Hey.
I have a home DVD recorder and have recorded a lot of DVD-R's. I can use diskutility to copy them, but I would really like to figure out how to select one or two titles off one disc, one or two titles off another disc, and burn them all onto one DVD-R. Does anyone know how I can do this?
I read a post about loading .DMG files into iMovie, but my iMovie "quits unexpectedly" whenever I try to mount the .DMG (disc image).
Help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
-kit

so handbrake can get select titles off the dvd-r but man it takes FOREVER. dvd utility takes about 45 minutes to copy a 4.5 GB disc onto the harddrive. handbrake takes at least as long to copy one title. And handbrake can't burn a disc, so then I have to spend more time loading the titles together on another program...
It does work though, so thanks for the help.
