How do I encode 3 or more ripped movies using DVD2SVCD

[LoneTango]

Please help me with this:
How can I encode 3 or more ripped movies using DVD2SVCD 1.09 build2
at the same time so I don't have to be there while it's encoding ...
For example, I want to encode 3 movies with 3 different folders.
Someone said that you can, but they didn't say how to.
Anyone knows how, please show me how or you can email me at: thien2k@netzero.net
Thank you very much for helping me out

did you read the tips in the advanced reference guide on how to do it.
dvd2svcd.org
the most I've ever done is 4 dvds at a time a number of times and it works great.

I did read the Advanced Reference, but still don't know how to do it. Maybe I'm a little stupid on this...Could you please walk me thru it. Many thanks for all your help.

mr. Bass please help me with this.

You know how to do one movie I assume. What you do, instead of "rip and convert" when you do a signle movie, you select "rip only", this will pop up a dialog box for you to specify a directory for this particular movie, it then takes 30m or so to rip the movie to the hard drive. You then do the same for the next movie, remember to select "rip only".

Next step, go to the "c:\program files\dvd2svcd" or where ever you install dvd2svcd, there should be a dvd2svcdbatch.bat file there, take a quick look, remove what ever you dont need, then run it. This batch file is basically contains command lines for each of the movies you rip above, one line each. When you execute, it then starts up dvd2svcd and encode one movie after another into their own directory, which you specified before. Hope this helps.

it's pretty simple...I just threw in tips and stuff.
@ECHO OFF

"C:\DVD2SVCD\DVD2SVCD.exe" -d2s:"H:\eiga\titan.a.e\source\dvd2svcd project file.d2s" -run -exit

I just did that 4 movies at a time....Rip only saves the parameters/settings which you select for that paticular movie. Edit your batch file by either rem it out if you wish to do a movie later or if it's already been done. Remember it's your responsibility to maintain the batch file. The program will not do it for you..only append to it.
