Capture/converting problem

wizard327 · 7th June 2003, 08:07

Hi Guys,
Hope someone can help me.I have a DV camera with 60-minute footage in it.I captured the raw film from my camera to PC using my firewire card and scenalyzer.Tried the batchcapture option but here I am facing problem.I have chosen the scenes to be batchcaptured(after making the index)but when i started to batchcapture,the scenalyzer just keeps on capturing the whole film repeatedly(seems like it is in a loop.).Also,the whole 60-minute raw footage is 16Gigabytes.What I want to do is capture/convert the film to an avi file then use DVD2SVCD to make a SVCD using canopus procoder.I tried another approach.This time,i captured the film in 4-Gb segments,joined them together with avi-mpeg joiner then loaded the complete avi film to canopus.Converted it fine with no problem.At the end i have a 950 Megabyte mp2 file ready to burn but when I tried to burn it with Nero,I keep getting message " disk capacity not enough" although i have a 99 minute CDR.I already changed the settings in Nero to accept 99 minute CDR but still won;t burn.The footage is from a wedding ceremony and I want to make a svcd.I am using WinXP Pro,60GB harddisk,P4 1.7 Ghz.Please help.
Thanks,

Hi nndgll,
nice to hear from you again.I have 60-minute Pal DV footage which i captured to avi using Scenalyzer.Encoded the whole 60-minute film to SVCD using DVD2SVCD(no time restriction).Just some minor problem with mice teeth when i play the burned disc to my standalone dvdplayer/tv monitor.When the camera shifts from one location to the next(say from right to left or up and down,the image gets distorted.Any help would be most welcome.

cheers,

You'd have to add: at the maximum bitrate ~2700 kbps (video + audio). Of course you can put longer films on a single SVCD by reducing the bitrate (and quality).
