If you have Nero 6, you can use NeroVision Express to convert the AVI files, author the DVD and burn the disc. Very easy to use. On my AMD Athlon XP2000, it takes about an hour to convert a 4 GB AVI file. Be aware the image quality might not be as good as with TMPGEnc...
daba, excellent news i will try it and compare it to the other program. is there a guide to do all this with nero or does it convert, and author automatically or what do i have to do to get this done and burned?? thanks pat
I've also used NVE to do some AVI conversions with very pleasing results (combined AVI, MPEG and VOB's together at times also). The latest was an Xvid, I added a Dolby Digital logo VOB (just for grins), merged them, and created chapter stops. Very nice. The only thing I've noticed is NVE seems to insist on creating a rather unattractive menu. To eliminate this I open the NVE files in Recode to eliminate it and do the final burn. The only problem I seem to have is sometimes Recode can't open the NVE files (get an error). I then use IC8 to eliminate the menu and do the final burn. No 5.1 though, but if you have the room, the LCPM audio option sounds good.
lol, thanks but this is basically greek to me as im a newbie at this. i wouldnt know what the menufile to delete looks like let alone what it is! when i open the nve does it give me steps to follow from beginning to burn?? or is there a guide somewhere that details what to do using nve? thanks pat
NeroVision is wizard oriented. Very easy to use. For your matter: - run it, - select "Make a new DVD" or something, - import your video file(s) - click Next a few times (it will build a default menu). That's it !
