[Mjpeg-users] Mixing old and new recordings
I want to mix some old avi recordings done at half-size with some new ones at full size, all into one dvd. Am I wanting the impossible? Do I have to locate the original tape and start again?

Trailers, etc I often put as half size and the main feature at full size. However you can not mix different frame sizes within a single track. Put the 'full size" videos on one track and the half size on a different track and you'll be fine. Or just put each video on a track of its own with a top level menu to select which video clip to play. Cheers, Steven Schultz - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

The script I use is just as it was given to me by Selva Nair, when I first started doing this. I did at first try Linux Video Studio, but it only partially worked, and IIRC it didn't work at all after the 2.6 kernels started (could be wrong there). Perhaps it's time I came into the 21st century? :-) Anne pgpjA8Ll6Uepz.pgp Description: PGP signature - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Perhaps it's time I came into the 21st century? :-) It is less about coming into the 21st century than it is about using the correct tool to do a job. Even in the 19th century folks knew that a screwdriver probably doesn't work well with nails ;) Much of DVD authoring (especially if you're doing complex menus) is visual in nature thus it makes sense, to me, to use tools that work graphically/visually. http://www.mediachance.com/dvdlab/ Not very expensive and it runs under WINE Cheers, Steven Schultz - Take Surveys.

Since I'm dealing with old Hi8 tape and an analogue recorder, I still have to capture with the DC10+. Do these editing suites start from .avi files? The linux ones I've seen are generally aimed at starting from digital video. Anne pgpyozfA8lWmu.pgp Description: PGP signature - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Do these editing suites Are you sure you're looking at the same thing I hoped I was pointing you to? DVD-Lab is an authoring program. It is NOT a capture program, it is not a editing program. You do all the encoding in advance and present Dvd-Lab with the MPEG-2 video files and accompanying audio (.AC3, or .MP2). > start from .avi files? The linux ones I've seen are generally aimed at > starting from digital video. "all in one" programs, in my opinion, tend to be "jack of all trades and master of none" - doing many things half well rather than using better independent programs. DVD-Lab (and DVD Studio Pro from Apple, and Premiere from Adobe for windows) are DVD authoring *only* programs - they do not do capture, encode, edit - there are other programs to do that. One of my brothers, alas in the windows world, started out trying to use one of those 'all in one' packages - didn't work well. Tried a free package - that was a flop, and then bought DVD-Lab and has been happy (at least I don't hear coasters flying overhead now ;)) Cheers, Steven Schultz - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Capturing, editing and encoding is done with DVgrab, Kino and Mjpegtools on a Linux machine. I haven't tried DVD-Lab Pro under WINE lately. I don't recall what 0.9.x version I tried it on. It seemed to "work" but at the time I was just learning to use DVD-Lab Pro and I didn't know the menus very well. That was some what of a problem because WINE didn't display the drop down menu items until you moused over the area on the screen where the menu item was supposed to be. Seems like there was some drop and drag problems too. Kind of annoying. I don't know if any of those problems has been fixed. Does anyone else on the list know? Stan - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Do I have to > locate the original tape and start again? On note: if you plan to encode several AVI/MOV files with a single command (lav2yuv file_1.avi file_2.avi ... | ...) All files need to have the same size, interlacing and so on. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard - Take Surveys.
