  home - guides - dvdremake

Posted on 13 Apr 2005 by Einstein

Sometimes you may want to remove a button but also remove the button image. This is not possible with any one tool but you can do it with a combination. This guide will show you how to change the menu from the original bitmap to the modified version.


  • create 4 folders called 1,2,3,4 in a new Directory Folder
  • import the original DVD into DRM
  • create a new project
  • in the original DVD, copy the VTS that contains the menu (right click VTS and Copy VTS)
  • in new project right click DVD and select Add Copied VTS
  • blank the complete Video Title Set 2 (select Menu and PGC separately and then right click and hide all blocks)
  • browse and find the individual menu block (not Menu PGC) in Video Title Set 2 menu's
  • right click and restore the menu block
  • right click the preview and export the image and save it as Menu.BMP to Folder 2
  • edit the Menu.BMP in any paint program to do whatever you want and save it as MOD.BMP
  • export the new project DVD into Folder 1

  • load Folder 1 into DVDShrink and select Reauthor (make sure you have logical remapping disabled in DVDShrink options)
  • find your menu and double click it or drag it across to the left
  • click the start/end icon (or right click and select) to check for any chapters as some menus are grouped together
  • switch to the compression setting tab
  • select Still Image where it currently says Automatic and browse to Folder1 and choose MOD.BMP
  • click Backup (untick create VIDEO_TS folder) and select Folder 2
  • click OK and DVDShrink will process very fast but don't close DVDShrink
  • open Folder 2 (click the link that DVDShrink shows) and rename VTS_01_1.VOB as New.VOB

  • as you didn't close DVDShrink click OK to close the DVDShrink process finished window
  • change the Still Image setting to No compression
  • keep all audio & subtitles by making sure all are selected
  • click Backup and then OK. It's alright to delete all the files when it asks as it will leave New.VOB intact which is all you need
  • close DVDShrink

  • import Folder 2 into DRM and browse to the cell in Video Title Set 1/ Program Chains/PGC 1
  • select replace block
  • browse to the original block from the original DVD and select that
  • export the DVD into Folder 3

  • open vobedit and browse to Folder 2 selecting New.VOB
  • click Demux
  • select the MPEG Stream in top part and click OK
  • it will display New.m2v as the filename so just click Save

  • open Folder 3 and open VTS_01_0.IFO with IFOEdit
  • select VOB extras
make sure only the following are selected :
  • Re-Mux
  • Correct Vob-Unit (Nav Pack) pointers
  • Correct original IFO files
  • Adjust VOB-Unit pointers
  • Adjust Audio/Sup pointers
  • select Folder 4 as the destination
  • click the *.m2v file for Re-Mux and browse to Folder 2 and select New.m2v
  • click OK and IFOEdit will display Finished Correcting VOBU pointers so close IFOEdit

  • go back to the original DVD you imported into DRM
  • select replace block for the menu you have just edited
  • browse to Folder 4 and the VTS_01_1.VOB
  • you will now see the new menu to select
  • once you Export the DVD you should get a new working menu with original buttons and actions
  • don't forget to 'hide' any buttons you have edited out of the image
