DVD player won´t play converted .avi

[dexter30]

Hi. I´m trying to convert a 23.976 fps .avi file to a compliant DVD disc that can be played on the standalone player. The problem is that the player won´t play the resulted DVD in any way. I´m using TMPGenc 720x480, video format NTSC and tried fps: 29.97, pure 23.976, 23.976 with 3:2 Pulldown (within TMPGenc or external Pulldown.exe), 23.976 with 3:2 Pulldown filter (TMPGenc). The player keeps saying "incompatible disc".

Note: when doing this same conversion with ConvertxToDVD it plays fine. The problem is that I want to use VDub frameserving to TMPGenc so I can apply a sharpening filter. ConvertxToDVD don´t have this capability.

Sample .avi attached.

Thanks is advance.

Convertxtodvd authors the disc - tmpgenc is an encoder and does not author to DVD.

If you want to author a DVD: Create the avi as you are doing, run the final result through convertxtodvd (I use TDA3 to author, but if you already have convertxtodvd - why not use it?)

That´s what I wanted to do in the first place, but like I said, ConvertXToDVD doesn´t accept frameserving from VirtualDub, and I can´t create a huge temp .avi file in VDub cause I don´t have enough HD space.

Convert with tmpgenc. Use simple dvd creator to author the mpg to a standard dvd-video. Burn the VIDEO_TS folder with imgburn.

I forgot to say that I was authoring the output files from TPCGenc with Ifoedit DVD Auhor.

Anyway, I tried Baldrick´s method and it worked like a charm. So the issue was caused by Ifoedit?

Thanks a lot.
