put series'/seasons onto dvdr help

Hi

say i download a season of something and the directory has 60 avi divx's.

how do i go about converting them to dvd and burning a fair amount of episodes onto one disc?

am i right in thinking the max dvdrs can hold on one disc is 2 hours? (which would be like 4 episodes out of 60!)?

back to the second paragraph, as i diont want to have to convert 60 avis through winavi which would take me till next year whats the best way of getting them all onto dvd.

ive been thinking of an avi joiner but i want seperate chapters for each episode so you click next on the dvd menu or dvd remote to go to whatever episode (hopefully you know what i mean) and that probably wont happen if i stick them all together in 1 file etc

ive been thinking nero vision express may be the thing i need to use? but i never use it becos it takes about 2-3 hours to convert/burn/whatever to a dvd compared to about a conversion of 30 minutes in winavi and 10 minutes of burning in clone dvd

so whats the best way to go about getting seasons/series' onto dvdr that is suitable like one from the shop (where u can just skip scan to a episode or choose one from the menu)

and oh yeah menu's would be nice too, i know nero can do that but like i said a couple of paragraphs above

hope someone can help as i desperately need it.

thanks

 

u could use divxtodvd but i like nero better even if it takes longer.u could also try avitodvd go here http://divx.trustfm.com.ru/

 

yes but im talking about 60 files here.

with divxTOdvd u can only convert one at a time and that takes donkeys years to convert too

and i dont wanna be here till christmas converting 60 files and figuring out how to get them onto dvdr suitably like a season should be put on a dvd

ty

 

time seems to be ur problem. u might have to go with an xtra pc so u can dedicate it to this. i have alot of friends that do this because it takes so much time to download and convert.

 

i am not buying a new pc just for the case of trying to figure out how to put a couple of seasons on a few dvdrs lol

 

sorry. as far as i know there is no way around the time problem. if u think nero is slow try using rat dvd or cce with rebuilder.now thats slow.

 

now this topic is starting to go off topic and on the topic of time

can we please stay on the same topic as the one i made for help lol

 

nero will do it all.i would suggest playing around with recode and rv under dvd selection.

 

try this http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/index.html

 

neither of them seem to do the job gamename.

what im looking for is something where i can put 60 seperatre avi files on a few dvds and chapters for each episode kinda.

ps: how many avi's could i fit onto a single layer dvd disc? (after their covnersion to dvd format and burnt etc?), thanks.

ps2: does nero reloaded burn any faster than the standard version that come with my dvdrw drive?


thanks

 

this is what you do:
use TMPGEnc to convert your avi's to a .wav and .mv2
use TMPGEnc Author to make menus and author it
(these are different but work together well)
(both free trials)
(i have gotten 8 to a dvd, quality was not perfect but good enough for me)
i had it run over night (i would say converting 60 avi's is about 5 days of straight encoding) then making each menu of 8 takes 20-30 min of authoring and 15 min of burning.

u realize though that the computer can do things while files are encoded (just dont run very powerful programs)

also breaking it up could help (i do about 1 dvd every 2 days)

hoped this helped
