how to encode my videoTS folder with ffmpegx , which contains serial films?
exemple: 24h, Rome, desperate house wife,....

when I encode my videoTS folder, which contains a serial film, I just have at the end the first episode !
What is the tip to get all of the episodes ?

thanks for your help

Are you encoding FROM a video_ts folder, or TO a video_ts folder?

my files to be encoded are all in the videoTS folder
I conclude it is from a video ts folder

DVD content in a video_ts folder is devided in 'titles' (between 1 and 99), in this case most likely one title for each episode. ffmpegX and most other encoding software takes one title at a time. Hence, you'd have to start an encoding for each episode. You can select the title to encode in the Video tab.

as a matter of fact I do encode each file but I would like to select the video TS one time to encode all the files contained inside as I do with all classical movie to have a single avi file at the end.But with serial films this thechnique just encode the first episode and does not chain with the other ones in the video ts folder !!!
I still do not have any simple solution.
I am sure I am not the only one to encode this kind of popular serial film !!

Can anyone help?
regards

If the DVD has been authored in a straightforward way, you may be able to join the corresponding VOBs together into a single file first, and then convert. However, this method is not guaranteed to work satisfactorily. And it is not quite as simple a process as you have been hoping for, but it may be worth a try to see if it works, and to see if it's acceptable to you.
