Good Morning All...

I am also working with Easy DVD Copy 2 Premier, and have a question I hope is simple:

I wish to create a video compilation from multiple DVD movies, then transferring the completed compilation to mpeg4 format for my ipod video. Trouble is, I want the compilation to consist of ONE, seamless 2-hour long chapter. When you use Roxio's "Video Compilation" feature, it divides all the various clips into individual chapters of their own. Is there any way around this so all of my clips can be seamlessly "linked" into one big chapter? Thanks in advance for all your help.

Just a couple of thoughts -

On a single layer DVD, the maximum at good quality is about 60 minutes - or about 90 minutes of lesser qualilty.  Unless you have a Dual-Layer burner, you wouldn't be able to put it onto a DVD - altho I don't now about iPod.

Many have noticed a problem with sound/video syncronization, which gets worse the longer the chapter is.  Trying for one 2-hour chapter could really get into problems there.

Instead of putting it on a DVD why not just output the video as a file.That way you can output to mpeg4 right away and not have to convert it again.That is if DVD Copy will let you do that.Disc Copier will and that's what DVD Copy is modeled after.
