Hi There
What i normaly do is use DVD decrypter then DVDane 130
and finish with Clone DVD, i have learnt how to compress the movie but i am not sure how you can put both movies on one dvd and then have some sort of menu system at the beginning to select the one i want to watch
cheers Fast Rob i am using original DVDs to copy from.

Encode your mpegs as dvd, with a low bitrate so the finished mpeg is about 2.1gig. Use mpeg audio (mp2/mpa) and not LCPM.
Tmpgenc will do this, if you take note of the advanced options.
Once you have the mpegs, you need a program to author them to dvd.
That's where you add the menu to choose which movie you want to watch.
My personal fave is DVDLab, but there are many others, some with severly restricted options, and you may not be able to author a dual-movie dvdr with them.

I would suggest that you re-use the original AC3 or if you would rather have more space for video at the expense of audio downmix to 2 channel AC3 if no such original stream is available.
Might also want to try CCE instead of TMPGEnc for encoding the m2v.
TMPGEnc DVD author will also do for authoring. Simply add each movie as a title and follow the wizard to do the menu's, etc.
If the movies are really long you might want to consider not using full DVD res. Could I guess also convert from anamorphic 16:9 to widescreen 4:3 which would mean less actual movie pixels to encode.

If you follow the DVD to DVDR Tutorial, but set the CD Size to 1/2 a dvd, ie 2200, then encode, DVD2SVCD takes car of everything for you and you end up with the video & audio streams. If its a 23.976fps then Pulldown is run automatically also. Convert the audio to AC3 2ch with ffMPEG. As C_D said, CCE is the way to go for both speed and quality.
Do the same for the 2nd movie, then author both in DVDLab (or TMPGEnc DVD Author) adding a Menu as required.
