Problem Using NeroVision to convert AVI files to DVD format

[kitddcor]

Hi all - I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm having problems using NeroVision Express 2 to convert AVI files into DVD format. The conversion seems to be working, with the exception of two things: the Video_TS_01_0.ifo file is only 0kb and the main Video_TS IFO, BUP and VOB files are 0 kb. I've done some reading and tried two things: I copied the Video_TS_01_0.bup file into the Video_TS_01_0.ifo file. After doing this I got a video reallocation failure. I downloaded IMGtool to try to fix this, but it didn't work. Then, I downloaded IFOedit to try to recreate the Video_ts_01_0.ifo file and go the same error message about the file allocation.

Any suggestions would be welcomed!

nero vision is not very good with AVI, try something else

Try this. Avi2Dvd basic guide.

Thanks - is there any way to get multiple avi's in one job and create a menu for them? or do I have to do each avi as a job and have no menu?

You have to convert each avi and just create a menu using tmpgenc, I believe is the easiest way to do it

again, thanks for the suggestions. Do you know if there is a way to adjust the transcoding quality is a little lower and the finished product will take up less space? On nerovision, there was an option to do custom quality setting and adjust the bit rate. There is something that looks like this on AVI2dvd, but it says audio bit rate, so i don't know it will do the same thing.

If you go to step 3 encoders, you will see NuEnc. Tick it if you want high quality. But I wouldn´t expect more from a free program.
