Re: any2dvd help

I gave up on any2dvd as it was slow. I now use two scripts, one to convert the avi to mpg and then make that into a dvd structure (I got the mencoder options from the mplayer documentation)

avi2mpg

#! /bin/bash
mencoder -quiet -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd:tsaf \
  -vf scale=720:576,harddup -srate 48000 -af lavcresample=48000 \
  -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vrc_maxrate=9800:vbitrate=5000:\
keyint=15:vstrict=0:acodec=ac3:abitrate=192:aspect=16/9 -ofps 25 \
  -o video.mpg $1 $2
rm -rf DVD
dvdauthor -x mpg2dvd.xml

and the other to burn the dvd structure.

burndvd

#!/bin/bash
growisofs -Z /dev/dvd -dvd-video DVD/

mpg2dvd.xml used by the dvdauthor command consists of

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<dvdauthor dest="DVD">
        <vmgm />
        <titleset>
                <titles>
                        <pgc>
                        <vob file="video.mpg" />
                        </pgc>
                </titles>
        </titleset>
</dvdauthor>
