Help please re Mpeg to dvd |
|
|
Hello,
Can anyone please help. My son is forever downloading skateboard Mpegs
which take up a lot of space on the hard drive. I would like to burn them
onto a DVD disc, but I can't seem to do this. I have tried to open the
mpegs with Nero 6 and DVD shrink, but neither work. Ideally, I would like
to crate a DVD with a number of different Mpegs, perhaps with some kind of
menu. I also have Pinnacle Studio 8.
Thanks
Adrian

Since I posted this message I have tried a programme called Advanced X Video
Convertor. It breaks the mpeg down into three files:
Divx movie file
Divx Audio
M2v
There is another programme I think that I use to author and these can be
added into the TS folder and burned on Nero 6.
I have just tried to convert a 190 Mb file and it seems to be taking approx
1 and a half minutes to convert 1% of the file.
Can anyone please tell me is this the correct way to make this into a DVD
which can be played on DVD players and is this the normal time for
conversion? (2.5 hours)

If you have a software DVD Player that can show the
properties or information of what it is playing, like
"PowerDVD"; try this: right click on the M2v file and
open it with such a player. Note if it plays the video,
and how it is described in the properties/information.
If it plays the audio, what is it listed as.
After doing that move or copy the M2v file to a
different folder from the audio files, and play it again.
Note if any audio plays or not.
The m2v extension is for an elemental MPEG 2
video file/stream. Most DVD authoring programs
will accept it as the video for a DVD.
Were you may have to do a little work is with the
audio. Depending on if "Divx Audio" is a format
that an Authoring program will accept or not, you
may have to convert it.
Luck;
