AVI rip to DVD

[mgmtech]

hi guys,
Can anyone tell me what is the best avi to dvd converter software out there? I have tried Nero 7, cucusoft, power producer and ulead. None of them can quickly encoded and the sound does not match with the video.

Hi!

One set of procedures (other posters may/probably will suggest alternative methods) would be:

1) Use "TMPGEnc" (or "TMPGEncPlus") to convert the .AVI (DivX-compressed or otherwise) to compliant MPEG2-for-DVD format - Use "TMPGEnc's" DVD wizard/template to accomplish this

2) Use "TMPGEnc DVD Author" (a different program than "TMPGEnc") to easily create the required additional DVD files and structure (and chapters and a menu, if you wish)
You can obtain a FULLY functional free 30 day trial version of this commercial program at:

**If the combined filesize of the DVD "package" written to your hard drive is greater than 4.37Gb, use DVD Shrink (or similar) to compress


If your O/S is either Win2000 or WinXP, TMPGEnc DVD Author can also burn your DVD. Otherwise, use NERO to burn in "DVD-Video" mode
(As an alternative to "TMPGEnc DVD Author", you could use "DVDLab")


Let us know of your success ;>}

Also read the tutorials as well as use Search. Your question has been asked and answered many times over.

If your "AVI rip" is from a DVD, you'll get better quality going back to the original and copying it. If you don't own the original, read rule 6 as well as the sticky at the top of the Newbies forum.
