I have a Video that i wanted to hardsub some subtitles into. I used avisynth to put in the subtitles and saved it as my .avs script. I just learned that Convertxtodvd can handle scripts directly so that i can burn them to dvd. If i were to choose to do this would quality be the same as the source video considering i dident have to reencode the video? Or would it be better to recode them back to h264 with the subtitles hardcoded then burn to dvd? because when i drag my .avs script into Convertxtodvd for video and audio details it says
Rawvideo, yuuv422,736x480, 417083/10000000,135524 kb/s
Audio:Pcm_s16le,48000hz

When the original nonscripted source was .h264 with aac audio.

AviSynth decompresses anything you source into it. If you're converting to an actual DVD (MPEG-2) then a recompression is taking place no matter what, but going directly script->DVD is better than script->new H264->DVD since you're skipping one recompression step.

Wait, in order for you to burn those subs to a video, you have to reencode the video. And ChiDragon is right, go script->DVD not script->new H264->DVD.
