I'm not a noob to the whole DVD backup process in the slightest, but I am a noob on taking an Xvid avi to DVD. I'm about to pull my hair out because none of the guides are really helping me get the quality that i'm looking for.
I have a movie that came with 2 xvid avis with the ac3 encoded audio. I first tried to join the avis with VirtualDub but it tells me that it cant append the avi because they were encoded in two different audio bitrates. Ok, no problem. One of the guides tells me to extract the audio, which I did and made two 1Gb wav files out of them, along with 2 stripped avis. Nothing in the guide tells me how to put the audio back in at the same bitrate so I can join them.
So, I took another route. AVI2DVD program. Apparently if you have the 2 files in the same exact directory named the exact same way movie1.avi and movie2.avi, AVI2DVD will automatically append the avi during its encoding process. Well, I let it go through its multiple pass encoding and when I woke up the next morning, only one avi made it in.
Ok, so I took the WinAVI route. That went really slick and easy. But when I put the DVD into my player, the letterbox was grey instead of black (might be my TV, but thats never happened) and the movie studders every 1.5 seconds, at regular intervals. It was burned at 4x with DVD Decrypter on Taiyo Yuden 8x TY02 disks.
So, with that LONG story summed up. Which guide can I follow to get two avis onto one DVD with a steady picture????
BTW, my burner is an NEC +-R with the latest flash and I use only high quality disks.
