That is more messing around than either of the projects at hand call 
for.
There is no reason to look at or process TS files to copy a DVD  unless 
it is copy protected or over 4.7 gig.
And remember, Though naked TS folders will play on your Mac they will 
not play in a DVD player.
TS folders must be in another folder . ( that one represents the DVD)
The Audio TS folder is most often empty and is  I think, for music.
