Howdy, I've been using the original Devede software to make DVDs of movies, TV shows etc. It is no longer maintained and is no longer in the tree. At some point, it will likely stop working at all. I installed and played with the new and improved Devedeng. While it works differently, I like the new one better. It seems to have less clicking to add files and get the menu set right. I'm having a issue tho.
My issue is the ISO is to large. On one DVD I made, it had a dozen 40 minute long shows on it. They were small black and white videos. I can create it just fine with the same shows with the old Devede but the new Devedeng creates a ISO that is over 5GBs. Obviously, that is a problem since it won't fit on a normal DVD. I googled, found others with the same problem on older versions of Devedeng. I tried to apply the solutions on the current version but some solutions are no longer available, grayed out, or the options are no longer where I can find them. I even looked for a default config file to see if I could edit some setting there. So far, I can't find one in my user directory. It seems no matter what I do, it makes a ISO that is to large even tho the old version can create it just fine. As a test, I took the files I set up with the new Devedeng, added some more files to it and the old Devede could still make a ISO file that would fit on a DVD with no problems. It has to be a setting somewhere that I just can't find. And by the way, I am clicking the adjust disc usage button before clicking forward to create the ISO. It's a habit by now. ;-) media-video/devedeng-4.11.0::gentoo was built with the following: USE="-libav" ABI_X86="(64)" PYTHON_TARGETS="python3_6 -python3_4 -python3_5" Anyone else run into this and know a fix that works on current versions of Devedeng? Thanks for the help. Let me know if anyone needs to know about a setting. Dale :-) :-)
