Convert multiple videos to DVD formats with a few clicks

[Muiter]

Is there a program that allows me to convert multiple smaal videos to DVD format with only a few clicks instead of doing them one by one.
Now I'm using different programs to create my DVD's but wiht none of them I can convert multiple files.

Thanks for your help!

Sure use TMPEnc. It has a batch function. When you start it up go thru the wizard and choose your settings. At the end (Project Wizard 5/5) select the checkbox "Create anther project for batch encoding." Then go thru the project wizard agin add the next file and repeat. When you are done cancel out of the wizard and it will pop up the batch encode window for all the projects you created. Alternately you can choose "File" then "Batch encode" and the batch window will also come up. There is also a way to do batch encodes with dvd2svcd BUT thats far more complicated.

I know there is a batch function but I have to do the same steps for every video and I don't want to do that because there are to many videos I want to convert. I want to select a lot of videos and then convert them at the same time with the same settings.

me too.

As soon as you find a program that can do that for you, let me know.

Using TMPGEnc batch, you will be using all of the same settings, etc. If you save your settings as a template, this template will be automatically selected as the default when you go to create a new batch encoding project. Honestly, if it takes you 30 seconds to set up each file I would be surprised.

I know but I want to select multiple files at once.

You lazy bastard
Seriously, I'm sorry dude. I don't know of any program that will do exactly what you wish it to do.

I want to convert possible a few hundred small videos. If a program like TMPGEnc can select one file why not multiple files

you could always set up a DOS batch file and use commandline args to control TMPGEnc. You would need to save your project with generic names, such as audio and video input is "input.mpg" and your output file is "output.mpg".

I would use the following code for each movie:


Copy <inputfile> input.mpg
tmpgenc <template> /encode /close
copy output.mpg <movieno>.mpg


It will take a little while to set up but it will do what you want. I have VB set up and would write a For Loop to generate this batch file automatically.

tmpgenc dvd source creator will do it for you
