Converting karaoke title to SVCD

[Paule]

Anyone with experience in karaoke edit/backup please help!!!!
What I want to is to cut/edit/join different chapters from different unencripted karaoke titles to make a new title. How do I reserve the two original audio streams (vocal and lyric)? I am using dvd2avi and tmpgenc to converse then encode from vob files to SVCD. I don’t know how to extract both audio channels at the same time.

Hi Paul,

I'm do samething. Here is what I did:

.SmartRipper to rip DVD into chapters (select all chapters and check on create chapters)
.DVD2AVI 2 times, each time you select a desired audio track (You can't extract multiple audio files using DVD2AVI, maybe drop the author an email for requesting this feature :]). You can save them in the same .d2v file, the audio will have T01 and T02 (for track 1 and track 2) within it so you have 2 separate wave files anyway.
.tooLame (2h) to convert wave files into .mp2
.TMPGEnc to encode the .d2v into .m2v (video only)
.bbMPEG to mux .m2v and 2 .mp2 into one mpg (SVCD)
.Burn with Nero 5.5

The softwares and setups are available within vcdhelp.com under the navigation menu on the left. BTW, I found that the picture was not so good (as my expectation) for this method, I'm trying to convert the d2v into .avi and decoded later into .m2v. I'm having trouble with bbMPEG and asking for help from Brent, the author.

Have fun and good luck. Let me know how it comes out

Hi Bachkhoa,
Thanks you for your help. The did almost the same except not using smartripper since my dvd titles are not encripted. I extract audio 1 and 2 but to find out that they're the same (both vocal). Does it happen to you like this? I think i am doing something wrong here. I will try you method tomorrow see if it work. BTW I encode them back to DVD compliant so the video result looks very good for my standard.
