I use avi2dvd, dvd decrypter or Nero. I have been flustrated, I can not find a way to get more than one eps on dvd. I have read guides and information to no help. I also have been coming up with audio being out of time with the video. What am I doing wrong???
Download this program http://dl.afterdawn.com/vsoDivxToDVD_setup_v0.5.2b.exe Insert three 45min episodes (click on the little folder icon each time)and when ready,press 'convert'. Download and install DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter http://www.mrbass.org/dvdshrink/ http://www.mrbass.org/dvdrip/ Run DVD Shrink and click 'Re-author' Navigate to the output folder and drag your titles from right to left. You can run an episode and check sync. Click "Backup" and elect to burn the disk with DVD Decrypter. Burn Verbatim at 4x (that's what Afterdawn's Nero Forum say)
This is a great solution worked for me, but any suggestions on how to create a menu on the dvd so you can access individual episodes?
Make your own with freeware. Convert AVI to VOB with VSO DivX2DVD http://dl.afterdawn.com/vsoDivxToDVD_setup_v0.5.2b.exe Create Menu graphic Page (correct size pal/ntsc) with VCDMenu Lite VCD Menu lite http://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/VCD_Menu_Lite/vcdmenu.html Convert Menu Graphic to 'still' image and link to VOB's with DVD Author GUI http://download.videohelp.com/liquid217/dvdauthorgui.pl Verify and Burn to DVD using DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter DVD Shrink http://www.mrbass.org/dvdshrink/
thanks great advice, Althought i am lost after creating the MV2 file, have done that in DVD Author and linked the vob' files do i then author from DVD author, what file should the dvdauthor program create, when i go to author dvd in dvd shrink i can only pick up the vob files
Did you look at the guide? http://download.videohelp.com/liquid217/dvdauthorgui.pl?p=guide1 Yes you Author the dvd to a folder from inside the GUI. It merges the the menu commands into the VOB files that you created when converting from AVI. If you wish to use Shrink and burn with Decrypter, first install Decrypter, run it and set the burning speed to 4x. Exit Decrypter.You don't need to run it again (unless you want to rip a dvd or burn a disk image). Run Shrink and import the authored files from the folder that you saved them to in the GUI. Click 'Backup!' and when the option screen pops up, elect to burn to dvd using Decrypter.
hey thanks for the tips i am 90% there but when authoring get an error message about multiplexed files and having to unmultiplex , I got my VOB files from converting AVI in http://dl.afterdawn.com/vsoDivxToDVD_setup_v0.5.2b.exe
Start the GUI. If you have two files (converetd from AVI by DivX2DVD) bring them into the GUI and without creating any menu immediately author them. Does it do so without error? BTW there is a sample project here with two .mpg titles and a menu .m2v that you can practice with. http://download.videohelp.com/liquid217/dvdauthorgui.pl?p=samples
just converted one file no menu and try to author in DVDAuthor and got the same message Error code #7 There was an error in the authoring process. It appears that something is wrong with the muliplexed VOB files. If you are using previously multiplexed mpeg/vob files, try demultiplexing. Also, keep in mind that every title under a titleset must have the same properties (fps, resolution, etc). Please review the log for more detailed information.
Can you add "title1.mpg" from the sample link above and author that ok? Then bring the resultant .vob from that exercise in and author that?
I duplicated the problem you have.It seems to be when the AVI is authored into more than one VOB? To get around it, I demultiplexed the VOB files using VOBEDIT. http://www.digital-digest.com/software/download.php?sid=165&ssid=0&did=1 Run VOBEDIT > Open > select the first VOB (the other(s) will come in automatically). Then >Demux and select 'demux all video' and 'demux all audio' from the menu. When it finishes, import the M2V and AC3 into the GUI and continue.
