I use Nero for 2 hour+ movies as it has the best encode out there. The trouble is, it's way too easy to break something. Often I get a blank screen where a menu or extra was and nothing gets me out of it. The best thing to do is leave anything with English alone and only disable the menus with foreign writting, or remove them altogether.

Test the dvd on the hard disc first by double clicking on the IFO header file.
