help making XML file for DVDAuthor

[Delta2]

Hi,

I wish to make a XML definition file to use with DVDAuthor in order to author audio + video, but I can't find examples

here is the XML I tried :

<dvdauthor dest="F:\TEST\DVD2\">
<vmgm />
<titleset>
<titles>
<video format="pal" />
<audio lang="en" />
<subpicture lang="pt" />
<pgc>
<pre>subtitle=64;</pre>
<vob file="F:\AA_ERRO\video.mpv" chapters="00:00:00" />
</pgc>
<pgc>
<vob file="F:\AA_ERRO\audio.ac3" />
</pgc>
</titles>
</titleset>
</dvdauthor>



But I get this error :

WARN: Skipping sector, waiting for first VOBU...

WARN: Skipping sector, waiting for first VOBU...

This error usually comes up if the source video is not 'dvdauthor' compatible.

In this case it seems that you try to use elementary streams:

<vob file="F:\AA_ERRO\video.mpv" chapters="00:00:00" />
...
<vob file="F:\AA_ERRO\audio.ac3" />

This is not possible! dvdauthor has no built-in multiplexer. Either use MuxMan, or multiplex your source mpv + ac3 with mplex (commandline) and use the resulting mpg file. Or use one of the dvdauthor GUIs (GUI for dvdauthor or dvdauthorgui) as there the script for multiplexing is generated automatically.
