authoring and time frame

[Wazzu]

I've been authoring 2 hr avi movies into dvd format for the past cpl weeks...I been compressing my avi;s then using show biz to author to dvd. The authoring process is taking about 6-7 hrsfor each 2 hr avi. This seems like an aweful long time? are their programs that will do this authoring faster?

Additionally, ive tried using tmpgenc authoring but everytime i try and load one of my avi's it says that there is no header? Anyone know what might be cau9sing that and how to resolve that issue? I've dbl checked all the settings to those that are rec in the articles on this site.

Any suggestions for a fster approach?

thanks

Ya. Convert your AVIs into .m2v and mpa files with TMPGEnc. Then have Ifo Edit convert them into DVD files and burn with Nero. 6-7 hours to burn one DVD? Sheeesh!
