ffxmpegx problem, please help!

[FatFreeVW]

The problem is I have TWO .mpg files extracted from the .bin SVCD.

Well if I mux those two together and try the SVCD>DVD feature, it barfs saying its not reconginzable.


HOWEVER, I can do one @ a time, and it creates the authored VOB files just fine.

But then I am left with duplicate file names. and two seperate parts to the movie in different directories. Can i just rename the second discs VOB files? And if so, to what?

Thanks

I am a rookie at this but if you have dvd2one then you should be able to do the join function.

DVD2oneX only works with valid DVD Files, as far as I know.

When you say you have 2 mpegs is it one from each SVCD disc? If you're trying to MUX them then it's no surprise that ffmpegX wont let you do it.

If it was me I'd probably try processing each mpeg seperately (with ffmpegX on high bit dvd preset), keep the demuxed mpegs from ffmpegX but do NOT post-process as a DVD with ffmpegX, then use sizzle to author a new video_ts folder with 2 chapters (add more if you like).

tried it, but sizzle wont sync the audo up correctly because its @ 48k now instead of 44.1k including .1 because it says it doesnt have a VALID DVD NAS(or NAV) so i cant even try it in that.

I understand that. The reason why I suggested it was because he did say he could get vob's. DVD2one will let you join vob's.

I don't really understand what you're saying. Have you run your svcd mpegs through ffmpegx DVD preset or not? Your audio is supposed to be 48k, so that's not the problem. I've never run into a nas of nav problem in sizzle so can't help you there. (Sorry but you need to post clearer questions)

try this...

join the two into one large mpeg file
demux this large one, remux it

now demux it again, and import it into sizzle

... and tell me the results

To define it

I have this

one.mpg
two.mpg both are 480x480 in 44.1khz(svcd format)

if i mux the two together i get joined.mpg

when I run SVCD > DVD option, the joined mpg's audio is converted to 48khz(which also makes it faster by a slight bit) and the audio doesnt sync up with the video

well if you run the SVCD > DVD command, it is supposed to change the header on the .m2v file to think its a valid DVD format(357(ithink)x480)
Then ffmpegx recodes the audio, and is supposed to slow it down automatically to be in sync, but it doesnt so they never sync up.

Sizzle has the same problem.

now, to MACMODERATOR(sorry forgot exact name) you want me to start that procedure with the re ecnoded .mpgs with 48k sound already? Or do that with the .mpg SVCD files?

Thanks

Are you trying to make a DVD, or are you trying to put 480x480 SVCD onto a DVD?

Hi, im glalactica

Most dvd players can handle 44.1Khz for audio, so typically the audio conversion is not needed!

Id suggest visiting my webpage for the SVCD to DVD since this tutorial is what you want [minus the extract .mpeg from .bin since you already have .mpeg]

Sorry... your vocab is a little off, you say you mux both clip1 and clip2 together to get one large clip3... when in fact you are JOINING not MUXING Mux means put .m2v and .mp2 together to form .mpeg.

any ways.... im saying this...
take your clip1 and clip2 and JOIN them together to make one large clip3

Now, take clip three and DEMUX [un mux them into .m1v or .m2v and .mp2] Now REMUX them to get a new clip4

take clip4 and DEMUX it again into its components .m1v and .mp2
this double step is done to remove time coding errors on the join process.

now open sizzle, import a title and choose your clip4.m1v. Add the .mp2 audio to it and then have sizzle comile your DVD image.

Sync should be right on. Most dvd players these days dont care about it not being .mv2 and the audio being 44.1hz and should play this movie straight up!

if it doesnt..... you can change the audio to 48khz [as seen in my turoral] and proceed with sizzle using the 48khz audio file

[FatFreeVW]

nope, tried it, still doesnt sync up. It plays, which wasnt the problem(though it would be nice to play it in an xbox, because if it plays in an xbox it will play in just about everything) the audio is still a little bit behind, but thanks anyways.


I just figure it cant be done...

sorry... i have yet to have sync not line up in this process....

probably something wrong with the input file....

bummer

[FatFreeVW]

even though its sycned in the 44k just fine?

[galactica]

if it synced fine with 44khz then use that. Most dvd players can handle audio at that range anyways.

How do I make the REMUX in ffmpegX?
