2 avi files on a DVD--How can I......

[mvill]

Hi guys, thanks for your previous help regarding my burner.
I'm having some issues regarding the following....

I have 2 movies in avi format on 1 DVD.

My questions are as follows...
1) How can I convert them to "VOB" (??-i think that's it) files to allow them to play on my dvd player(s).
2) How can I split the 2 movies to put them on separate dvd's...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thnx.

First use TMPGEnc to convert the .avi files to compatible .mpeg files.

Then use TMPGEnc DVD Author (A different program than TMPGEnc) to create a compliant structured DVD from the .mpeg files that TMPGEnc created.

To be a little more specific:

1) Use "TMPGEnc" (or "TMPGEncPlus") to convert the .AVI (DivX-compressed or otherwise) to compliant MPEG2-for-DVD format - Use "TMPGEnc's" DVD wizard/template to accomplish this

2) Use "TMPGEnc DVD Author" (a different program than "TMPGEnc") to easily create the required additional DVD files and structure (and chapters and a menu, if you wish)


**If the combined filesize of the DVD "package" written to your hard drive is greater than 4.37Gb, use DVD Shrink (or similar) to compress


If your O/S is either Win2000 or WinXP, TMPGEnc DVD Author can also burn your DVD. Otherwise, use NERO to burn in "DVD-Video" mode
(As an alternative to "TMPGEnc DVD Author", you could use "DVDLab")

Thank You setarip. As I was pressed for time I didn't have time to go in to detail.
