    I used this once to encode a AVI to VIDEO_TS and burned a UDF disk in toast 6.0 and it worked fine. Since then the files I have tried to encode haven't worked out at all. I made couple of DVDS with AVI files and the DVDS played with the audio a few seconds off and a couple of them were just audio.

    My process is as follows

    *Check that the AVI plays in QT with codecs installed
    *Open the AVI in FFmpegX and use the DVD w/mpeg2enc preset (This is what I used on the first file that worked, the others were done using the programs own encoder. What is the difference in the two?)
    *Let it process overnight or however long it takes.
    *Burn the VIDEO_TS folder onto a DVD using the Data: UDF something or other setting in toast.

    So...am I missing something in encoding, burning to fast, using crap media?

    If it matters I am on a Sawtooth G4 with a 800 MHz upgrade chip, 256mb RAM, and a Pioneer A107 8x burner and the disks were Mememorex (I know they suck but they were free with the burner)

    Yep I'd try some Ritek media or something else.
