Can someone PLEASE give me some advice on this, after going through the AfterDawn tutorial for the DVD2svcd so that I can convert a divx coded avi to a burnable DVD format I get the following error message: "TGpHugeFile(file extension):File Not Open!" Do I need to compress the original file?? Any advise would be greatly appreciated!!!
I don't know about the software you are using, and I don't see it very often mentioned. I would instead use DVD Flick to make your avi's into a DVD: http://beginwithsoftware.com/videoguides/dvd-flick-guide.html It is free and works great.
Thank you very much! The program successfully burned a usable DVD, took a couple of hours, but hey it still worked There's one glitch though. About every second the video seems to "stall." The audio always stays in sync with the video though. The original avi file didn't do this, so I think I may've had a setting wrong. I made sure to check that I used the same FPS setting as the avi file when I went through the set-up. Any ideas as to what could've caused this? Again, thank you for your reply...
I had exactly the same problem a couple of days ago with a WMV file and DVD Flick. I actually don't mess with the FPS. All I do is selec the encoding mode "Best" or "Normal", one-pass or 2-pass. Then I make sure the correct format is chosen-PAL or NTSC. The rest I leave all on default/automatic. My problem with freezing every few seconds, it was because I multi-tasked during the process-internet, downloading some stuff...
Thanks, I think I'll try again and see if it helps. It's not a huge problem, it just starts to get old after a while. I actually made an effort to not do anything else on the computer while this was running, except I did go into the control panel and change the screen saver time, I don't think that would be enough to disturb the process?
I don't know how much that has to do with it, I just know that I used the same WMV file, shut down LimeWire, and didn't do anything during conversion, and came out a beautiful looking picture. Leave all FPS on default/automatic, just make sure you select the right format-PAL/NTSC
