DVD authoring issues, no clue where to start

[JamesB69]

Ok I took a Divx and made an AC3 and a m2v file.
The m2v is 23.976 with 3:2 puldown when playback, CBR 4200. I have read the guides and tried everything to get a DVD from this but no luck.

What I want to do is when i play the dvd, view FBI warning, go to menu, select play movie, see studio trailer, see thx trailer, then to chaper 1 of movie.

I would like the menu to be a picture that i already have with a mp3 playing. (What sound format does the mp3 need to be changed to?)

I have no clue how to get the FBI warning off of a DVD but i would like to use it if at all posible. I also know which VOB's the studio trailer and thx trailer are in and decrypted them using DVD decrypt. It gave me two vob's and two ifo's.

I know the frame numbers and times of the chapters i want. I tried ifo edit but it completely messed up the timing of the chapters and the movie for some reason.

I also tried DVD movie factory 2 but was unsuccessful in importing the VOB from IFOedit.

Any help would be appreciated as all software i have spit me out errors or crap. The guides on the site are mostly useless as i have ac3 sound and 3:2 pulldown flag which i have read messes stuff up. it is a 16:9 DAR flag if that makes a difference (i beleive they call it anamorphic).

Thanks

nobody? 60 views no answers. somebody could at least point me to some software that works with ac3 and i am sure somebody knows how to get the trailers that i mentioned to work.

DVD workshop will accept AC3 audio as long as it is muxed with the M2V video file. Use TMPGEnc to mux the M2V and AC3, you will then have an mpg file that DVD workshop will accept.

8) Hi, I use IFOedit to create the VIDEO_TS folder that you need in order to burn to DVD. Open IFOedit and select "DVD Author" and then "Author new DVD". This will bring up a new Window. In Video select your m2v file and in Audio select your Ac3 file. I create a VIDEO_TS folder on my C: drive and set the output to there. IFOedit will then create all the vob, ifo and bup files. Then I use Nero Express, select create DVD, then in the "add files" window, select the VIDEO_TS folder and burn it. Plays great on my standalone Panasonic. (I use DVD-R media). Hope this helps!

Thats great except i need 16:9 for anamorphic and it only outputs 4:3 for some strange reason.
