actually, i did read your email. and from what i understood, you only

program that will "split" a title between two dvd-r discs, however, more
often than not, the main title doesn't take up more than 1 dvd-r. so
that is why i pointed to you dvdbackup which can backup just the main
title if you select it on the command line. i also think you should
look at dvd9to5.pl and the reason i pointed you there is that it rips
only the main title by default and since it's a perl script, you can
edit the script (if you are familiar with scripts) and remove the
auto-calculation for tcrequant and just set it to 1 (which means that no
requant will be done). you can also check out gopchop at
http://gopchop.org/ to see if that might help you, once you've ripped
the vobs from the disc with another program. if you have never used
dvd::rip, you may want to look into it as their discussion boards have
included some talk about including dvd9to5.pl and dvd::rip already does
disc splitting for vcd and svcd.

aside, why do you want to copy it to two dvd-r instead of a dvd+r dual
layer?


Some people don't have dual layer dvd writers.

The Windows world has a program called DVD Fab (Platinum) that will
split a DVD9 into two DVD5 files, ready to burn to two DVDs. It's
quite useful actually. I haven't found a Linux equivalent yet.
