Hi guys this is my 1st post so here here gos

I have a movie file which is in AVI format, I have used DVDSANTA to turn it into a VOB/thingy file so i can use dvd shrink to burn to a dvd.

The original AVI is fine and runs smooth on my pc , but as soon as i use DVDSANTA ,and i check the VOB files it has created they keep jumping and freezing..

Does anybody know what is causing this as its really begining to get on my tits thanks

hope i make sense

 

Hi there,

When you say you check the VOB file, I assume you mean playing the VOB on the computer, and not burned to media right?

I never used DVDSanta, sorry !

You can also try DivXtoDVD from VSO.

It makes a good job converting .AVI to VOB files...

It's still free (v0.5.2b) so grab it while you can

 

thanks for the reply

will DivXtoDVD keep the original picture standard or will quality be lost?

 

Hi,

Personally, I had friends over and didn't even notice it was not an original DVD

I'm not a huge quality freak, but I say it's pretty decent !!!

 

I personally think divx2dvd is good. Works fast, is free and simple to use. Never tried DVD Santa, but I keep reading posts about people saying that their audio doesn't sync up with the video or video looks like crap. So I am under the impression that this software is crap. I'd say try other software like cougar says.

 

thanks.

i tried DivXtoDVD was quite pleased with end result but ,play back seemed a bit jerky..

gonna go try AVI2DVD

 

cool, let us know how that works out for ya.
