Title: MPEG-4 -> DVD
Post by: Almeidaboo on April 29, 2006, 06:15:53 PM

So yeah, I downloaded Silverchair's Live From Faraway Stables and it came in 2 MPEG-4 files (2 DVDs it is yay! =D). Now I wanna record the in a DVD...Does anyone knows how to do it, I mean, which program is better and stuff??

 Doesn't you need to change the format?

Yeah nero.

Easy and you don't need all that styling crap.

And I do think formatting is optional.

By format I mean:
 It's a .mpeg, does DVD uses .mpeg? Don't we need to change another .something ?

 EDIT: Just checked it. You'll have to use a DVD-format converter, there is Nero Vision or something, but from what I undertood you won't be able to make a DVD without a hardware to burn especificaly DVDs. But I could be wrong.

Yeah, I´ll take my HD to my friends place and put eveything in his computer...Hm, but converting might be a pain in the *** huh...Well, it´s worth the try! And I´ll probably come back to you guys soon, cause I´m getting Green DAy's Bullet in a Bible, and it comes in .avi....

 You should look for .rmvb files, thei're way smaller. I'm downloading some One Piece episodes, a .avi would take one day, at best, to download, but downloadng .rmvb, it takes half an hour, at max.

 I can't find any converter to it, though.

Hehe, I recently discovered those too. I had the latest South Park episode in 5 minutes, instead of the useal 28. :P

.rmvb are good, but I heard they're not good on HDTV.

.rmvb don´t have as good quality as the others...These I´m getting are DVD rips, so they´re pretty much perfect sound and videowise...RMVB is for animes: watch and discard. I got the whole BECK series in rmvb and deleted it. I´ll get it again, in good resolution, to make a DVD with it!

 The quality is pretty good for me. Both video and sound.

Yeah, pretty much. But the resolution isn´t suited for TV and stuff...It´d look shabby.

 Dunno why... mine looks perfect, even better than .avi

I used to have an avi/mpeg > DVD converter. Was something with cucosoft.

Google it, you'll probably find something.

 I did find a .rmvb > .avi converter. But then I'd have to convert again to DVD and it was with a huge, ugly watermark in the middle of the screen.

I like .rm files (same thing as rmvb just differant name). Anyway, its about a mb a minute usually. With my dial up connection, I can download a 20 minute show in an hour. Yeah, the quality is really bad, but I'd rather be able to download 24 crappy espides of something than one good quality episodes of something in a day.

I found an rm to avi converter (I think it was called rm to avi converter :p) anyway, it worked, but it didn't work too well. So instead of burning it to a video dvd, I burn it to a data dvd, put it in my computer, and run it out to my tv from there. If I do that, I can put 150 shows on a dvd, where if I converted it, I could put around 12 shows on a dvd. Plus half of the time, the files wouldn't even burn to a dvd for some reason.

Back to converting things. Nero is good, but a lot of nero programs won't let you burn things to dvd that aren't already converted, nero express for example won't let you (I think). Just get nero ultra and you'll be able to convert and burn stuff.

Download Shareaza, to make downloading things quicker, then download cucusoft MPEG/AVI to DVD/VCD/SVCD/MPEG Converter (pro version) v7.07 and get the serial for it(if you download it with shareaza it should come with it already, download nero 7 and get serial, now make sure you have a dvd rw burner or other ones and buy a dvd rw.  Go to www.peerweb.org or www.shareheaven.net to download the movies with shareaza.  Once the movie is finished downloading start coverting it with cucusoft(make sure its avi or mpeg)

 -How to use cucusoft, at top tabs click on to dvd, load up your video where it says open/add to the right, where it says output format choose pal and then click on convert and burn(make a folder that the coverted files will go into, while its coverting turn preview off for faster results and when it gets to the burning to dvd rw stage, exit out of cucusoft, this will make it so you still have the coverter files but didn't burn it, now open nero 7 startsmart and click on the start tab and then  make your own dvd and wait for it to load, click on add video files and find the coverted files and select all and open(start from top to bottom when selecting more then one), it will ask you to covine them click yes or ok, wait until it finishes and then create chapters, a menu screen and then burn it(make sure a dvd rw is in disc tray)remember to keep it at pal format and that it is burning to the disc drive that your dvd rw is in, wait and it will pop out when it finishes.
-You can watch this on the 360, and other various dvd players(some don't work)i have a very cheap dvd player from walmart and it takes the dvd rws

 I think it's much easier to pay to my cinema teacher to burn it to me. He does it for a living.
