How to make a mixed DVD

[Baldrick]

can you import other mpg files?

[stano]

yes
why
where can i get them

I don't mean to be a bug

[stano]

can you post a site

[iqwertyi]

Baldrick,

So if after I clip the scenes I want with DVDShrink, I should go to DVD Author and try to do the menu's. If DVD Author finds the video and audio files, I should not need to run them through rejig prior?

Did I get that right?

[stano]

Baldrick,
Anything help on that mpeg decoder

REjig is OUT for me....it crashes on me. I've been having some weird computer "goings on" recently so that may be my problem. Looks like I'm back to square one. I'll either be placing chapter markers in my RW disc with my Philips Recorder or using the "title devide" option. Hopefully that will solve my TMPGEnc DVD Author/DVD Shrink/ Philips created disc audio problem once and for all.
Of course that will eliminate the need for DVD Shrink too....Hmmm.

hech: you could test some old rejig version.

Hi Baldrick,
I want to collect all my favourite songs from different DVDs, put them together anh burn into one DVD-R.
I used your guide to do it. Firstly, I use DVD Shrink to rip 3 songs (just for a test) from different DVDs into 3 different folder. Because I don't need any menus, so I skip the steps using Rejig and Tmpgenc.
Then I used DVD Shrink, re-author them again and put them into one folder, then burn it. But, when I put the disc into my DVD player ( I also tried different players too), I just could watch the first song, I tried to use the forward button, but it just repeat to play the first song again and again, I coud not watch the 2nd and the 3rd.
Could you please help me to solve this problem. Thanks a lot.

You must press the next track button, or try press a number on the remote.

Hi Baldrick,
Thanks for your reply. I press the next track button, also try using a number on the remote. It doesn't work. I wil try to rip, re-author and burn them again, exactly what you said in your guide, hopefully, it works.

Hi Baldrick,
I've done it. But this time I did different way, I still used DVD Shrink to rip songs and re-author them. I didn'n use Nero to burn them ( I failed many times, I received message : Burn Error Message. Could not perform end of Disc-At-One), but using Instant Copy to burn them and IT WORKS !!!
Thanks a lot for your help.

Baldrick, thanks for the guide. Since I only wanted to extract a few scenes from a single movie, I just used DVDShrink because I didn't need menus. I wrote the files through Nero to a +RW to test the results. When I play the disc back, there is a short audio silence when it goes to the next track, as well as image pause. Is there a way to eliminate that and make it flow continuously? Should I use something else other than Nero?

Hey Baldrick. Thanks for the guide but I still get the problem of "The combined bitrate o the clip exceeds the upper limit for a standard DVD." I ignore it but the output results in a clip that will play for a second then freeze.

Thanks if you can help.

Bump this thread because I have the same problem.

[rcnowak]

I'm trying to put together a dvd containing short video clips from other dvds. I'm able to use dvdshrink to capture (rip I think is correct term) the clips that I want and store them in folders on my hard drive. These clips all play fine using programs such as Windows Media player. When I try to assemble and edit my new dvd, using HP DVD or Roxio, I'm able to put the video clips in, but there is no audio. I've tried the recommendation in "How to make a mixed DVD" and only select AC3, still no luck. I would like to understand how I could get these clips into my editor like HP DVD or Roxio with the audio included. Thanks.

[Baldrick]

i don't think roxio supports ac3...get something better...tda!

hi,Baldrick. Two years is enough or can i revive this thread?
Ok, i have two movies and i use CONVERTXTODVD to convert avis in vobs,ifos,etc and burn.Is it possible using your guide to join them and burn in one dvd,with or without menus?
I´m asking this because that program is fantastic (sometimes don´t know why,forgets to put my subtitles), but using one dvd disk to burn a 2gb movie is a wasting of space.

[encman]

thank you for your help and being so fast answering me!

[ricardouk]

Hi encman!
Altough >Convertxtodvd is easy to use i find its output quality not that good, for converting several avis in to one dvd i recomend DIKO it will take your avis and subtitles and author a dvd with menus, and im not talking about basic menus like Convertxtodvd does.

heres a guide in flash,

[encman]

I´ll try that too! i was using SANTA but it´s a little strange , even with codecs updated,etc, i still crashes, and stop encoding,forgets to load the subtitles, but anyway obrigado your help!

[ricardouk]

i forgot to mention that to get menus you need to buy the Gold version, the free version doesnt support menus

[ricardouk]

if yoyu wanna go the freeware way i recomend this:

1- Use quenc and the videohelp.com bitrate calculator to convert the avi's to dvd.
2. use Dvdstyler or dvd author gui or gui for dvdauthor to author the videos produced by quenc and your subs with some nice menus

Boa sorte

I hope this hasn't been answered, so sorry if it has...
So I want to make a MAJOR mixed dvd to test out my new projector. Problem is I have over 100 files riped via DVD shrink and I need to find a way to either Mix all the VOB's into one Ultimate VOB or find some way for the disk to play.
It seems that really short files (couple of seconds) don't play.
Is there a more practical way to pull this off without having to re-rip the video.

Cheers
