AVI to Mpeg ....correct resolution

[razzcal]

Im trying to convert an avi to mpeg so I can place multiple files on a dvd with chapters..

I used DVD2SVCD which did it nice and did not make the new file 2 large, the problem is that when i try to author it with TMPGEnc DVD author I get an error regarding video resolution 480 x 480 is not for a dvd....How would I be able to adust the res to 352 x 240 or 352 x 480...Im using TMPGEnc through DVD2SVCD to convert.


Any help would be appreciated.

DVD2SVCD works great for creating SVCD's from divx as you know, but for creating DVD compliant mpeg's from AVI I'd use the DVD profile in TMPGenc and use a WAV file as your audio source.

In dvd2svcd click on the frameserver tab and check edit part of video encoding so when the audio portion is done and its about to go into encode mode a avisynth box appears and change 480x480 to 352x480 and click on save and then ok and in the audio tab uncheck audio downsample 48>44.1

In DVD2SVCD, simply select the Misc tab and ensure that DVD2SVCD Level is set to Advanced. Then click the frameserver tab, select a resize method (I suggest BicubicResize) and you should now see a 'Resize to' option. For DVD compliance select either CVD or DVD options.

The two methods are mtually exclusive, use one or the other.

The advantage of my method is that you can set everything up at the start, no manual intervention required part way throught the process, albeit early on.
