OGM convert and burn

[SPK8000LG]

Okay, I know i have to split the file up with Vdubmod. I got that down. I got 1 video, 2 audio and a sub stream(on a side note what codec is best for quality for compression on the video) Now Im a little confused about the next step. What id like to do is put about 8 eps or so on a dvd with a nice little simple munu. I love how TMPGEnc DVD Author 1.6 but i was told this wount work with the 2 audio streams Also i still have to convert the AVI file that Vdub gives me to a vob right? What do i have to do to the audio stream files that are now OGG to get them dvd ready? I dont mind shelling out 30 bucks or even 50 to get everything to work right but the 200 bucks that dvd labs pro wants is out of the question! Any help?


PS: How come Vdub wount let me compress to Divx anymore? Seems it just vanished from the compression menu?

You can convert the ogg vorbis audio directly to AC3 via ffmpeg for free.

Yeah, TMPGEnc DVD Author doesn't support multiple audio streams or subs. Not sure about the pro version. You could use a freeware authoring app to get the audio and subs, however you might have trouble with the menus.

The DVD authoring app will create the VOB's. You do however need to convert to DVD compliant MPEG2 (doesn't 100% have to be compliant).

As for DivX. Try reinstalling. Also check your registry for corrupt/empty vidc enteries.

Out of the DVD aurthor programs. Whitch is the easyist to use?

[SPK8000LG]

reinstalling them worked TY any help on the aurthring program?

Ohh and when i load up the OGM file in Vdubmod and try and pull the audio it only let me pull iy off in Demux wount let me Wav it off thus not letting me use ffmpeg to convert any ideas?

[celtic_druid]

I can't see why not. ffmpeg supports ogg vorbis so it should be able to convert directly.

[SPK8000LG]

See im using ffmpegGUI. I tault that be the same? Guess not? Cuz me with the cmd line not so good. Is there anyother program besides ffmpeg? Or maybe a re detailed guild on how to use it?

[celtic_druid]

ffmpegGUI is as the name suggests a GUI for ffmpeg. I am almost 100% positive that I have tested it with an ogg vorbis file and it worked fine. You just need to use it with an ffmpeg build that supports ogg vorbis.

The build that comes with the GUI is old. Looks like vorbis is enabled, but not ogg.

Try: http://ffdshow.faireal.net/mirror/ffmpeg/ffmpeg.2005.09.09.7z
I thought I did a newer build though? Doesn't matter, that one has libogg and vorbis enabled so it should work fine. With or without the GUI.

[SPK8000LG]

Never seen a zip liek that before. Ok i got it opened i put the Gui files in the same folder as the FFmpeg build u gave me, When i click browse it wount let me load a OGG file. So i dunno whats up? Any more ideas?

[celtic_druid]

Ahh, ok so maybe the build you were using would have worked. You have to type *.ogg or *.* then open the file.

You da man! works great DO u know of a way to this in batch mode?

[celtic_druid]

Yeah, ditch the GUI and then just use a for command. GUI really needs updating, at least to add ogg as an audio source option. Batch processing could be added at the same time.

for %%f in (*.ogg) DO (ffmpeg.exe .... etc.
process all ogg's in a given dir. Don't think libavcodec can demux ogm's though. Otherwise you could convert directly from them.

or try BatchffmpegGUI XP.
