Dear "first time poster"!
A warm welcome to this forum. So at least you managed to find us and you have registered to start your first post burning with desire to get an answer to your biggest problem(s) concerning dvd2svcd. (If you have other problems then consult your doctor, at first.) - Just kidding. ;)
As you can see we are a "happy family" in here so don't be afraid of asking your questions - BUT - make sure you have done all the things a good "first time poster" could do before starting his first post:
- help the moderators and members to not get burned out by answering the same questions a thousand times
- you can find these frequently asked questions in the "DVD2SVCD Official Q&A (http://rilanparty.com/vbb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=5686)"
- also, make sure you have read the "Newbie FAQ (http://rilanparty.com/vbb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8127)" right here in this forum - look for it
- it is always a good idea to first have a look at the "Stickys" - they are there for a special reason
- try to do a little search on your own by using the "search" button of this forum - it won't bite ;)
- and at least read some posts to get an idea on how things work in here
If you were a good "first time poster" and you have done (some of) the above - then you qualify for starting your first post - go for it! - BUT - don't destroy the impression of being a good "first timer" by posting something like: "dvd2svcd does not work - what have I done wrong?" - You know, this is like saying to the doctor: "I feel ill - please help me!"
We will do our very best to try to help you but we can't do that if you don't give some detailed information concerning your problem(s). Otherwise it's like "reading tea leaves" or like "consulting the good old crystal ball". ;) It leads to nothing but a couple of posts like: "What OS are you using?", "How are your system specs?" and so further and so on. This will only fill up the forum with unnecessary posts we all have to read and read and read and ... (to be continued endlessly).
This can be avoided by supplying these informations right with your first post. The most important files and informations to post are the following (try to decide what applies to your problem(s)):
- tell us something about your system (OS, CPU, memory, harddrive, ...)
- let us know something about the DVD you try to convert (PAL/NTSC, aspect ratio, region code, ...)
- paste the "dvd2svcd_log.txt" file to your post because it contains nearly all necessary data to see what went wrong or at least it will give us a hint on how to track down the problem(s).
- also paste the "Avisynth_Script_file.avs" to your post (open with notepad) if something is wrong with the "MPG" files
And last but not least, be gentle and you will treated gentle - so you will sure have a nice time with us in here. :)
Greetings,
the moderators, the frequently posting members
and not to forget all other helpful people out there
