hi, im trying to create dvds with subtitles in cli, and i can't generate the xml because DOS can't work whith some characters, i only find documentations usint the xml as config. some one can post a example of authoring wthout xml's?

im guess im have to use mplex/dvdauthor/spumux because is the only way i find to use srt files as input for subtitles from cli.

i like more muxman, but i dont find a way to "srt 2 sup" for cli....

sorry for the bad english. tnks.

i had broken my head for using dos and dvdauthor and i had found a way to do it: like this


ECHO ^<dvdauthor dest="dvd"^> >config.xml
ECHO ^<vmgm^> >>config.xml
ECHO ^</vmgm^> >>config.xml
ECHO ^<titleset^> >>config.xml
ECHO ^<titles^> >>config.xml

ECHO ^<video format="pal" /^> >>config.xml
ECHO ^<pgc^> >>config.xml
ECHO ^<vob file="DVD\dvd_full.mpg" chapters="0,0:00,5:00,10:00,15:00,20:00,25:00,30:00,35:00,40:00,45:00" /^> >>config.xml
ECHO ^<post^>exit; ^</post^> >>config.xml
ECHO ^</pgc^> >>config.xml
ECHO ^</titles^> >>config.xml
ECHO ^</titleset^> >>config.xml
ECHO ^</dvdauthor^> >>config.xml

and so far...

but i already change spumux/dvdauthor to sub2sup/SubtitleCreator + muxman.

Mxp (the template) is quite easy to implement in batch mode.

But now i am stuck with your same problem : a cli for change srt-sub/idx to sup. So far i not found a solution.

So i will wait or for a update to these programs :scared:

instead of "echo" why not type "edit" and then use the built in text editor.

with "echo zzz > xxx.txt" you will pipe the output of echo (zzz) to a file "xxx.txt", and with ">>" you will append the lines.

in this way you can launch dvdauthor or spumux in command line without editing every time the line of mux (in a batch file you will know every file names)

No, I am suggesting that you open the dos based text editor edit.exe. Write your xml file, edit it, save it, copy and paste in it. Works with a mouse. Edit.exe has been in dos sense 5.0 or maybe before.

from the C prompt.

C:> edit config.xml

@Ebobtron

sure you can !

but you can automatize all task
1)rip (dvd decrypter command line interface)
2)indexes (dgindex command line interface)
3)audio trascoding (ffmpeg/mencoder or besweet)
4)video encoding (Elcce or mencoder)
5)mux (by dvdauthor)
6)dvd burning (with imgtools + dvddecrypter)

all this can be batched: just lauch rip&go.bat and wait

I understand, now. I did not pick up from the first two posts that you were using the repeated echo's in a batch file.

Never mind. Carry on.

i make a "almost" automated dvd2matroska pack, based in a batch automation (using he-aac, xvid, xcd). now im doing a matroska2dvd in batch. :) is damn primitive, but works :) i love batch :)

@Malow

:D :D :D i had already do that !!! :D :D :D

dvd or mpeg1/mpeg2 (any things that dgindex could pass, or for mpeg1 directshowsource) to mkv

I love too batch :cool: ! (you could even download it but it is in italian, or at last menu for choice)

you can choose input,output,size mb (plus split),resize (even with auto resize based on quality, language (up to 2), interlaced source, QMF or other avisynth filter, subtitles (up to 2), varius (up to 9) modality to encode (5 for xvid, 2 for other vfw codec, and x264), xcd creator,iso creator ... and other...

Good Work !!!
