It depends on what type of tool you are using for your encoding. In TMPGEnc, you have to set each "project" then you can add it into a batch processing. Do a search on Batch encoding, you find TONS of hits.

just this once. . .

Batch encoding can mean several things, but for me,
Batch 1:
--------
* settings/advanced/[x]SourceRange
find your "fight" scene, mark with "startFrame" and "endFrame"
buttons, OK, OK
* Output file name: "fight.mpg"
* now press ctrl+S and save it

Batch 2:
--------
* settings/advanced/[x]SourceRange
find your "love making" scene, mark with "startFrame" and "endFrame"
buttons, OK, OK
* Output file name: "love making.mpg"
* now press ctrl+S and save it

Batch 3:
--------
* settings/advanced/[x]SourceRange
find your "crying" scene, mark with "startFrame" and "endFrame"
buttons, OK, OK
* Output file name: "crying.mpg"
* now press ctrl+S and save it

Next,
* ctrl+B
* clcik Add button
* select (or multi select) your .tpr files
* click Run button

That's BATCH encoding for me.

No need to cut commercials. To time consuming!
You'll figure it all out sooner or later.
