Am I right - avi2svcd batch ?

[Adamo]

Hallo,

I have 10GB AVI file (captured from miniDV camcorder).
As I read in this forum CCE 2.50 will not process it because of the input file size limitation.

So I have to divide this AVI to 5 files not larger than 2GB and make a batch, just like DDog wrote ( http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?threadid=21312 )

#start of script
avisource("1.avi","2.avi","3.avi","4.avi","5.avi")
#end of script

Save it as "combine.avs" and how to process it by avi2svcd to one svcd?

Do i have to put this AVS file in the place where AVI file was?
I mean in this window where "go" button is?

Hi Adamo,

you got it wrong somehow. CCE is not able to convert files larger than 2 GB but DVD2SVCD is using AviSynth for frameserving a "Pseudo-AVI" to CCE and gives CCE only the frames it demands piece by piece so CCE has no problem with larger files - so there's no need to cut your AVI into pieces!

Try it with the AVI2SVCD feature of DVD2SVCD - just select the AVI file and hit the "GO!" button.

Make sure you read the "AVI hints" and the little AVI2SVCD reference you can find in the FAQ.

Greetings,
Gerti

I'm newbie in this subject. :stupid:
The more I read in this forum the bigger mess is in my head.
I need time to understand what is going on in converting
DV format movies to SVCD.

Becuse convering 10GB file to SVCD takes a loooong time
I prefer to know how to do it before I start.

Next question: how to check CEE speed?

Thanx Geri.

Hi Adamo,

I suggest you take a small part of your DV-file around 2 gig (cut it with your video editing program), which equals to nine minutes of video. And start encoding with dvd2svcd. Just by doing it you 'll learn.
