With the program "DVD2SVCD", I followed an online guide (http://www.doom9.org/mpg/dvd2svcd.htm) and I ripped my DVD to my harddrive. Here is what I have now:
I opened up Nero and used it to burn the 2 CD Image files with the .bin and .cue extensions. Everything went smooth, but what I ended up with is 2 SVCD's for one DVD, and no chapters. I want to be able to break it up into chapters and burn them seperately. Reason for this is because the DVD is a TV show series, and I would rather have the episodes divided up onto their own SVCD's, instead of all of them on 2, divided up randomly. How can I do this? THANK YOU!!!!
Im not sure if this is any help to you but what id do is id use the afterdawn guide to convert the DVD that you have just ripped into an AVI, then once you've done this you can just split it easily using VirtualDub (which, if you've followed the afterdawn guide you'll no about this prog)_. This allows you too split it into how many parts youi want, then after this you can convert the parts you have into SVCD using TMPG which is another prog available from this site that allows you to convert it to SVCD.
This is just one way, they are other ways to do all this but this is the way i would do it, hope it helps !!!!!
HawkEyez, i wouldn't do that. that means you'll be converting the video 2 times. which is bad. you compress it into mpeg4 and compress is again using the comppressed source, which will result in loss of a lot of quality. sorry if i babble.
here what i would do. i don't use DVD2SVCD but i do use most of the stuff.after demusing in DVD2AVI, i would take the frameserved .d2v file to TMPGEnc. there is a source range option select the first episode and save it as a batch file. and so on.
