if you need to make dvd-author dvd compatible files and are having audio sync problems or anything else,try this...
saves a step as it demux/adds dvd nav packets/muxes all in one step!!
[not to mention mucho gigs drive space!}
not sure on comparison completion times but it seems much faster..i get around 300fps [it's only de/muxing]
i've burned several files with dvd-author and they work great...
ffmpeg also can convert them same way...
i thought maybe myvideos dvd-burning could benefit alot...Smile
Quote:mencoder %1 -of mpeg -oac copy -ovc copy -mpegopts format=dvd:telecine:tsaf -o %~dpn1.vob
[note: telecine and tsaf may not be needed but won't hurt being there]
also can keep .mpg extension if wanted...

to use ffmpeg just do a 'copy' for both codecs and make output format dvd or ntsc-dvd or pal-dvd [as applicable]
it Will insert dvd nav packets where appropriate without re-compression..

let me know if it works for you..

Would be very handy to those having difficultly with MyDVD... i.e. me!

So i could use the Ffmpeg as a custom profile for the transcode option in video library to produce DVD-Author files and then use posttranscode.bat (or whatever its called) to call a batch file that will pass those files to DVD author and then to nerocmd to burn?

yea,that sounds good to me...also i'm working on a way to add files to dvd burn list and burn them from transcode menu..Smile [i use replacement ffmpeg proxy]
already have it doinbg overnight que from transcode menu and ability to use any encoder or perform any action on files selected with transcode button..Smile
works,just need a way to see the list before burning...
i'll work on a batch replacement for myvideos dvd burner...[and maybe dvd burning plugin [or are the batches the same?]]
worked out the dvdauthor bits in pure batch already..Smile
if you come up with a replacement batch post it and i'll put mine up if i get there first..Smile

oh and myvideos will do the 'conversion' for you automatically if you use that..
[not sure about the seperate dvd plugin]
his bits make menus so the dvdauthor part is really nice work..[MyVideos]
this and nerocmd are how i am gonna use it...
i remember using the dvdplugin and it took so long i scrapped it..plus the gigs of extra space it needed turned me off...this may make it usefull tho Smile
i usually burn my dvd's straight from reg. mpegs straight to disc,no temp files even...0 disk space needed for temp...using Ulead dvd movie factory...
however long it takes to burn,is how long it takes start to finish...so taking 3 times this much time before even starting the burn just wouldn't do...lol
this should make it a 4 gig temp and one pass vob creation to create burnable dir with files.. i suggest putting it in postprocessing.bat and replacing the original mpg so gbpvr doesn't freak and they'll be ready to go a few minutes after being made..Smile
i skip the iso part too..nerocmd can burn a folder dvd...
just tryin to streamline a bloated procedure..

my system just runs the demux/remux process once a night (after epg update) on the newly recorded vids, that way to burn no conversion is needed.

ill look into using memcoder by default if its faster, i just used pva because, well it worked.

might want to use ffmpeg, since it's already included with GBPVR..
i need to compare speed cuz mencoder just seemed a bit faster but may just be me...Smile
i have a batch file replacement ready i think, is the input filename in convert.bat %1? [i see the output is,but the input comes from the pvas project file]
more testing in the works...

im not sure what is what with the current version, the next version i added a few more params and the standard convert.bat file will convert any non .mpeg/.mpg file to dvd format using ffmpeg. which ive tested with some divx files (no one really seemed to know about this feature before, and its the entire reason why i used .bat files instead of hardcoding the apps.)

here's the ffmpeg version...seems just as fast if not faster...showed lots of errors but apparently it fixed them cuz dvdauthor had no complaints at all..Smile
Quote:fmpeg -i %4 -y -ildct -f vob -target ntsc-dvd -vcodec copy -acodec copy %1
let me know how it goes for you...
Enjoy!
