Edit in virtualdub, save as dvd mpeg2? Not sure where to post..

[Teitoku]

Here's the story: I've transferred an old VHS to my pc. I cleaned it up in virtualdub, and would now like to put it on DVD. It seems though that no virtualdub version can actually save as mpeg2. What's the solution here?

Feed it to an encoder, such as QuEnc, HcEnc, and so on.

[ZippyP.]

Frameserve to an encoder like TMPGEnc.

Gotcha, thanks dudes.

edit: Ooooh, I hope tmpgenc doesn't keep doing what it used to do and get the a/v totally out of sync.

[Teitoku]

Alright...hmm. No workie. I've started the frameserver, saved the "avi" onto my desktop, and tried to load it into tmpgenc. Quoth the TMPGenc, "File can not open, or is unsupported."

What?

Did you use this guide for frameserving or similar? https://www.videohelp.com/virtualdubframeserve.htm

What AVI audio and video format did you capture it to with VirtualDub? It may be incompatible with TMPGEnc. For TMPGEnc problems, look here: https://www.videohelp.com/tmpgenc.htm#problems

For the audio, I usually save that out as a WAV in VirtualDub after editing or filtering the video and use ffmpeggui to encode the audio to AC3, then add it in later when authoring. That solves most 'out of sync' problems. Then all you need to encode is the video.
