Right. Or:

tccat -d 0 -i /dev/dvd -t dvd -P 1 > ${proj}.vob

There are many ways. But that's not the point.

The problem is, what happens if it's still too big? (larger than the
space available on the destination DVD)
Sometimes you need to shrink the m2v part. Is there a way to shrink it
without actually extracting it?

For the moment, i extract the M2V and the AC3 and, if the M2V is still
too humongously big, i requantize it with tcrequant (part of the current
transcode CVS version).

Or tcprobe -i /dev/dvd

Cool, added to the bookmarks. Thanks!

Someone suggested (based on the mplex debug messages that i posted) that
the problem might be that the AC3 stream is shorter than the M2V stream,
so it erroneously triggers the split somehow.
I'm not sure whether that's the explanation or not. I erased the files
that were causing the issue.
