burn .ogm files ?

[LiNUXG33K]

Hi -

How can I burn a ogg file to a (S)VCD via nero to play on DVD player.
Do I need to convert it to mpeg ? and if so what program will do that ?

Thanks
John

Use tmpgenc and if you get problem converting the audio check this

If you have trouble getting it to work, it might be worth setting up the audio and video extraction separately in Graphedit thus:

AUDIO
input.ogm > ogg splitter > vorbis decompressor > wav dest. > filewriter (output.wav)

VIDEO
input.ogm > ogg splitter > avi mux > filewriter (output.avi)

OK, either I am doing it wrong, or this whole ogg vorbis thing is just crazy. To the best of my understanding, it goes like this:

1) download and combine .pars,

2) extract .ogm,

3) convert .ogm to .avi

4) split avi. into two files, one .avi and one .wav

5) combine .avi and .wav files into an .mpg file

6) burn .mpg to CD-R

I tried it without splitting the .avi to .avi and .wav, and tmgenc was apparently going to spend the next 8 hours converting it to .mpg, so I stopped it. The resulting .mpg had no audio.

My question is this:

How can adding 9 or 10 hours and a considerable amount of aggravation to the process of burning a vcd that's not going to work be somehow better than the other encoding methods?

I'm with you up to stage 2. If you follow my route you will know before you start whether or not you have audio, because you can play the wav in Winamp. 8) With my method you extract a soundless avi and a wav file frrom the ogm source.

As to converting avi and wav to mpg - yes it takes time, and the better specified your PC the faster it will be. I remember converting avi to mpg on an AMD K6-400, and it could take the best part of a day with TMPGenc. Using an Athlon XP1600 it takes 2-3 hours.
