I took one of my movies and ripped it with smart ripper, then used Merge Deluxe v1.0 to merge my vob files together (note only 2 merged together at a time) I didn't merge all of them together instead i opened tempeg and for video and audio source i set it to all files and grabbed my merged files one at a time and converted them to mpeg2 WITH ACTUAL DVD QUALITY ! (NO LOSS) ......................OK MY QUESTION ARE THERE ANY TOOLS AVAILABLE TO COMPRESS MY FINAL MERGED MOVIE.MPEG ? IT IS STILL ABOUT 4 GIGABYTES. MY GOAL IS TO MAKE ABOUT 5-10 COMPRESSED MPEGS AND MAKE A MENU AND BURN IT TO DVD+R USING AHEAD NERO ! ANYONE WHO CAN HELP , IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED ! I AM ALSO WILLING TO SHARE ANY AQUIRED KNOWLEDGE OF DVD BURNING ! SO FAR TEMPEG IS THE BEST VOB TO MPEG2 CONVERSION TOOL I HAVE FOUND !
Warnin', Caps lock on= SHOUTING! Please edit your post or I will. If you wan't to "encrypt" your vob files after dvd rippin', use DVD2One. If you wan't to convert to SVCD (MPEG2)to cd-r, I recommend this guide. http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?s=8e1f7017dd365d1f9df0d34683409e76&threadid=59484 If you wan't to backup dvd2dvd-r , I recommend this guide. http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?s=8e1f7017dd365d1f9df0d34683409e76&threadid=62671 CCE is highly recommended for encoding MPEG2 format, TMPEnc for MPEG1. CCE is the fastest of the 2. Shoey
Sorry about the caps ! This still doesnt answer my question my mpeg files have a perfect dvd quality but they are just to big i need some good info on how to compress them further without loosing the quality i have so strived for .
SNAKE101, I answered your question by recommending another route to backup SVCD. You're taking "the long way home" and if you try the guides I provided, you'll find the methods [bold]much[/bold] easier than the route your going. Shoey
