Two times dvd

[Dr.Jekill]

For time problems I have necessity of encoding of 1 dvd in 2 times. In the window of dvd2svcd conversion I have selected IFO file, then have deselected the vob file from fifth in then. When they have gone in order to make remaining the 4 vob the audio has been encoded all vob, rather than that one of the vob from fifth to eighth. There is any way of to do this?

Sorry for my bad english. ;-)

Let me see if I understand...

You don't want your PC tied up for long periods, so you want to encode a DVD in two halfs - one CDR at a time, so to speak. You select the ifo for the movie, then deselect vobs 5 through 8 in an attempt to encode the first half.

But, when DVD2SVCD is done, you find it has encoded the audio for all 8 vobs.

Not sure if that's what you meant, but going to answer as if it were.

First, how are you deselecting the vobs? However you are doing it, I suspect the deselection isn't recognized by the internal DVD2SVCD routines that extract the ac3 stream.

I think what might work better is to enable internal ripping, then select just the chapters you want on the first CDR (and ditto later for the second CDR). That way, DVD2SVCD will only rip the appropriate parts of the vobs in the first place, and you won't need to do any deselecting.

Let us know if that helps.

You understand me, but you don't understand that i have encoded the first cdr without any problems, but at the second the video is ok but the audio is that one of all the vob, even if I have deselected the vob from the first one to the quarter.

Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Because of HDD limitations :mad: I have to go through the same procedure (sometimes). And of course I run into the same problem - on the second CDR audio is from different part of the film.
One thing worth to mention - I ripped whole film once at the beginning (using internal rip). Is it OK in such a case? Or should I rip each half of the film seperately?
Thanks
