Upgrading

[wlc108]

Please pardon my ignorance, but I'm kind of stuck figuring out how I should go about re-creating a D2V file now that I need to do it for the new beta.

I have the Rips and Projects folders from Robot4rip, and no longer have the vobs and such. I simply want to re-create d2v files for some of the movies I have on my HD. What is the simplest way to do this?

How can you encode a video if you don't have the source vobs ??? d2v file is just an index file for vobs... (whatever vobs R4R produced will still do - just open them with DGIndex and save d2v file)

Basically, what I mean is I have the following two dirs, containing the following files:


Projects\HELLBOY_VTS_08_PGC1 contains:

HELLBOY_ForceFilm.d2v
VTS_08_1 - 0x80 - Audio - AC3 - 6ch - 48kHz - DRC - English - DELAY 0ms.mp3
VTS_08_1 - 0x80 - Audio - AC3 - 6ch - 48kHz - DRC - English - DELAY 0ms.log

Rips\HELLBOY_VTS_08_PGC1 contains:

VTS_08 - Stream Information.txt
VTS_08_0.IFO
VTS_08_1 - 0x80 - Audio - AC3 - 6ch - 48kHz - DRC - English - DELAY 0ms.AC3
VTS_08_1 - 0xE0 - Video - MPEG-2 - 720x480 (NTSC) - 16~9 - Letterboxed.M2V
VTS_08_2 - 0xE0 - Video - MPEG-2 - 720x480 (NTSC) - 16~9 - Letterboxed.M2V
VTS_08_3 - 0xE0 - Video - MPEG-2 - 720x480 (NTSC) - 16~9 - Letterboxed.M2V
VTS_08_4 - 0xE0 - Video - MPEG-2 - 720x480 (NTSC) - 16~9 - Letterboxed.M2V

I still have the DVD here, and -could- do a re-rip of it, but basically I'm at the step of the old GK where after I ran R4R, it would have my audio pre-encoded. I'd just load up GK, run a compression test, set the resolution, and just encode the video+mux the audio in. I'm just wondering, at this step, how I could re-create a d2v file using the new beta's format.

Sorry If I didn't explain it well enough.


And thanks, I'll give that a try :) I'm still learning what each step is that R4R/GK itself does for me.

Just open all M2Vs in DGindex and resave the project (you might run into some audio synch issues though if audio was demuxed with different version of DVD2AVI).
