Description of how to produce a dvd that plays videofiles in any dvd player. This is just one of the many ways of making a dvd. Doing it this way will assemble all video files on the dvd in one title, and make different chapters of them. It will play the files automatically one after the other. It will not produce a menu, but start the (first) film immediately.
It uses tovid: a kind of wizard soft / conversion script that relies on ffmpeg to do the coding. It executes scripts to automatise parts of the encoding process necessary to go from whatever filetype to a proper MPEG2, containing correct audio and videostreams. It allows you to see if your videofiles are suitable for burning on a video dvd with the built programme Idvid, and can write xml files necessary for the VOB file structure via built in program makexml.
For options and help see the man pages of the softwares.
Steps:
1. install:
ffmpeg
tovid (www.tovid.org)
dvdauthor
make sure to install all dependencies
2.
make a compatible mpeg2 of your film:
change working directory to your folder
type:
$ tovid -in (input filename) -dvd -full -pal -out (output filename(no suffix!))
I tried mov and mpeg files, both worked fine.
or make several compatible MPEG2 files from a list of files:
type:
$ tovid-batch -dvd -full -pal -infiles (list of filenames)
- note:
the tovid script will produce and delete a series of temporary files. Make sure to keep an eye on the filesize of the audiodump. I saw that the process of converting a mov file to an MPEG2 stuck, and the audiodump.wav file that should have been deleted kept growing up to 10 G, and would have grown bigger if i would not have quit the program.
3.
control the dvd compatibility of your files:
type:
$ idvid (filename)
The output will give you an analysis of your file(s), including the conclusion whether or not the file is suitable for producing a video dvd
4.
make xml file necessary for dvd file structure:
type:
$ makexml -dvd filename.mpg -out filename(no suffix)
or for a list of files:
type:
$ makexml -dvd -group filename1.mpg filename2.mpg filename3.mpg -endgroup filename(zonder suffix) The result will be an XML: filename.xml.
5. make the filestructure for the dvd:
$ makedvd filename.xml
Makedvd is a script to create a DVD-Video file structure and burn it to DVD it is part of the Tovid suite with: core dvd transcode It creates a disc structure with the following command: dvdauthor -x "/home/peter/Preview.xml" You should end up with a disc structure created in directory: Filename.
6. burn to dvd: You can burn the disc with a command like this: $ makedvd -burn Filename
It will burn with growisofs 5.21 using the following command: growisofs -use-the-force-luke=dao -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvdrw -dvd-video -V "PREVIEW" /home/peter/Preview
