dvd2svcd problem?

[Rud]

ok, i use dvd2svcd to convert avi movies to dvd files (using TMPGEnc as the encoder) but it doesnt work for mpeg movie files, is there any possible way to do it?

i like using dvd2svcd because its good quality conversion even if it does take hours to do =)

are the mpegs dvd complaint? then just author them no need to convert anything.

you can use avicodec to identify mpegs.

it came out as:

C

File : 438 MB (432 MB), duration: 0:43:59, type: MPG, 1 audio stream(s), quality: 48 %
Video : 361 MB, 1150 Kbps, 25.0 fps, 352*288 (4:3), MPG1 = MPEG 1 (VCD), Supported
Audio : 70 MB, 224 Kbps, 44100 Hz, 2 channels, 0x51 = Mpeg-1 audio Layer 2 [0xc0], Supported

if that helps =)

tmpgenc dvd author! just add the mpgs and it will convert the audio to dvd compliant(48khz) and make an optional menu, author and burn.

or dvd-lab or svcd2dvd.
