I am new to the whole world of burning DVD's so if some of my terminology is off, I apologize. I have recently downloaded and started using VSO DivxToDVD so that I can burn movies that I downloaded to my hardirve onto a DVD. There are three problems that I have been having. The first is that although the program reencodes the movies to the suitable format it takes hours until it's done. Is the normal? Second, I was able to put more then one movie onto a DVD but the program does not let you make a menue, so you can choose whic movie you want to see. Is there a solution to this or maybe a similar program that does have the capability to make a main menue. Third problem is that once the files have been recoded they are not in the same order and when I burn multiple movies, the parts are not in the correct order on the DVD. If anybody can help me out with one or all of these problems it would be greatly appreciated.
hi how long does it take as this is one of the quicker apps!!! no this app doesnt make menus it will jion 3 films into 1 say. they will play 1 after the other... the way you load them is the order i think with that app first loaded becomes first to play second becomes second... but dont quote me i use film machine for avi to dvd projects menus i use tmpgenc dvd author, you will have to do them seperately then load each one to tmpgenc and make a menu, pretty simple app to use for menus... what file types are you dropping in this app?? mpeg? avi?
Well, I just finished encoding three movies and it took more then 7 hours! If that is fast, I would hate to see whats slow. The problem with the order of the files is as follows. The files are switched into DVD format and placed in a Video_TS folder but they are out of order and some of the files seem to have doubled themselves as well. Most of the movies that I want to burn are Mpegs. Thanks for the help.
hi umm? something doesnt sound right there? films switching round? ok if they are mpegs i would use dvd patcher to make the mpeg to dvd compliant mpeg2 then load the mpegs to tmpgenc dvd author (make menu), this way there isnt any encoding for 7 hours! only authoring to vobs/dvd! no encoding = no loss of quailty! dvd patcher makes it possible by cheating tmpgenc to except the mpegs
I assume you are using the 0.5.2 version. The 1.99.59 version (shareware//if you buy it the watermark goes away and encoding is a bit faster)gives you automatic menus (soon you will be able to do your own menu creation. If you would like the VSO support team seems to be pretty good a replying quickly to user questions--use this link http://download.vso-software.fr/vsorep.exe
that happened to me the first time i used winavi's batch conversion. i loaded three avis and what i got was the episodes were mixed up. i later realized that the sequence order was not right after loading them. i'm not sure about the program you used, but for winavi, you can switched the order of the avis and that got rid of my problem although each episode is still split into 2 files. each of my avi are about 375 mb yet i couldn't seem to fit 3 episodes into one 4.7gb so yea, i'm still figuring that out. good luck!
