m2v + ac3 - How do I burn it onto DVD - HEEELLLPP!!!!

[Bricktop]

I have created an M2V(video) and AC3 (sound) using DVD2SVCD the total size of both added together is 4.5gb. I have played it on PowerDVD and it plays fine. How do I burn it onto a DVD+R???

Nero 5.5 will not recognise these formats
and for some reason my computer freezes when using spruce up 1.1.

How can I burn a DVD that will work on any stand alone DVD player?

If not is there anyway of joining the two files to make an mpeg with video and auido??


THANKS:confused:

You just mutilated this rule:

9) Use a title that describes the content of your post. Don't use all caps or special characters to draw attention.Edit your post to remove those, and don't do it again, or you'll be struck. Most people will ignore posts with a title like yours.

Also, you should have done a search of the forum before posting, because these issues are discussed a ton in other forums. You'll have to mux the video and audio together, using a tool like TMPGEnc. Also, there is no way to make a DVD that will play on any standalone, which you should know. The maximum support that a DVD-R or DVD+R disc can achieve is about 85%.

Sorry if I offended anyone. A couple of things:

1) I am a real newbie to this
2) I dont understand SVCD or DVD+R

I am trying to copy a DVD to a good quality recording to go onto a DVD+R disk that will play on my DVD player. What do I need???


Thanks

read the guides man...

:angry:

[Bricktop]

I have read the guide but cannot find what I am looking for. Can anyone help me or if not point me in the right direction.

Does anyone remember what being a newbie like???

Yes, I remember too. Ok, the guides here are excellent as Orbit-r says and you can put your files together (into an Mpeg) using TMPGEnc (see post by UltimateDBZ above). In order to get the sound though, you may have to change the file suffix from AC3 to MPA. I don't think you have a program that will read an AC3 file directly (at least it doesn't sound like it). TMPGEnc will compile them into an Mpeg file which can be burned by Nero or MYDVD. Note: You should really try using the guide for DVD though, rather than SVCD. Also, you can try vcdhelp.com. They have guides too and sometimes it helps to read a couple before it sinks in. Good Luck.

Yes, we do remember what it is like. In fact, we remember so well the HOURS we spent reading and reading and then reading MORE, that we tend to become offended when someone has obviously not read enough. I'm not trying to be rude here but you really need to understand that, in order to even ask the right questions, you have to have a fundamental understanding of the basics.

All of the information you want is easily found here on the site in the guides. If you had read even the simplist of the guides, you would have known the answer to your question lied in the use of some authoring software. In fact, you may want to study about DVD authoring some so that you have a better understanding of the fundamentals that all of this is based on.

if your computer is crashing with SpruceUp, then remove any overclocking, and maybe lower your memory timings as well.

you say u have 4.5g, but dvd+r/rw will only allow u to put 4.37(or is it 8) on a disc, so u need to cut a little, maybe the end credits.
