Hey Folks, Looks like i have experts in this forum.. Anyways, i'm capturing World Cup 2002 Goals from satellite using an ATI Radeon 8500DV. It captures straight into a DVD Formatted file(MPEG2 Stream), and quality is quiet ,well, amazing. I capture the full game so that i dont miss any goal at any time. Now my question is, how can i "Stream Copy" the goals out of the mpg2 file, into a new mpeg2 file? Only way so far is using Powerlinks Power Drecotr, which recompresses, or using Power Director and storing in DV format which doesnt loose quality, but fiels are 100x bigger. Any ideas? I'll try DVtools i jsut downloaded..
Why do you want to do this? To strip out certain parts? If so, use DV-Tool to simply cut/paste the goals to separate MPEG-2 files, instructions can be found from http://www.afterdawn.com/articles/
drD: I want to do this for my thinking of: Keep svcd's of all the games for archives keep the best quality of JUST the goal on a seperate dvd r or something (as raw footage, not dvd format) http://wc2k2.info is the site that the goals will show on. UPDATE: also, looking at the link you pasted, which sub link are you lookingat , the DVTools are for splitting/erging, nothign about cutting (or i'm blind (i'm known for that))
Ok.. DV Tools does the job, but its a pain in the ass, i can only do it by byte increments, wish there was a time slicer or something :|
Well, TMPGEnc's MPEG Tools do the same job, but they have tendency to crash/hang with MPEG-2 files, but they're definately worth a try anyway. And splitting == cutting
