transcoding??

[wayned16]

ok lets just say i have a dvd ripped to my hard drive and its 5.7GB, with everything possible ripped out, so i just have the movie it self. but its still to big to fit on dvdr. but now im faced with transcoding the movie to fit on the disk. i use rempeg for this and the process is just taking to long (11-17hrs+). So my question is; is there an easier and quicker way to scale a movie down to fit it on disk?? is tmpgenc faster? but do u get audio sync problems with tmpgenc? also could u just down size the audio streams?? if so how.

any help would be most thankful.

ok here is the short fast answer. use CCE to transcode the dvd2avi project file that you framserved. then re-author the disc using scenarist. the long answer is, well it's long. doom9.org there are a few guides there on using CCE and ifoedit. but whatever you do, do not try to remux your CCE video using ifoedit, it's never going to work =)

I use REmpeg and Ifoedit to make DVD's. It takes about 5 hours for me to transcode a 2 hour movie on my XP1600 system. Rempeg and Ifoedit have never let me down and make excellent DVd's. If your system is slow and takes upto 17 hours,I would live with the time or upgrade to a faster CPU.

Hi,

what is requested here is exactly what i want to do also. I have read quite a few guides but i still dont get a few things, when it comes to re-coding.

I can only get DVD2AVI to save an avi file, for a 2 hour movie as an avi file the damn thing is so big its a joke. Im assuming "frameserving" to CCE means i dont need to make a huge avi file first? here is where the guides dont really expain....how to set up CCE and DVD2AVI to frameserve to each other. It would be great if someone could shed some light here on this for me.

Many thanks,
Blackout

thanks heaps, frameserving is a lot simpler than it sounds...i have figured it out. Basically you only save the project, not the avi. Then you load the d2v straight into Tmpgenc. It was too easy.... tho no toutorials really explain this very clearly...im going to write my own toutorial i think, and post it in this forum.

Thanks again,
