  1. Hello

    --- My DVD created with Ifoedit plays the video twice as fast.
    --- The sound plays at normal speed, also subtitles are played at normal speed.

    What is wrong?


    More details:

    I made my mpeg2 files with TmpgEnc 2.5, source is a divx5 file (640*480 / 30 frames)
    I tried standard PAL-DVD or NTSC-DVD settings.
    As result I get a *.m2v file and a *.wav file
    These files can be played normal, the video has a size of ~2.5 GB and duration is 44 Minutes
    (average bitrate was 7900kb, I changed nothing else, normal processing speed)

    Then I try to make a DVD with Ifoedit. I choose the video file, the audio and
    create the DVD files.
    The result is always the same: Normal sound, but video is played at 2x-speed.

    I want to create the DVD with ifoedit because I need to include some
    subtitle files. (there is no difference when I create the DVD with or without the subtitles)

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks
    Bodo

    let me get this straight - the video is playing faster than the audio, so the images are rushing ahead of the sound?

    is it really 2Xspeed, or is it just faster? i'm thinking it might be something to do with the framerate.

    how are you checking your video? are you playing from within Ifoedit, using preview mode? in which case, play it in some other software, such as PowerDVD, and see if it still plays weird. i sayt his because i remember having a similar effect in one player that wasnt reproduced in another, nor on the final written disc.

    you might want to try burning the disc to a DVD-/+RW (or DVD-/+R if you dont mind throwing it away if it's a failure) and seeing if it plays in your standalone.

    Yes thats right, and they are really fast - it's not the difference between 25 and 30 frames I guess, it's much more.

    I checked with PowerDVD. I tried playing only a VOB file (drag&drop), and tried playing the full DVD (always from HD, I never burned a real DVD)
    The picture always run away from the sound and subtitles. PowerDVD shows 44 Minutes running time, but that can't be true. I would say it's even more than 2x-speed. I think the whole DVD movie is played in
    around 16 minutes now.
    Maybe the video is running with 60 Frames per minute while it should be 25. ??
    Ifoedit doesn't do any framerate conversations or new compression to the video I believe, so where can this error happen?

    I can play the *.m2v file with Windows Media Player and it works fine, shows me 44 minutes time (sure, without sound)

    I will try to produce a DVD with Tmpgenc DVDAuthor today and see if it works - but this nice software doesn't allow me to include Subtitles...

    i beleive you can add subs in DVDauthorgui, but your audio has to be ac3. you can convert that with ffmpeggui, though. all free.

    I had problems installing the GUI for DVDAuthor... so I gave that up. I always got some error messages (maybe Visual Basic errors or something like that)

  6. Maybe it is not bad idea to install the Visual Basic required from GFD. There is workaround I believe. You can click only "generate Batch" and after that executing the batch files one after another to author the DVD. The order of execution you can get from MainBatch.bat (I think this was the name, the file contains only some remarks and calling commands to the other batch files in order)
