Hi, I live in the U.S. and received a PAL DVD from family back in Australia.
I want to convert the DVD from PAL to NTSC and burn a new DVD (it's less than 4.7GB). I've played with a number of different tools including: mplayer, dvdbackup, dvdauthor, transcode, mjpegtools; but I can't find the right combination yet. I had a small success with the following sequence: mplayer -vo yuv4mpeg -nosound -noframedrop dvd://1 cat stream.yuv | yuvfps -r 30000:1001 | yuvscaler -O SIZE_720x480 | mpeg2enc -f 9 -q 1 -b 5000 -n n -o ntsc.m2v tcmplex -m d -d 3 -D 0 -o x.vob -i ntsc.m2v -p x.mpa The x.mpa file came from an earlier run of transcode which was called out of the dvdbackup script. I'm fine with getting the .vob file onto a dvd using dvdauthor and dvdrecord. For the small test I did, the movie was jerky. I don't know about the sound because the title I used had no sound. Can I use mplayer to extract both the video AND the audio? Any idea on why the movie is jerky? How can I know if the source is interlaced (or are DVDs never interlaced) and thus perform a de-interlacing step?
