The Audio_TS directory isn't strictly required and is usually empty.
The directory and files on the DVD burned with dvdrsab look correct for the authored structure. Not sure what has happened, but would just use pburn for the burning since it works for you. I use pburn most of the time too.

-you used vobcopy to rip into 3 vob files that contain 4 episodes
If you now want to use these to create the new dvd AND you do not need menus, here is a method that I tested and should work for youMerge multiple vob to dvd:
-put vob files in a directory
-copy merge_video.sh to the directory and set permissions to executable
-edit merge_video.sh to match input vob file names
-open a terminal in the directory and type: ./merge_video.sh
-press enter and it will create a single dvd compatible output.mpg file
-use pdvdrsab to shrink output.mpg if required, pdvdrsab will name the output file to a .vob, rename it back to a .mpg
-use pdvdrsab to author the new shrunken .mpg
-use dvdrsab or pburn to burn dvd
Added this solution to first post.
(with one minor mod - ditching the use of pdvdrsab for the final author - in favour of allowing pburn to do that automatically as part of the burn)
Excellent, should help others who may have the same problem. You may want to experiment with DVDSTYLER since it could merge the .mp4 episode files you made, shrink them, add menus and author for ISO or DVD. I shows it can burn too, but have not tried that feature.
