How to create the languege selection menu?

[ss213]

Hey, I have an .avi with 2 audios (dual) and I wanted to pass it to a dvd-video (to watch it in a regular dvd player), for what I usually use NERO. The thing is that I want to create a menu where you can select the audio. How do I do that?

Thanks!

I think TDA and TAW will create the menu page for you and you just have to rename them from Audio1 Audio2 to English Spanish or whatever the language is? I haven't used these apps in a while so maybe someone else can confirm this. Or you can download the trial and try it.

DVDFlick can also do this.

DVDFlick can also do this.

Thanks, It worked great. I'll later try TAW, when I find a non trial version.

I also wanted to ask something about dvd-video created out of avi files. If we have a 1.4 GB avi file and we use it to create a DVD-video, is there quality lose for the dvd? (considering we want to burn it in a 4,3 DVD)

Probably. It will vary form AVI to AVI depending on the running time, resolution and bitrate of the source, the encoder used to convert it for DVD, and other factors. There is no absolute yes or No answer. As a general rule though, encoding from one lossy format to another will incur a loss to some degree, and anything else you have to do to it (resizing etc) will increase the loss. Sometimes it will be visible, sometimes it won't. In the case of Xvid/Divx material what it usually does is expose the shortcoming of the original encoding, making macro-blocks and other compression issues that were already there, but perhaps not so visible on your monitor, more obvious - especially when played back on a TV.
