Hello,
My wife has a private concert(h264/mp3 3.5 gb 1080p) she would like to convert to make it readable by dvd player.
Since I had to do some authoriting for the menu, I have used Nero Video.
This one allow me to add chapter, menu,... but has very few option for encoding. I found I could choose a VBR wich adapt to the target size but that was nearly all. Can't choose bitrate for audio encoding.
For this reason, I have used ffmpeg to encode manually video part with the following parameter:
I tought that with ffmpeg and qscale:v 1 I was doing kind of lossless encoding but to my surprised final size was only 2.7 gb while with nero I have filled the whole dvd. Is qscale:v 1 is well lossless ?Code:ffmpeg -i input.avi -target pal-dvd -bf 2 -mbd rd -trellis 2 -cmp 2 -subcmp 2 -me_method epzs -threads 4 -vf zscale=w=720:h=576 -qscale:v 1 -aspect 16:9 output.mpg
My oritginal file was in 1080p so I guess that the downscaling to 720x576 explain a part of the shrink(original was 3.5 gb in h264/mp3) but still I think it's a lot compare to the nero encoding which propose me around 6gb with Highest quality(8000kb/s).
here is the ouptut of ffmpeg
I think that ffmpeg average bitrate is far under the nero encoder.Code:frame=146679 fps= 27 q=1.0 Lsize= 2783430kB time=01:37:47.12 bitrate=3886.4kbits/s speed=1.07x video:2398535kB audio:320857kB subtitle:0kB other streams:0kB global headers:0kB muxing overhead: 2.354862%
Is it a problem for dvd playback(does it need constant bitrate ??)
I wanted to use this file but nero seems to reencode it(didn't find a way to just copy it) but with a far less size than with direct nero encoding...
Is it possible to create the whole dvd structure with nero(including menu) and after replace video/audio file by the ffmeg encode ?

I'm not sure of what you mean by mediainfo. Here is a printscreen under Linux of the file information.
EDIT: found mediainfo package here is the full output:

At a quick glance the video is dvd-compliant. It is tho progressive but then your original source was also ?. Interlaced is IMO always better for dvd.
So maybe Nero does not like a progressive source for dvd. Of course, it might not re-encode that video - check for a 'do not re-encode compliant video' setting.
If Nero defaults to 6000 kbps it is going to re-encode regardless.
Even so, the bit rate is quite low - will fit on single-sided media. Will not look great on a large tv.
The other issue is that re-encoding that source will not improve the quality since you can not put back what has already been taken out in that first encode. One more reason to just let one tool do the encoding from the original. -
Thanks for the reply. Source is indeed progressive so as nero video output. I could try to interlaced it however.
Didn't find any "dont encode" option but will check once again. Nero offer to either encode to a given bitrate or to use an adapted bitrate depending on dvd size.
Well bitrate ouptut from ffmpeg is low while I have set quantizer to 1 which should be the best quality...
That's for common user who don't even have a blue-ray player so I have to live with it and encode in DVD format...
I know that reencoding a video won't improve the quality and in my case reencoding a video with an older encoder should even give me something bigger than the original if I didn't downscale the video.
I have already asked if the given source was already encoded by someone cause 3000kbp/s is rather low for 1080p but had no answer till now....
EDIT: found that if smart encoding is enable, there is a checkbox "standard" which should avoid nero to re-encode if video/audio is already in standard mode. Hope this will work...Last edited by thetrueavatar; 14th Jan 2016 at 14:06.

Hum still doesn't work even with smart encoding and standard checked...
Here is the mediainfo of the ouptut(don't see any dif with my provided mpeg2):

Bottom line is that I do not trust Nero.
How can one have a progressive video that has a scan order ?
Is this 'smart' encoding not to re-encode compliant video since if it is then it does not work since both video AND audio have been re-encoded.
Add to that you have apparently lost some 59 minutes (was 1hr 38 - now 39 mins) of your video. Which essentially means that mediainfo can not correctly read the video header.
Just do me a favour. Even without the menu for the sampling. Run the original h264 source through avstodvd and post the report of that. -
Well I have open one of the VOB file that's why it's only 39 min long...
I have install avstodvd and simply add the file and run the "encode". With my ffmpeg encoded file It took less than 2 minutes so it didn't reencode it.
I'm currently running the h264 source file. Will post it when done.
Here is the report for mpeg2 source

Thanks.
Obviously, a better bitrate from the original source. But you now note that it is 21 mins per vob rather than the 39 that Nero produced.
So that means more vobs but is still fitting on to a single-sided disk (well it should) -
Tried to provided it to nero but once again nero reencode it... I'm wondering if it's not preferable to do the encoding directly by nero even if it's not optimize instead of a double reencoding...
-
I forget what encoder Nero uses but avstodvd has two or three (depends on the type of encode - 1 pass or two - you do but can be over-ridden) and all are IMO far superior to anything that Nero can produce.
Look at the chapters option for avstodvd and the menu - may have to dig deep for that (menu editor etc.) -
Ok. I will see if I have enough time to play with it or if my wife needs the encoding tonight. I have noticed to there was 2 encoder but why is ffmpeg in CBR only ? Wanted to use a quantizer mode instead as I did before.
Anyway thanks for the time involved to help me in this nightmare -
^^ You would have to ask the developer about that.
_MrC_ is an active member of the forum and there is a mighty long support thread about the program.
Most tools can be tweaked so I would not be surprised if that is not possible. But why worry right now. You have (I would imagine) a good quality encode. -
Ok I will get a hand on the orignal source file which are 500gb... They have just converted MOV file thinking it was only a mac file type...
-
^^ There was a time when .mov did just mean Apple Quicktime. But these days its just another container format which could hold mpeg2, h264 etc.
BTW when I said 'original source' I meant the 3.5 gig h264. H264 compresses better than mpeg2 and you may not see any great improvement from that 500 gig monster unless it is a lossless format. Will also take quite some time to compress down to dvd. -
My guess is that's a kind of raw/lossless video but indeed I'm not sure to be able to encode it in a decent time ...
I have tried the dvd authoriting from avstovideo with no success till now but I have to learn how to use it
.
Thank for all your help.
