I purchased a commercial DVD set of a TV series and want to back up each disc as well as remove unwanted credits.

 I used DVD Decrypter to successfully rip a disc to my hard drive.  Then, using Nero Encode 2, I was able to trim the credits from each episode (with Set Start/End Frames) and burn a DVD that played properly on my computer and a stand alone DVD player.

My problem is that for each episode there are additional credits contained in end of the first chapter of each episode.  I have attempted to cut these credits out using NeroVision Express.  The resulting DVD played OK but the audio and video were out of sync and did not play smoothly.

I am new to DVD burning and editing but I can’t see anything I might have done wrong.  Do I need some other editor to achieve what I am trying to do?

The version of Nero 6.3 was updated to the latest 2 weeks ago to 6.3.1.20.  I played the disk on two players on my computer (Intel Pentium 4) – Nero Show Time and Cyberlink Power DVD with the same problems.  I have two stand alone players and the burned DVD played with the same problems on both.

My problem may be with NeroVision Express.  I took one vob file from the ripped disc and used NeroVision Express to create a DVD-Video from it.  I used the make new movie option, imported the vob file as a media file and added it to my project, created a simple menu item and then burned it to my hard disc.  Nero went ahead and burned the new DVD-Video.  When I played it on my computer the audio and video were out of sync by a second or so.  This was all without doing any cutting or other editing of the file.

I guess my question is what is going wrong with Nero?  Can the program be used to take a DVD movie and cut a section out of it (not simply trim it).  Is this operation better done with some other editor?

Thanks for any help.
