How do i know if the source is in NTSC or PAL,
if its in NTSC will the "NTSC to PAL" button be checkable?
because at the moment mines grey and i can't click it.
open it up with Virtual Dub Mod and check under File-> File Information
PAL=25 Fps*
NTSC= 29,97 fps*
23,976 fps* with 3:2 pulldown = 29,97 playback fps (NTSC Film, this is only supported by MPEG2 video)
note* fps=Frames per second

If your on about that dvdscr-rip, its nuked for "stolen without permission" ... meaning there's nothing wrong with the file, just group wars, lol. Run the file through G-Soft and check to see if u have the right codec/(de)compressor/ installed.
I should imagine its ac3 audio, so download this: http://nchc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourcefo … _0_70b.exe
Maybe a stupid thing, but try playing the file in a player to see if it actually has audio, then u can narrow down the problem.
It's mp3 audio, but I tried ac3filter anyways but It didn't work....any other ideas?

Did you specify the path to your encoder correctly?
And to all you guys, why do you post your own ways of converting AVIs to DVD, write your own guide.

You can check it with GSpot. And yes, the NTSC to PAL button will be checkable if the source is NTSC and the conversion between NTSC and PAL works great, I always check it when my source happen to be NTSC.

I have anotehr problem now...the encoded video onlöy gets a little bigger than the avi and not near 4gb so the quality aint as good as I'd wish...I guess I've done something wrong with the bitrate settings but I don't know what? I have 9400 max and 0 min and on avg I put like 5000, 7000 and 4300 mb...what is wrong?

Hmm make sure the Max avg. bitrate is set high. Is it a movie that you're encoding or is it a shorter clip or what, 'cause if the source is too short you won't get a 4450 MB file ('cause the bitrate would be too high).

Yes, it's a movie....a 700 mb avi gets a bit over a gb and a 1.4 gb avi about 2 gb...how high should I set max avg? 9000?

Setting the max to low will result in undersized movies so keep it high, like 8000 or something. If it somehow doesn't work correctly, calculate the appropriate bitrate you should use for your movie with Bearson's Bitrate Calc and then enter that value as the Min Avg. bitrate. That will make CCE encode it at atleast that bitrate which will result in the movie being around 4450 MB.

Ok...thanks will try that
EDIT: It didn't work I converted the war of the worlds release 1.4 gb to 1.6 gb? Here's my bitrate settings...Bearson's Bitrate Calc told me to have 5000... so I had 9400 max, 0 min, 5000 min avg and 8000 max avg...what am I doin wrong?

Propably something got screwed up when joining the two files, did you get any popup messages about the header or something? Or did you accidentally close BeSweet while it was encoding?

Hmm post a screenshot of your bitrate tab there's gotta be something screwed up.

Try using a different version of CCE, I have had problems with many of them, apparently v2.50 works 100% for me, you could give it a shot. Try checking the Safe mode (frameserving) checkbox too if you're using a newer version than v2.50, it might solve some problems.

Yes the audio had different sampling rates... So what i did is run it through virtual dub and save the audio as uncompressed PCM, same goes for the second file. Then appended those files together, then run it through the conversion....
strange, i've now done 6-7 films using this program and only one seems to be the problem, and "no" my source video and audio are perfect.

Hmm weird I never get any errors like this when converting stuff. You could always try to encode the 2 AVI files separately = use half the size of a DVD as "CD Size" for each file.

umm, now im getting a different problem....
Half Baked - 614MB
VIDEO
Codec: DIV3/DIV4 / DivX 3 Fast-Motion
Frames: 145,876
kbps: 860
QF: 0.092

Thats the input file, downloaded and loaded into DVD2SVCD completely untouched.
When I burnt off the VOB's and played the video, the audio was slow.
The voices of some people were like deep and slow...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the DVD2SVCD LOG...
WNASPI32.DLL 4.6.0.1021
The original video framerate of 30.000 is not supported. The framerate will be adjusted!

Initializing
- C:\Movies\Half Baked\half baked.avi
Initializing finished.
Anyone know why my audio is like that?
Remember i had one file, so it wasn't need to be joined, i just loaded the file straight into dvd2svcd.
Any help appreciated, thanks

Check the Encoded_Audio.mp2 file that DVD2SVCD has given you, if it doesn't have the same problems something must have got wrong in the muxing process, or the source is screwed up (I doubt that). If the Encoded_Audio.mp2 file doesn't have any "slowdown", try authoring with IfoEdit or Muxman and see if it works then.

yeh Encoded_audio_1.mp2 is fine, perfect!
Encoded_audio_1 is the file that is slow.
wait a minute im confused. i loaded Encoded_audio_1 into DVDLab and its not DVD compliant. How can this be?
But thats the file it authoured, anyways i think its sorted now, just had to re-author with Encoded_audio_1.mp2 as my audio.
thanks
1: I keep getting sync issues when its encoding - any ideas?
2: How do i find whether to encode with the sound from the xvid or do it seperate?
3: What aspect ratio should I be using? Say the xvid is in widescreen, should I choose to encode it in widescreen or in normal 4:3.
4: Which files do I need to put on the dvd? Once its encoded I have quite a few files.

Great guide, helps me starting using AVI2SVCD. But don't get the clue of the Aspect Ratio thing either. Wich one do I have to use if i want 16:9? Maybe a list like:
Source Wanted Output Choose:
4:3 16:9 with borders AR here
4:3 16:9 without borders AR here
Etc. Maybe that will help some people.
#291746 by unknown[30189] at 2005-07-12 03:08:08 (8 years ago) - [Report]
Aspect Ratio - Find the X and Y of your file... example 720x440. (u can find out by opening yuor file with g-spot or virtualdub...
Once you find the sizes... get out your cacualtor and divide those numbers...
(g-spot also caculates it automatically)
so 720 divided by 440 = 1.6363636363636363636363636363636
= 1.63
NOW...
if your number is below 1.78 choose 4:3
if your number is above 1.78 choose 16:9
If you leave it as the default 4:3 AR and goto go > preview, it may look distorted, if it does change it to 16:9 and preview it again.

ninja909 i dunno if this helps but i had some troubles with audio at
first, so i just imported the bb_muxed_00 file into DVDLab then it demuxed it
into audio and video, worked a charm for me.
