Hello everyone! I have about 10 xvid movies here on my computer. I would like to burn them to a dvd that I can play in a set top box. I know I need to convert them to mpeg-2 before I can author the dvd. how do I convert the file, and then how would I author the dvd. Thanks!
The right tool is transcode (www.ytranscoding.org). There are packages for SuSE on packman's site, but unfortunately the current version is not working, so you'll need to compile from source. On that site, you can find a link to a script named AviToVob, which makes just this - converts avi files to ready to burn DVD: http://inferno.slug.org/cgi-bin/wiki?AviToVob Cheers -- -- Svetoslav Milenov (Sunny)
