so my problem here is that i followed the guide for usin avi2dvd to make the dvd from avi (Heat ...what a great movie) so i followed the guide to the letter (cept nuber of passes ...i put it at 9 or 10) and let it run for like 8 hrs ...and when i went to admire the quality ..which was great at fullscreen 1280x800 on this 15.x widescreen brightveiw laptop screen (lol that sounded kool huh ...i hook it up to the tv to watch dvds neway) but to my astonishment it was UPSIDE DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so anyone experienced this lil issue?

now for my usual routine (to ask more unrelated questions):
1. are these (avi2dvd and cce) the 'best' (when i say best im mostly talkin about quality as i can follow a guide ...so difficulty isnt all that important and it does it while i sleep or goto class so time isnt either) combination for encoding stuff?
2. i hear you can burn multiple avis to a dvd in a way that dvd players can read them ...is that just like makin a data dvd and the dvd (i know you gotta buy one that supports it) can play them
3. how many passes with cce is good enough that you wouldnt notice the difference of another pass?

thanks a lot pplz

Moving this to the Playback Problems forum.

I can't help with the playback issue but I'll give you some opinions on the other questions.

IMO CCE is the best MPEG-2 encoder, so whatever method I use always includes that. I've never used avi2dvd so I can't comment on that specifically.

Most people agree that the maximum number of passes where you can tell the difference is 4 (1 to create the VAF file and 3 more that create M2V or MPV files). For most video you won't see a difference after the first M2V creation pass (1 + 1 pass).

I think I misread your question (sorry I was at work at the time). It actually sounds like a decoder problem during the encode process. I'm going to move it to the MPEG encoding forum.

BTW, assuming Avi2DVD uses Avisynth to serve the video to CCE you should be able to fix this by adding this line to the AVS file it creates:

FlipVertical()

I'd put that line right after the one that opens the video file (that line probably starts with AviSource)
