AVI to DVD with soft subtitle and menu with AVI2DVD

[olo]

HI!
I have a problem with converting film form .avi to VCD or DVD.
After video converting and audio converting , there is a warning[like in the picture] AudioStream 1 MP3 2CH was not found.
I tried to change bitrate and encoders, but it gives no effects.
What else can I do to convert this file?

Hi. Great article! I follow all the instruction given but this error came up. Any idea why?

[kschang]

You didn't have the right codec installed. How did you play the AVI?

In general, that means you have 1) run out of space on the HD, or 2) you didn't rename the AVI to get rid of extra punctuation and spaces.

this is the message that appears when I do this tutorial. It's the same as the message that someone else got, but they fixed their problem on their own and their notes weren't very clear. Could you help me?

[kschang]

Well, reading the log says SPUMUX has failed and dumped a 0 byte output, so I'd look there. It sounds like you already got your video and audio files. I'd just skip AVI2DVD for now, and use DVDAuthorGUI to input the video, audio, and subtitles, and make it generate the VIDEO_TS folder with the appropriate IFO and VOB files. I know it's not fixing the AVI2DVD output, but I want you to have something to show first. SPUMUX is known to have a few glitches, at least in my experience.

[crossmr]

Hrm. I followed this guide and ran in to an issue. My movie is 2 parts, with 2 part subtitles. I've watched the movie a couple times, the subtitles are timed properly. On the second part of the movie though (which it joined up nice) the subtitles are now way off.

It took about 5 hours for the process to complete so I'm a bit disappointed. Any thoughts on what I can do to fix that so my next 5 hour attempt isn't in vain?

[aryot]

I get an error message when it comes to using QuEnc for locating AviSynth which says "AiSynth open failure. AVI source: couldn't locate a decompressor for fourcc XVID"
Can anyone tell me what the problem is and how to overcome this??

Thanks a lot

[ketchub]

Hi guys, what a great guide 8)

I followed every single step in the guide BUT the final compilation doesn't have the subtitle I chosed Even after using IfoEdit, still the subtitle option in the DVD menu is disabled! Any help please

BTW, my aim is to convert AVI to DVD with subtitle option, so if you have any other solution even if its not free; please don't hesitate :P

Cheers,

How do i add more than 1 movie?

[littleberry]

I was trying to convert a DIVX movie ("The Man Who Planted Trees - 30 minutes) so I could make a DVD, but, after it created the mp3 file (which played OK in winamp), it said "could not execture job", during the phase "converting mp3-ac3".

Is this the wrong tool for making mpeg (or VOB) from DIVX?

It plays on the computer (windows 98se) on both the DIVX player AND windwos media player just fine, but, I need it on a disc.

Thanks, littleberry

Avi2Dvd is good and easy to use. Everything works fine, but I have one problem. It changes video resolution. For example, the original is 588x244, and Avi2Dvd changes it to 588x322. The result is thin and tall people. I hope you understand what I mean. If it's important, I use pal system and I convert from NTSC if I have to. Thanks

Hi there.

I was wondering can somebody help me Avi2DVD?

I just moved to Canada from Europe. While in my old PC (back in Europe) I had TV Out, in my current PC I dont. So im forced to burn some of my AVI files to DVD in order to watch them.

I was trying the software but it looks like the video is playing far to fast and then the voice is left behind. What can it be?

I tried to play it first in my HDD with PowerDVD software. In folder that was created from output i have ISO file (771.124kb) and AC3 file (120.390kb)

Another thing is that in Step 2 (Output) Convertion PAL to NTSC i disabled, I have only NTSC to PAL (Im going to play this DVD in Canada)

With GSpot Software it says that Codec Are installed.

I look forward to hear from anyone

Thanks in advance

Regards

Hello!

great instructions, thanks a lot!

I'm having a problmem which I cannot deal with... I do everything as written in the instruction, but after demuxing and encoding the audio from mp3 to ac3, th software just wouldnt proceed with the job....It says that the "Job is NOT finished, check the log file"...

Any ideas with which you could help me?

thx

A.

[mats.hogberg]

It says that the "Job is NOT finished, check the log file"...

Well, what did the log file say?

hehe .. just about the same...

1 byte seems a little high compression... or is it -1 byte?
Anyway, there seems to be something wrong with the mp3 to AC3 conversion.
One thing is the ü and ö inte directory name - may cause problems for some apps perhaps?
If not, I'd say there's something wrong with the source audio.

/Mats

[218]

dammit....I should get a huge L tattoed on my forehead....You were right with the ö and ü thing... Its OK that as a Hungarian i wouldnt think of the ö and ü as weird characters, but I had to remove weird chars like ( and ) from the filename of the avi, and from that I shouldve thought abt the dir name.Anyway thanks a lot!

[mats.hogberg]

Ö is not uncommon is Sweden too, but as a general rule, I try to avoid any characters > ASCII 127 in folder/file names. As well as stick to 8.3 file names.

can it input more than one AVI file?

[kschang]

I get an error message when it comes to using QuEnc for locating AviSynth which says "AiSynth open failure. AVI source: couldn't locate a decompressor for fourcc XVID"
Can anyone tell me what the problem is and how to overcome this??

Yes, install the XVID codec and/or FFDShow (which also handles XVID decoding, and a lot more)

[kschang]

Hey I have another question. Sorry but any idea why I didn't receive the dvd image that was converted from my avi file?

Uh, you didn't upload the pic, so I can't see a thing...

Any thoughts on what I can do to fix that so my next 5 hour attempt isn't in vain?

Well, did you check if the part 2 subtitles actually match up with part 2 of AVI?

In my experience sometimes Part 2 of AVI actually repeat a few seconds of the scene from part 1 for continuity, thus completely messes up the subtitle if not checked and corrected.

I personally would NOT rely on the auto-join. I'd join the AVIs myself, join the subtitles myself (it's just text files, open them with notepad and do cut-and-paste), then feed the unified file to AVI2DVD. AFTER testing it, of course.
