I am having the hardest time preparing assets for maestro..

[Ausar]

I am having the hardest time preparing assests for dvdmaestro. I have many martial arts clips that I want to burn as 1 continuous movie in maestro but I keep getting illegal resolution, or unsupported media type errors when I try to import assests. I think this is due to the fact that I haven't demuxed them and that I don't know the ???x??? resolution. To learn this, I am using just one clip which I have no idea on how to get the clips properties, I just know that its a .mpeg file about 6 min long. I tried to demux in tmpgenc, but no success. What am I doing wrong, its quite frustrating. I had no idea that creating dvds was this hard. Please explain to me in laymen's terms what to do step by step, or give me a link to a guide which explains this process clearly. I start with an .mpeg or .avi or .mpg or .asf file (audio and video together) and try to get it broken down to just .m2v (video) and ac3 (audio) for maestro. What are the steps that I must take. I'm tring not to bug my uncle about this as he is a very busy person (he uses maestro for his business). Please, please, please, any help is greatly appreciated.

ps-- I know there were a few people who tried to help me before in another post but some of it I just couldn't understand. I'm just trying to make a martial arts tournament compilation dvd.
