I was just surprised that an ancient, low-tech program like dd is all it takes to do a modern, high-tech action like burning a DVD. Given how much hassle cdrecord goes through just to burn a CD, it just seemed really counterintuitive. :-) >As I wrote in the mail shortly before you should not use the -M switch >(or any other spliting by mplex).

The -S option of mpeg2enc doesn't actually seem to produce separate files, just sequence-end marks; from my experience, only mplex actually splits videos into separate files. Also, I deactivated the -M switch: the standard 1.6.0 sources set opt_multifile_segment to true for the DVD format; this is in OutputStream::InitSyntaxParameters(), in multplex.cc. I'm sorry for being so clueless; I really *am* trying to understand all this. :-) >>Here's the command line that I used to generate the video: > >Drop the -b option, raise the -q to 7-8, and use the denoiser. But if I drop the -b option, I'll get 7500 kbps, and then the video won't fit onto the DVD. Also, you really think I need to use the denoiser on a high-quality S-Video source like a LaserDisc?
