When poking around, since qdvdauthor has been completely unworking today (constantly crashing, cannot say why today and not yesterday), I saw an obsolete program (Debian Sid) in my menu called WinFF. A front-end to ffmpeg, thinks I. Sure enough, I told it to output "high quality NTSC DVD" and fed it the camera's original files. Here's the command-line, retrieved from ps: /usr/bin/ffmpeg -i /home/curt/JVC-Video/mov01e.mpg -target ntsc-dvd -r 29.97 -s 720x480 -aspect 4:3 -b 8000k -mbd rd -flags +trell -mv0 -cgop -cmp 2 -subcmp 2 /home/curt/October2008/mov01e.mpg I tried dvdauthor on one of the resulting files, and it worked perfectly. It seems I'm going to be able to bypass mplayer, qdvdauthor and everything else and just make a vanilla auto-playing DVD, which is all I really wanted to do in the first place. Thank you, Mark, Bernhard, and everyone on the Mjpeg-users list. I appreciate your help and suggestions, and your kind reception for a confused end-user. :^) Peace, may your aim never waver, Curt- - -- This November, vote NO for all those who voted AYE: http://clerk.house.gov/cgi-bin/vote.asp?year=2008&rollnumber=681 http://tinyurl.com/4tg88o (senate) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iQEVAwUBSPjvwC9Y35yItIgBAQJXvwf/c1REEUQDOcP4yxAC46PuqXd0HOGwOkYH 2z5rsgEZwu2a0zHL2/kXOVJkU749UvFUY5l6ULGLW2IWBWc+nJLnqX541EFjNNtU bIm6X1mD/o33TBcHrrv1jSkA4iE/uTRKu9aoBklG1pnGh7oK8Ltl8zXKXdxadePB dqn1sx5R09zEPpClzpxjKO4FNF7zPweWBQR+BkFUmnb5gHAkearrazIrp7SmY7At xp5uRIjP91Kbeu6okeZ1HIKXrNBAl7DnbngrbsnK6xw44GToKE9mvb11v+Zs3kEm sSqISCup6/SHSN/5XSVXbFuMIGim7Q1/9bE0KjBm9G2CudajlDpAtA== =+qZQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Mjpeg-users mailing list Mjpeg-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mjpeg-users
