Rempeg is blocky Need another solution!

[TooHuge]

I have used rempeg on a few dvd's and it works great. On one certain movie it produces very blocky image. I have read that it is because of interlaced video at the begining of it or something. Well I need to use a differant encoder then I guess. I want to keep original menu's and just down size the movie a little. I also dont want to use dvd2avi as it takes away dolby digital. If ya have any info that could help me that would be great.

Thanks.

PS. Please dont tell me to not keep the original menu, as I want it all intact. Also please dont tell me to just read the guides, because I have and there is not one that covers this.

DVD2AVI doesn't take away the dolby digital. You can demux the AC3 sound tracks with it.

If need to transcode the video and keep the original menus, then you have to use ReMPEG2. IFOEDIT will only remux properly with ReMPEG2 files. You can try to strip the interlaced parts of the movie out before transcoding, but thats a bit of work. Search the forums for Warner Brothers, as all of there movies have the WB interlaced logo at the beginning and cause this problem for many people.

The other popular options are to use TMPGEnc or CCE, but this will require you to re-author the DVD and recreate the menus (lots of work). Good luck!
