Ok now i thought this would be easy record a show then burn to dvd to watch later. Yep it recorded fine, but how do i get it to work on a DVD ? I have used a program called PVAStrumento which i guess has cleaned it up to mpeg2 ? So now what do i do, i have an mpg file which plays fine on the pc but now want to make it into a dvd that will play on a normal player. I have Nero 6 and have tried just doing DVD Movie and that wants VOB files. I have tried CDR and trying VCD and that says i need to buy a plugin. Is there an easy way i can sort this out ?, before i go and buy 10 cans of lager to rest my head
[bold]A DVD is made up of files like this :[/bold] VIDEO_TS BUP 16,384 VIDEO_TS IFO 16,384 VIDEO_TS VOB 43,008 VTS_01_0 BUP 77,824 VTS_01_0 IFO 77,824 VTS_01_0 VOB 1,695,744 VTS_01_1 VOB 1,073,565,696 VTS_01_2 VOB 1,048,565,696 VTS_01_3 VOB 1,048,565,696 VTS_01_4 VOB 589,365,248 VTS_02_0 BUP 18,432 VTS_02_0 IFO 18,432 VTS_02_0 VOB 43,008 VTS_02_1 VOB 6,014,976 If you have a mpeg2 file then just run that through TMPGEnc DVD Author & it'll convert to files like the ones shown above mate. Your nearly there ; ) herb.
Ukabc, You need to author the MPEG2 files to DVD format using a DVD authoring software, like TMPGEnc DVD Author suggested by Herb, or DVD Lab http://www.afterdawn.com/articles/archive/dvdlab_review.cfm
