Here is what you need:
- Avisynth
- Gspot
- HC018
- ffmpeggui03
- Gui for dvdauthor (borax (the author of this tool) helped me a lot on my actual DVD before I can write this guide, so please donate him if you can make use of my guide)
- A burning software that can burn a ‘Video_TS’ file (I’m using Nero Vision 7)
Steps’ summary:
Step 1: Get your files’ information
Step 2: Write a Avisynth script for the avi files
Step 3: Encode avi-->m2v using Hcgui in HC018 folder
Step 4: Extract the audio file (mp2) from your avi file
Step 5: Creating Main Menu
Step 6: Submenu for Subtile Selection
Step 7: Submenu for Chapters Seleciton
Step 8: Creating and Burning your DVD
Step 1: Get your files’information
Open Gspot then File-->Open-->Choose your avi file and record the frame rate down.(we are doing multiple avi files so do it twice or 3 times depending on how many avi file you want to add, in this case I’m doing 2 avi files)
Step 2: Write a Avisynth script
-Open Notepad (Start-->Program-->Accessories-->Notepad) to write and Avisynth script so we can open it in HC018 a.k.a HC_Encoder (HC018 is a software that can’t open an avi file directly)
-Copy this into your notepad:
Code: Select all
DirectShowSource("C:\ Somemovies.avi", fps=25).LanczosResize(640,480)
AddBorders(40,16,40,16)
KillAudio()-Do the same thing with your second avi file, except that now you have to change the name.
-Explaination:
---"C:\ Somemovies.avi"<-- file your onw path to your files, don’t copy mine.
--- fps=25<--this also, don’t copy mine, this is what you just recorded (frame rate) from Gspot (step 1).
---LanczosResize<--this is command to resize the resolution (640 in width and 480 in height)
---AddBorders<this>m2v using Hcgui in HC018 folder
Open HCgui_018.exe in the HC018
1. Open your avs file
2. Choose the name for your out put file, to make it compatible and easy to remember, I choose the same name again (‘Some movie 1’)
3. I’m doing NTSC DVD so I choose 4:3
4. Ingore this error message because it’s just a warning (not important in this case)
5. Click Encode
6. Do the same thing with your second avs file (of course, have to change the output name)
