XviD Menus

    Hi all,

    I've converted a load of my movies to XviD with no problems. I prefer XviD to other formats and would like to keep the files as they are, however my Xbox hard drive is now full and I need to burn a few movies to DVD.

    As each movie is only around 700MB to 1GB and converting them to MPEG2 DVD files makes them 4GB and over, I would like to keep the files as XviDs.

    Is there a program for XviD files like DVDLab that will allow me to create menus for a DVD using XviD files as the video source, rather than using an MPEG2 file ?

    I play my movies on an Xbox which recognises a single XviD file and plays it fine, as does my new portable DVD player, so it makes sense to me to try and burn multiple XviD files to a DVD with a menu to select each individual movie.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    That's a great idea, but sadly, no there is no such program.

    Surely they can be writen to the DVd as DATA :)

    Now you can get four, or maybe five, onto each DVD-R, and when you want to play them, download onto the XBox ..

    Procode ..

    Yeah that works but I want to be able to view them on my portable dvd player which doesn't recognise them in that format.

    Anyway, a lot of searching has brought me to the program BsiLoadMaker. Found this on a well known BitTorrent site and it does what I want perfectly. The only drawback is that you cant create complex menus with scene selection ( or at least I havent found out how to yet ). Other than that this works fine for me.
