Avi Authoring Question (TV series)

[Joeykid_99]

I'm a newbie so if this has been answered before I apologize. I've downloaded avi files of a television series, there are 20 episodes at about 50 min. each. I've converted the avi. files using VSO DivXToDVD. What I'd like to do is put five episodes each on four DVD-Rs. I'd like to create a simple menu that either lists the episode names or shows them like chapter stops. Is this possible and if so what programs steps should I use.

Thanks!

import the vobs in tmpgenc dvd author and make the menu.

TMPGEnc DVD Author > Add DVD Video. Then you can add your VIDEO_TS folders.

Thanks for the quick replies! That's exactly the program I was looking for. One thing though, it seems that the five episodes are slightly too large to fit on one DVD-R, is there a way to shrink them or do I just have to put only four on instead?

Hi

TMPGenc DVD Author as already mentioned. Put all files and click ignore "output greater than....................." in DVD author. Then use DVD Shrink(Freeware). the more episodes you put on and the more you shrink the file the greater the loss of quality. Typically 4-5 is the most i usually do but give it a try.
