Dvix to dvd how..?

[FAIRLIGHT]

Be gentle ok..! this is my first post hopefully of many, I have been backing up and cracking cd's for years but just recently I purchased a dvd-rw and I have a vast ammount of movies on disc and on my hardrive which are in either the dvix encoded format or the wma format and we are talking big films 1-2gig plus on my drive, is there any way to re-author these back into a dvd format thus making them playable on a household player

One set of procedures would be:

1) Use "TMPGEnc" 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" v.1.5.11.37 (a different program than "TMPGEnc) to easily create the required additional DVD files and structure (and chapters and a menu, if you wish). 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


Let us know of your success ;>}

My pleasure ;>}



"is there anything I can do for the wma as far as changing back to dvd are is it the end of the line for this type."

I presume you mean WMV. TMPGEnc will handle SOME versions of WMV (v.7 and v.8) - however, I don't know about v.9...
