Take it one step at a time. There are only 3 steps.
1. Convert AVI to DVD compatible MPG
2. Author DVD with menu and subs - ISO
3. Burn ISO file
I'm not sure where you're stuck. If you have an audio error, then check the FAQ at the end of the tutorial. The main FAQ on the web site also has info about audio errors. If you have an MPG file, you're done with step 1. The MPG file has both audio and video. Next you need to author the MPG to DVD. This will create an ISO file for burning. This ISO file has the .vob files inside it.

Yes it shuts down the computer when finished if you check that box. I don't think it works for other files besides AVIs. Tmpg might have the ability to convert some other files. I'm not sure. You can get around it though by converting the WMV file to AVI.

First of all, thanks for this great tutorial! I really appreciate all of your hard work in making it. Now, my problem is this: I set everything up in DVD2svcd, and I press "Go!" and it tells me that I MUST use Cinema Craft Encoder and then just speeds through and I think I get some sort of weird file at the end. I do have TMPGEnc and have it all set up for that, but the program doesn't seem to like it. Any insight would be helpful...thanks!

This is strange because I know it works with TmpgEnc. Make sure that in your "Encoder" tab you have "TMPegEnc" checked and the path points to the TMPGEnc.exe file. I can see that your path points to something on your desktop. I would think it should point to the exe in your "Program Files" directory. I am also surprised that it is asking for Cinemecraft Encoder. If you are still having problems, I'd like to see the screenshot of the error.

I think this is pretty common, so I will add it to the FAQ. It almost always means 1 of 2 things. You don't have the correct codec, or you did not put in the proper frameserve parameters. Check to see if you can play the video in Windows Media Player and/or load it into GSpot to make sure you have the codec. If you have the codec, then your frameserve parameters probably are not correct. Make sure you copied them from FitCD properly. You should always check the video before started the process. You can do this by going to the "Conversion" tab, and clicking "GO / Preview Video".

I forgot about the DVD2SVCD log file. This definitely helps in tracking down problems.
You are not pointing to the correct location of your TMPGEnc executable. It looks like you are having the same problem as Athaclena42.
I don't know what this file "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\engine1.tbe" is, but check the "Encoder" tab. Where it says "TmpgEnc x.xx.xx", it should have the full path to your TMPEnc exe file. It should be something like "C:\Program Files\Pegasys Inc\TmpgEnc\TmpgEnc.exe"

| Quote: | | But it takes a lot of time to encode right? like 2 to 3 hourS? |
The time it takes depends on many things. There are several settings in TMPEnc and it depends on your computer speed. The better the quality that you want, the longer it will take. If you want to see the differences in quality, then you can try experiments with a short AVI on different settings. You can view the MPGs in Windows Media Player to see if you notce a difference. If you use the "higest quality" setting in TMPGEnc, it will probably take over 3 hours for each AVI.
| Quote: | | Then I just have to use the dvdgui to put the menu and creat .vob? |
It depends on how many AVIs you are putting on the DVD. You will first have to encode all the AVIs that you want on the first DVD. Once you have all the MPGs for the DVD, then you put them into DvdAuthorGui. Also you don't want only the .vob file. You want to burn the ISO file. Inside the ISO file, there are TS_AUDIO and TS_VIDEO directories. Inside these directories are the .vob files. Keep in mind there are some good DvdAuthor tools that are easier to use than DvdAuthorGui, but they are not free. You can check videohelp.com for a list. TMPGEncDvdAuthor is a very good one, but it does not support soft subs.

In terms of quality, TMPEnc and Cinema craft encoder are about the same if you put them both on the highest quality settings. CCE is a bit faster for encoding though so I'd go with that and use 4 or 5 pass VBR.
| Quote: | | I really wanna quality on the files in first place, so 3 episodes is enought right? |
A lot of the Jdoramas are 10 episode series with the first and last episode 1 hour and the rest are 45 minutes. So for those I make 3 DVDs with 3 episodes, 4 episodes, and 3 episodes. The Kdramas are usually an hour long for all episodes, so I will put 3 episodes on each disc. I try and stick with about 3 hours per DVD.

I didn't get mpg at the end of the conversion i got a mp2 and an mvp is that still okay to use to write ISO files using authorDvdgui? Is it the same method as before or are there any adjustments to the method that i should know about?
Thanks for all your Help,
Plus this tutorial is very easy to follow and great with the pics it helps a lot

| Thanks to kyuuketsuki for that awsome tutorial but if your tecnically challanged (like me) or just plain lazy (like me) there is a great app out there that does everything automatically. It's been out for a while, its called VSO DivxtoDVD. It supports SRT files and just about any AVI (Divx, Xvid, etc). Also it makes a mini menu so you can select which episodes you want to watch and will automatically place chapters in the dvd to your specifications (every 5min, 10min, etc.). The quality is just awsome and you can fit approx. 4 hours of episodes per disk without noticable loss in quality (3 ep. per disk is best though). Its pretty fast too depending on your system, I have an Athlon 64 2800+ with 512MB RAM and it encodes at about 1.5x. There is a demo version out for free so try it out.

That's odd. It means your multiplexer didn't work. The DVD should work fine though. Check to make sure your mpv plus mp2 are about the size that you expect for your MPG file. (The CD size that you put into the bitrate tab). If] there is a file called "...pulldown.mpv", then you'll want to use this mpv instead of the other one. Now, just load the mpv and mp2 into DvdAuthorGui and you're set. The only drawback to the mpv file is that Windows Media Player does not play it so you can't check it for quality. Also, when you go to set the chapter stops, you have to type the time in manually instead of having DvdAuthorGui set them automatically. Besides that, everything else works the same.

Thanks. Except I see that geocities doesn't like too many people accessing the images and they limit the bandwidth, so you might want to store them locally so you can retrieve them later.

I've tried them all, but I have not found one yet that I like. None of them give the same quality and reliability as the DVDs from the steps I use. Also, I like the configurable options that DVD2SVCD has. Anyway, a few people have asked about this, so I put it at the end of the tutorial as one of the faq questions. I'm actually hoping that Pegasys Inc. comes out with something soon because TMPGEnc and TMPGDvdAuthor are 2 of the best programs I have used. They just need to combine them into 1 and add subtitle support!
