WELL there..WestrnGuy..U don't say what u are trying to convert? If it's an AVI or Divx why don't u just use VSO DivxToDVD..Much..much simpler & u have all your VOB files which is DVD standards

Don't forget u will need the .BUP & .IFO files added to your VIDEO_TS Folder..or your DVD's won't play
Do u have or know how to use IFOEdit..IFOEdit.com/" class="korostus" target="_blank">http://www.IFOEdit.com/

HELLO..WestrnGuy... if it's DivxToDVD it's basic open it up (SOURCE fILE)CLICK ON THE LITTLE FILE..another window opens..find the file u want to convert..click on that file..now click open,now u got your source file!!
Next...(Destination folder)..again click on the little file..now figure out where u want your new movie put..now just click that file & click ok..So now u have afile in & a file out..NOW JUST CLICK CONVERT..Sit back back & wait..it takes about the same amount of time to convert the movie..as to however long the movie is..My computer 2.2GIG 2:00hr movie takes 2:00hr to convert..I made a folder on my hard drive called DVDTemp..that puts it pretty close to the top of the list of files i have on my harddrive
Let me know if u understand this & get your VOB files made alright?I'll send u instructions on IfoEdit in a bit
Christ u get up early!!all mt messaging will be late afternoon or evening might take a while as I don't do anything while I'm converting..I even turn off my modem & disable firewalls & antivirus

HEY Their Again..WestrnGuy..I don't really know as i don't use SubTitles..But it seems to me that if u go to this site u might find your answer..I think u can do all that in IFOEdit..I only use it to make the new files I need to make my DVD's compliant..With new BUP's & IFO's
JUST COPY & PASTE this address in your go
http://web.ask.com/redir?u=http%3A%2F%2Ftm.wc.ask.com%2Fr%3Ft%3Da...

ur instructions were better...
and when i create ifo files the audio settings are ok. nothing wrong with them.
Anyway the instructions in the guide is just for audio editing not for subtitles...

to see the subtitles i am using now the guide in this site (divx to dvd) and i try another film, and TMPGEnc now recognizes the time correctly. I'm usind 2-pass vbr, and a bitrate of 4500 (the AVI file is 1200kbps). I have AMD 2500XP and 512 MB Ram but it's been 8 hours and still needs 3,5 hours to convert a film (the length of the film is just 58:50). i think sth is wrong, but i did what the guide says me to do...

dvtool will combine your files..just remember they are at or about 700megs for a reason..anything over won't fit on a disc
divxtodvd will combine your files just keep adding files till your hearts content..the more u add the more its got to compress..i don't like putting more then 1 movie on a disc..but if what u got is a split movie then just add both parts to divxtodvd..then convert

after reading all 14 pages and searching extensively i cant find an answer to the unsupported file type in tmpg. my file is a valid AVI file as verified by AVIcodec, GSpot, etc... but my file is still unsupported. I downloaded all the necessary codecs but i cant get this to work. Is there another way to do this?

if ignorance is bliss, why arent more people happy?

its Kung Fu Hustle and XXX State of The Union. I have been able to play both with video and sound however i can't use tmpg to convert them. When i use tmpg to browse to the file i wish to convert and select it and every time i do it says unable to open and/or unsupported file type.

Don't know about Kung Fu Hustle but i used dvdsanta for XXX State of The Union..if thet are both AVI,divx,etc should work..vso divxtodvd should also work,this is free..works really well
one of XXX State of The Union on the net is missing about 10 min in the middle..when he jumps out of the shower it jumps to a car scene w/his old girl friend..it does'nt show how he finds a body & is being setup for a fall..or how he gets out of the mansion

I only use 2 programs when converting 2 avs and subs to dvd. Heres what i do and it works every time!
Before using these programs i had sync probs with audio and subs but no more probs now!

Install a program called VobSub as this will force the subtitles.
Install Canopus Procoder 2.This prog supports all files!!!!!
Make sure when you unpack the download that you have the 2 avis and the subs files in exactly the same folder.
There is no need to join these either as Canopus will do this for you.
Start Canopus Procoder and put a tick in the stitch box as this will join the files together,
then choose a target which will be dvd PAL or whatever you wish to do then click convert and choose a path for output
if you don't choose a path then the default path is my documents. Then hit convert! watch the first 5 mins you should
see the subtitles being tranconded with the movie, if so then unclick preview as this will slow down convertion.
Its as Simple as that.

does anyone know if the process is different if the file is smaller than an actual movie. Im trying to burn some episodes of the simpsons to dvd. they are all AVI files about 180mb in size. Do i have to join them first, then convert or convert them separately then burn them to dvd. I have 25 AVI files im trying to burn. I tried burning one but i only was able to produce video without sound. And the subtitles were cut off at the bottom the screen. The picture didnt fit the screen at all. Any suggestions on how to do this are greatly appreciated
