I have tried producing a 120min CD with little success. I tried the standard guide on the main KVCD site, where we use DVD2AVI as a input to TPMGEnc to produce a m1v file. The movie is 90 minutes long with not alot of action but I end up with a file 1Gig in size. It is quite reasonable to watch at this point though. I then encoded the sound into a mp2 file (I have tried different sampling rates 128K,196) and end up with a couple of hundred K bytes. And it still sounds ok.
However when I mux it together using bbmpeg as an SVCD I end up with rubbish. When played the picture breaks up with the audio and it fails to resink at all (this is all on the pc).
Note: I have had no problems producing KVCDx2 that work really well.
My questions are.
1: Is there an idiot guide to producing 120min CD's?
2. Why is the m1v file so large? If I encode with KVCDx2 template at a higher resolution the file size is not much bigger.
3. I see alot of references to filters (which are not included in the guide) on the forum. How do you use them?
4. These are fantastic templates are there more complete guides on how to use them?
