how to author DVD without re-encoding existing vob file
i have a DVD that was produced by a stand alone DVD recorder. the material is about 3 hours long and appears to be encoded in fairly poor quality 352×576 mpeg2. i need to trimm bits off the end of the video and make a new menu and burn it back onto a DVD. when i try importing the vob file into DVD architect it informs me that i do not have enough space on the DVD – even though i set the project defaults to 352×576. it also sais it needs to re-encode the video. not sure why?
basically what i am asking is
1. how do i trim a vob file without having to re-encode it
2. how do i author a DVD using an existing vob file (at 352×576) without a. the need to re-encode and b. running out of space …any help would be greatly appreciated.
if dvd architect cannot do what i want. is there softwate out there that does?
