I have been using tmpgenc plus to convirt my avi to a dvd so i can burn it to dvd. After i convert it the file wont open in anything but nero vision and it takes forever to burn to dvd is ther any way to change the output file so i can use something else to burn to my dvd that wont take 2 hrs ??
Also my avi's are in leterbox format can i make them full screen i changed all my ratios to fullscreen in tmpgenc but it doesent seem to affect it ..
What is a good program to crop with i used virtual dub and had to use a filter to make it work and my video quality was affected ...i have a program called video edit magic and cant get it to do much of anything..
Are you sure you used TMPGenc's 'Full screen (keep aspect ratio)' ?
After you convert the file..from what to what? Did you use our guides cointained in the DVD-R section of http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/ (and the TMPGenc's tutorial, of course)?
Third. AVI --> DVD seems to be very popular, but lease knopw that, since the video quality has been already extremaly reduced (4.5 GB --> 700/900 MB), making a simple VCD will give you the maximum quality you can get...
Readneck - authore your DVD compliant mpeg-2 files first with good DVD authoring program, before you burn them to DVD-R. Use Nero only for burning. This will also take your time, but that's the name of the game.
Aldaco - if you have two hi-quality AVI movies, e.g. 700MB Xvid, 1000-2000kbps, 2-pass and convert them to DVD with resolution of 352x480 NTSC or 352x576 PAL (VBR, MP2) and burn both to same DVD-R: The result is FAR, far better quality than any VCD..
