I have been trying to convert several movies recently from DVD to DivX format without much luck. I have run into several different problems, and if someone would be so kind as to help me out with one or all of them, that would be great.
My System:
800mhz PIII FCPGA on Intel MB
384 MB 133mhz Micron SDRAM
GeForce3 64MB DDR Video Card
WinXP Professional
1.) I initially attempted to convert using DVDx 1.8a. I set the buffer to 80 MB so it would not tear apart my DVD drive (i didnt have the space to rip the whole DVD). I first tried Reservoir Dogs, and after a little fiddling got a sample. When I tried the whole movie, it had an error in the middle stating that there was no audio stream, and to continue would just fill it with zeros. I said ok, and it worked fine. When I checked out the final clip, audio was out of sync. Dceided I'd just try again and deleted it all.
2.) I then tried using Xmpeg 4.5 with the DVD plugin and was able to open the dvd and view frames, but when i selected the divx plugin and tried to convert it, it gave me an error saying "An Error occured when trying to generate the file. Check that youre not using the output file or the program is set up correctly." To my knowlege, it is set up just fine...
3.) I also encountered the same problem as 2 after i ripped the dvd to my hard drive using CladDVD XP 1.3, SmartRipper 2.41, and DVDDecrypter 3.0.0.17.
4.) Lastly I tried using DVDx once again for Trainspotting after ripping to the hard drive, and the movie went exactly as problem number 1, only this time i tried using VirtualDub to resync the audio (using the method described in the articles at Divx-digest). There were no differences in frame rate between audio and video so i tried to just guess. I knew the audio was ahead of the video so i adjusted the start offset over and over without any change. Then at a certain point (beyond 56 frames i believe) the video would be suddenly far ahead of the audio. At that point i gave up.
5.) Also, while encoding the Trainspotting DVD, DVDx said that the FPS was 29.9?? (whatever) and when i tried to set the DivX to the same FPS it would get an audio stream error (see my post to Stent77 http://forum.digital-digest.com/show...&threadid=7281 )
Hopefully someone out there is kind enough to bother to read all this and help me out. Thanks.
