Hi all, I am using DVD Flick on two different machines (1 win7 the other XP). On the Win 7 machine i am using DVD flick to create a dvd from video files taken with a JVC video camera. I have slected the option to Copy MPEG-2 Streams and DVD flick seems to bypass the "encoding" step when creating the DVD as it is supposed to. The end result is a DVD which plays perfectly in any DVD player. when i try the exact same steps with the exact same files on the XP machine it slowly re-encodes every title. This is driving me crazy. Does anyone out there know why this is happening, or have any idea where i am going wrong.?
The Source files are compliant mpeg2 720x576 ac3 audio. The PC speeds are significantly different but the Windows 7 box is skipping the step all together. I would expect that if speed was an issue the Win7 box would still do the re-encode step, just faster. On the win7 box its 30 seconds between clicking create DVD and IMGburn starting to burn.
On my XP machine, a thirty minute compliant source takes just over four minutes. The 'encode video' step - the source being demuxed - is 90 seconds.
