Stupid Exercise Video Intro

DVDfilter: Wife has great exercise video with not so great 10 minute intro that can't be skipped. After the intro there is the dvd menu with the 3 exercise routines. Is there a straightforward way to burn a copy of the exercise routines, leaving off the intro?
DVDShrink should do the trick for for you. It allows you to rip CDs with or without menus, previews, etc. You can download it here. It doesn't seem to work well with newer DVDs. I think it is a copy protection issue.

Err, not CDs. DVDs. Thus the name DVDShrink and not CDShrink.

You can use an app called DVD43 to fix the copyprotection, then use DVDShrink to rip out the junk you don't want, and remaster the DVD. DVDShrink has it's own copy protection removal stuff, but it seems a little outdated...DVD43 should work better for that part of it.

Response by poster: Will Handbrake let me reburn to functional DVD? It was my understanding that it was more for computer viewing.

Best answer: myDVDedit is the best of breed IFO editor for OSX. Make a copy of the DVD using something like MacTheRipper, then modify the IFO as you see fit.
Of course, if the unskippable content is a separate title or chapter, you could just use MTR to rip the bits you care about, leaving behind the part you don't. Then burn the resulting VIDEO_TS.
