I know this question has been posted many times before, and I've looked through every single one following all the instructions, but still no joy: Backing up DVDs to a 800MB CDR using DVD Decrypter, DVD2AVI .NET edition, and Tmpgenc Plus2.5. Decrypter and DVD2AVI works fine, but the file always seems to run over about 200MB in Tmpgenc. Settings I am using: Stream Type: System (Video+Audio) / NPEG-1 Video Size: 352 x 288 pixels (I'm in Australia) Aspect Ratio:4:3 625 line (PAL) Frame rate : 25fps Rate Control Mode : CBR Bitrate : 935kbits VBV Buffer : 0 Motion search precision : I keep setting this on Highest but it keeps reverting back to normal? Video Source Type : Interlace Field Order : Bottom Field first Source Aspect Ratio : 4:3:625 PAL Video Arrange Method : full screen Audio Stream Type: MPEG-1 Audio Layer 2 Sample Freq 44100hz Channel Mode Stereo Bitrate 160kbits Stream Type : MPEG - 1 Video CD (non standard) After this I use the wizard, and adjust the bitrate and sound til it fits within the 800MB, but it always ends up burning over ;( It was all working properly until I had to reformat my computer.. so what am I doing wrong? Is there some obscure setting that I have missed ? Please advise me .. Regards, Bonnie.
are you using 'force film' in dvd2avi??? I have found when I did that and then did not do the 3:2 pulldown I would end up with a 1gig file (just like yours). what is the frame rate of the movie to begin with???
