Newbie: MOV to DVD encoding errors-Frame data under-runs

[duncanc]

javascript:emoticon('')Hi

I have tried to encode a 2 minute MOV file (from iTunes) to DVD using the ffmpegx 0.0.9s preset. I get the following process information. How can I overcome this failure?

Try if does improve by encoding with "DVD mpeg2enc" preset, or by encoding using mp2 audio (stereo, 224kbps) instead of ac3 audio.

Thanks Major.

Using mov to DVD (ffmpeg) and changing the audio codec to .mp2 and setting the audio parameters to 224 kbps/stereo I got this error message and stopped the encoding (same as before).

[mpeg2video @ 0x381324]rc buffer underflow

I was able to successfully encode using DVD(mpeg2enc) however it took a lot longer (and I am already going slow with my 400mhz G3-DV). The pixellation I saw on the Mac was not visible on my TV except when paused.

Q. what is the audio format in a .mov file? Do I need to re-encode it with FFmpegX in order to create a DVD?

Q. iMovie can export QTDV. Is this a better file format than .mov for encoding with FFmpegX? The .DV is 6 times the size of the .mov.

Q. In both the video and audio windows of FFmpegX there are Presets and other parameters, which ones do I change? i.e. with the AC3 audio codec can I have AC3 stereo??

Q. As a general question to anybody - what is the best way to take my mini-DV camera footage, edit it with iMovie, creat a DVD with menus, and burn it to DVD with Toast 6 Titanium?

Q. what is the audio format in a .mov file? Do I need to re-encode it with FFmpegX in order to create a DVD?

The audio format in a MOV file can be any format. When you encode to DVD it is always converted to AC3 or to MP2.

Q. iMovie can export QTDV. Is this a better file format than .mov for encoding with FFmpegX? The .DV is 6 times the size of the .mov.

A deinterlaced format would be better. You may try MJPEG A.

Q. In both the video and audio windows of FFmpegX there are Presets and other parameters, which ones do I change? i.e. with the AC3 audio codec can I have AC3 stereo??

It depends on what you need. Yes if you want AC3 stereo you can set it.

Use iDVD?

[duncanc]

iDVD - No superdrive!!

[cadet]

i dont have a superdrive either, but i still use idvd for creating dvds when im in a hurry and dont want to fuss with it, what i do is just drop the mov/mp4/dv whatever into idvd and then create a burnable disc image of my dvd (.img) and then burn that.
