    I tried the TMPEGEnc Plus and IFOedit and was able to get one movie to work right, but then I followed the guides at DVDRhelp.com and now everything I try to convert is screwed up. I've tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it, but something is saved somewhere and I can't get it to work right anymore.
    So I switched to those $20 convertors and so far the best one i've found is Cucusoft's Avi to VCD/DVD convertor. I've used WinMPG, All video, Super video etc. and they're all crap. WinMPG took 8 hours to convert a 1:30hr movie and the quality sucked. Cucusoft seems to do it fast and doesn't screw up the movie. The quality is the closest to TMPGs I've seen so far. As far as I know, there is no working crack or serial for it so you have to buy it or download and try it which only does about 1 minute of video.

    Another one I forgot is Arcsoft Showbiz. Again, almost as perfect as TMPGEnc but very easy for newbies. It's packaged with Sony DVDwriters and is installed with Sonic MyDVD, but is a seperate program.

    Hey all,

    New to this forum but let me give you all a word of advise.

    DO NOT BUY NOTHING FROM (Cucusoft) They s*ck!

    I like rhem was looking for software to convert a xvid to dvd and the Cucusoft web site said that its software worked with xvid.
    I downloaded the demo and
    The demo did great job for the 1 minute its limeted to.. it converted 1 minute of the movie NO problems like it said it would.

    So like i said i bought it! WOW what a piece of shit!

    Not only did it ONLY work for 1/2 the movie the other half gave me an error of not being able to do the sound...WHAT? it was able to do it the first half..anyways i sent the company an e-mail explaining the problem and here is the e-mail sent ....

    Dear user,

    We recommend that you install kazaa full codecs package, you can download it from http://www.cucusoft.com/download/codecs/klcodec203f.exe
    This package almost contains all known popular video and audio codecs. Because this package doesn't belong to us, we can't guarantee the quality. Anyway, it is a good stuff.

    Please try again after you install this codecs package.

    Sincerely
    Kelly

    Hey guys,

    Ok so i bit into the hype and bought your program........I can live with the fact that it take close to 9 hours to convert a xvid
    But what i cant live with is that it will do the movie no problem and even do the sound for like half the movie then i get this error.

    "Can not get audio sample" no i have attached a print screen of my screen

    Please let me know what is the deal

    Thanks Ahead of time

    Carlos

    3-Tmpgenc
    STEP BY STEP

    1-open Avi2wav
    Click file then change ext to *.ac3 then click wav

    2-Open Besweet gui
    Under LOCATIONS

    load besweet.exe in first spot
    then under input load file
    then at the right side under besweet profiles
    click on mp2 for dvd

    check output file to make sure it has the ext of *.mp2

    click ac3 to mp2

    3-Tmpgenc
    1-open TMPGEnc
    2-load the DVD settings and browse/open the avi file
    3-then switch the stream type to ES (video only)
    4-open setting at the bottom
    5-in the video tab switch the Rate Control Mode from Constant Quality to Constant
    6-Bitrate then adjust the bitrate to ??????

    were is the bitrate?
    should be right under the Rate Control Mode

    7- then switch to the Advanced Tab and make sure the Video Arrange Method is full screen (keep aspect ratio)
    8-then click "ok"
    9-make sure the output file name is whatever you want it to be

    LAST STEPS
    after it's done, then you'll go into "File---MPEG Tools"
    Simple Multiplex
    open the new video file that you're making now
    the mpg2 that you made in BeSweet
    and make the output whatever you want it named
    that should make the MPEG file
