check)
the first layer. Now process (press Start) your movie and call this
output ie DISK1. When finished select select (check) the second layer.
Process the movie again and call this output ie DISK2. Now
burn the results (DISK1 and DISK2) to two disks and you have a splited
disk (see step 4).
Step 4 - Burn the movie
If create image was selected a DVD_TITLE.img file is found at the
destination directory. This image can be easily burned using the Apple
Disk Copy tool.
Follow these instructions to burn a disk image file to a DVD-R
disc.
1. Open Disk Copy (/Applications/Utilities).
2. Choose File > Burn Image. Note: Don't open the disk image
file before choosing this command.
3. A navigation dialog box appears. Locate and select the disk image
file.
4. Click Burn.
5. When prompted, insert a blank disc into the disc drive.
6. Click Burn.
Depending how the After Burning option is configured, the disc will
eject or appear on the desktop when the disc is successfully completed.
If MKISOFS is not installed, DVD2oneX does always deliver DVD compliant
files. This means that you can burn the movie with any DVD recording
software. The DVD compliant files can be found in the VIDEO_TS
directory
at the destination directory.
- Make sure that the files are in a VIDEO_TS directory.
- Make sure that the disk name, directory name and file names are
in CAPITALS.
- Add an empty AUDIO_TS directory for more settop DVD player
compatibility.
