Couple of questions on Moviestacker & TOK. First If I want to put 2 or three movies on one DVD-R what settings in Moviestacker would I use? and which template would I select? In TOK would I check the MPEG 2 block regardless of the template? I will be using DVDiT to put it all together. Comments and suggestion please. thank You

Bud

Hi there!

Its simple!

First u must know in what for a quality u want to encode. A DVD is a large Medium. It can hold 4,380 MB. So, check the legth of ur movies. An 120 Min movie will be sometimes larger than a 90 min film.

If u´ve short films in 16:9 u can use a better Quality.

How to do it:

First create a project with DVD2AVI 1.76. (Demux the audio tracks u want to AC3 files!!!).

Encode the AC3 Files with besweet. (It must be 48.000 KHz!!!!!. The bitrate should be min. 160 kb.)

So now u´ve all ur audiotracks in MP2 (48.000 Khz). and ur 3 *.d2v-files.
Start MovieStacker.

Its DVD so coose the right DVD resolutions:

3/4 DVD full (544x576 (or 480)) for AR: 2,35:1 movies

3/4 DVD small (528x576 (or 480)) for AR: 1,77:1 movies

1/2 DVD (352x576 (or 480)) for AR: 4:3 movies

Use the normal KDVD Filtersettings of MOviestacker:

Sample Script for 352x576:
Code:
LoadPlugin("C:\Programme\MovieStacker\Filters\MPEG2Dec.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Programme\MovieStacker\Filters\STMedianFilter.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Programme\MovieStacker\Filters\GripFit_preview.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Programme\MovieStacker\Filters\UnFilter.dll")
LoadPlugin("C:\Programme\MovieStacker\Filters\LegalClip.dll")

Mpeg2Source("Enter here ur source")
LegalClip()
GripCrop(352, 576)
GripSize(resizer="LanczosResize")
STMedianFilter(8, 32, 0, 0, 8, 32)
UnFilter(50, 50)
TemporalSmoother(1, 1)
MergeChroma(blur(1.5))
MergeLuma(blur(0.2))
GripBorders()
LegalClip()
Start ToK

Choose one of ur avs-Scripts and open it in ToK.
Go to the section 'Predition & Spacing' and enter ur wanted filesize at spacing by using 'free'.
For example: U´ve 4,380 MB free on ur DVD. So u can splitt this space to 3 same file sizes. So enter 1.460.000.000 Bytes.

Go to Audio & More an enter the path to ur encoded MP2-File for this movie.

At more enter this for the GOP: 1, 12, 2, 1, 25.
Go to Main. Choose Mpeg 2 and activate no muxing! Hit Start and ToK encode ur movie in the wanted filesize. Must be a nice quality!

Edit ur DVD with TMPGEnc DVD Author for example:

Open ur files with add and choose the right audiotrack for the movie.
Create a menü with chapter or so and create the DVD-Files. Burn this with ur favorite burnig-programm like Nero 6...
