Re: Combine old SD DVD's onto a Blu-ray disk?

[Nigel O'Neill] "1) You would use the DVD import feature of Vegas, pop it onto the time line and add your chapter markers, so that when the rendered file is imported into DVDA, it recognises them."

As a somewhat related follow-up question, if you were to do that, and if the original DVD files were done at a variable bitrate, is there a way to create the mpeg2 file without recompressing but just having Vegas just rewrite the same video into a new file? I remember several times years ago when I'd render an mpeg2 from mpeg2 footage and every once in a while it'd give you the flash that a screen doesn't need recompression because the new bitrate was the same as the bitrate on a few frames of the original, but I'm wondering if there's a way to forget about the template settings and just use all the original mpeg2 frames.
