Is it possible to do batch files using DVD2SVCD, I cant seem to find any information on it so i presume that there isnt.
Also just a general queery, is it possible to copy the dvd in its anamorphic state, and if so how do i do it, all i get on my anamorphic copies are widescreen versions.

Thanks

Try a search on batch here you will get a few hits.
I also happened to remember a post concerning chapter points, but you might be able to modify it to work the way you want.

Read the sticky about 16:9 vs 4:3 and do a search on that as well as this has been covered, but I believe the way you did that was to encode the 16:9 source as 4:3, but I am not completely sure. This ends up making a video that works well with widescreen TV's, but it will look wrong on 4:3 TV's. There is no way to get it to change automatically.

Thanks...
I figured the anamorphic problem by reading thru the other posts, and will now encode in 4:3 ratio format in future.
