You may have more luck on a more relevant mailing list.
dvdauthor is quite powerful and there are tutorials on the net.
I know, but dvdauthor is an application for :  assembles multiple mpeg 
program streams into a suitable DVD filesystem. And not for crack the 
menu of the dvd. If I'm wrong please let me know.


 Thank you,

Hello

I need change the DVD region of my DVDs, What I do is:
 1: make a dvd backup with 'dvdbackup'.
 2: change the region with a rubi's script that I found in the net.
 3: make a dvd image with 'mkisofs'.
 4: try to burn the dvd with 'growisofs'.

The problem is that the image is to big to be burned in the DVD 
with capacity of 4.7GB.
So my idea is to remove the Special Features from the DVD and from 
the dvd-menu and the  burn the DVD.


So my question is How can to be riped the dvd-menu, then rebuild it 
just with the movie, How to know with files are the "Special 
Features" and also remove them. And finally make the image and burn 
it (steep 3 and 4 above).



 Thank you in advance,

 Gustavo



K9copy from debian-multimedia does exactly this.  You can chose to 
keep whatever aspects of the original DVD you want and they are 
recoded to fit a standard DVD.

I have just done exactly what you want to do with k9copy.  It uses 
dvdauthour to create menus *if* you chose not to include the original 
menu.  Otherwise it automatically uses the existing menus and the 
links to features that were not encoded don't work.


From its description

Package: k9copy

Suggests: k3b
Description: copy DVD like dvdshrink
 A small utility which allows the copy of DVD on Linux. The DVD video 
stream is compressed by the program Vamps.


 o Copy without menus :
  In this case, dvdauthor is used to create a new DVD structure. It is
  possible to choose the order in which the video sequences are played.

 o Copy with menus :
  As dvdauthor does not make it possible to integrate the original 
menus, K9Copy reproduces the original structure of the DVD. The 
navigation packs as well as IFO files are modified to point on the 
compressed MPEG stream.


As for the KDE dependencies I dont think you can get round this :).

Wackojacko


OK, so just rest try it.

 Thank you, Gustavo
