I am currently working on a DVD montage of clips from DVDs or from DVB recordings. I have the clips ready to go but I am having difficulty joining them together because some have different bitrates, due to being recorded from different sources. They are all MPEG-2, but some are from DVDs, some from freeview, where some channels use different audio bitrates to others. Of course I could go through them one by one with TMPGEnc, de-muxing, re-coding the resulting MP3 file, then re-muxing, but we are talking about nearly a hundred clips here, some only a few seconds long. Is there a program that will batch encode the video/audio in all these clips, to convert them into "DVD friendly" bitrates so that they can be joined together?

"They are all MPEG-2, but some are from DVDs, some from freeview, where some channels use different audio bitrates to others."
If you don't mind having each of them as a separate TITLE on one DVD, you can use "TMPGEnc DVD Author" (Different than "TMPGEnc" and "TMPGEncPlus") to readily accomplish this (by loading EACH clip as a "new track", using the "Add new track" radiobutton.

good idea. thanks, I will try that.
will the DVD player be able to cope with all the chopping and changing between clips? I don't want there to be any pause between them. Also, as I haven't yet decided on the running order of the clips, will DVD Author allow me to preview/experiment with the running order so that changes can be made throughout, before I actually author the VOB files?
thanks.Comment
