How to capture analog strait to DVD legal file?

[steinkampg]

Q- Can anyone suggest how I can capture genuine DVD-legal mpeg 2s at either a CBR of 2 Mbits or 4 Mbits with audio at 48k?
Im seeking to avoid any secondary encoding or long transcoding and rendering times!

With my ATI All In Wonder Card 7500 I am limited to setting mpeg2 analog capture options of 4 Mbits CBR and only 44.1k audio no matter what. 48 k is not selectable.
>>>Hence it cannot make legal DVD files.

Im stuck using one of 2 different DVD authoring/ burining programs-
1-Sonic My DVD- The analog capture software is worthless- it stops capture when a video dropout on the VHS tape occurs
I can import from other programs BUT- if the mpeg2 files input arent
exactly made with either a CBR of 2mbits or 4 mbits w/ 48k audio the program converts it all to it's "Best" quality- which means I can only get 65
minutes on a DVD-R.
>>>So thats no good for long videos.

2- Ulead Video Studio5 - It's analog capture software is terrible- although
I can pick the correct setting for Sonic above, the audio is always out of
sync w/ the video.
I can import from other programs BUT the rendering time is 3x the length of the video and the buring time is 2x the length.
>>>Man this SO long.

At this point the best I can do is capture with the All In Wonder and let
Ulead grind out the re-encoding/rendering all night.
Unless I only want to put 65 minutes on a DVD and then Sonic is OK just for that time length.

If you are satisfied with quality of MEPG-2 you captured, that's all it matters. Audio incompliancy is very easy to correct. Just demux the audio and resample it to 48K, which many audio editors can easily do, then re-mux video and audio. Voila. You got a compliant MEPG-2 stream. Much, much faster than re-encoding and loseless in quality.
