Excuse me for bringing this to the front of the line again but I still need help.
Learning to speak Mac whilst learning to ....uh...backup DVD's is a lot to ask of an old codger.

Two questions, on my new Mac have appeard some Video TS folders with some VOB files in them. They must have gotten there by some miracle, almost as though someone had used MTR to put them there. Anyhow, I figured as long as they are there, I might as well put them in itunes.

Heres the two questions:
(1) has anyone else had trouble converting multi-episode video files (in my case "Friends" and "Seinfeld" episodes? I have Popcorn, Crunch, Visual Hub and Handbrake and all I can ever get is the first episode no matter what I turn the settings to.

(2) most feature movies convert fine but I have run across two exceptions (one rather old, one new) where I get the message "Contents of this VIdeo TS folder cannot be compressed", or some variation of that depending on the conversion program.

I'd be perfectly happy to be directed to any mac or video user forums but I figured the experts on here would probably know the answers.

Many thanks.
