DVD FAB Merge feature

Hi. I want to copy multiple discs of a tv show to 1 DVD+R DL. The instructions for this are unclear. Can someone please clarify the process? Thanks!

Merge mode allows you to combine content from more than one disc. Unless you have many optical drives you will need to copy the files to your hard drive first. There is a quick guide for Merge mode here:
and more information in the Tutorial, here:

Merge mode does not support menus. You will only be able to copy multiple discs to a single DL with heavy compression. Try one and see how it looks.

Post again after reading the above if you still have questions. I have moved your thread to the correct forum (DVD to DVD).

I understand the above posts, but how can you combine multiple DVD's into one WMV file? I've used the merge process on a 2 disc movie and then tried the DVD to Mobile option, but it gives me two files. Did I do something wrong?

DVDFab does not have the ability to combine titles into one playable file.

thanks for the quick response. Has anyone found a good way to do this and still maintain the 5.1 sound? I've only come across a few movies, but it would be nice! (Lord of the Rings movies specifically)

Yes, that is the title that always comes up as the reason for the request. The movie is like 4 hours long. Starting the next file doesn't seem like a big deal. It might even be a good time for a pee break (not healthy to hold it you know).

Most free videojoiners that I have tried seem to need to re-encode the files with a resultant loss in quality, but there are plenty out there on the web,

I would not even bother myself. I agree with Complication.

Most players that I have will automatically move on to the next title automatically, so if you have them named correctly, I cannot see any issue.

I use Twonky and an Xbox 360... that combination does not continue onto the next file automatically, it goes back to the list... And I have a bladder like no other - so hopefully this is something that can be corrected in the future
