  1. I'm trying to backup "24 - season one". It's a 6 disk set, each with multiple episodes. I found many methods on copying to dvd-r, but I cant seem to find an easy way of copying to svcd. Does anybody have a guide or a good method of copying each episode individually? (preferably two 1-hour episodes per disk?)

    two 1-hour episodes per disk? that's pushing the limits there a bit. its better to fit one episode per disc. you get better quality.

  3. Well, one episode per disk would mean using up 24 disks! Thats a bit extreme...but I guess it would be better quality.
    ^ Is there a way of batch converting the episodes so I can do it all over night? And for some reason when i use tmpgenc alone (instead of with dvd2svcd, which takes too long because its indivisual episodes), the video comes out shaky...it looks like an earthquake in the movie :P anyone know why?

  5. I just use a bat file to do the whole thing for me, I havent done 24 so I dont know how its on the DVD, 1 PGC w/ all episodes, 1 PGC per episode, different PGC numbers from DVD to DVD... I encode lots of TV Series DVDs to CVD, but no two are exactly the same. Here's an example of my stargate sg1 bat file. Click my link and you'll find I have some other ones.
