ok had my first go at moviestacker and boy I have no idea what the hell I'm doin, unti trying moviestacker I have been trotting by merrily using the scripts mentioned on the forum. I wanted to try and do a kvcd right from scratch no scripts premade. So anyway will there be a moviestacker to kvcd guide on the way??

i had a go at making a small MovieStacker guide- not thorough but might be useful for quick reference

let me know if there's mistakes- I'll fix it

Looks good ren

Edit: You might want to change Precision to 0.5% on 1st Group of passes in ToK

Oh I'll do that! I thought it was still 1%


Hey thanks!

nice one ren looks really useful.

EDIT: just noticed the tok guide near the end sweet.

really cool friendalunit.

i'm trying to save your guide friend but i
can't load the images ToK1_2 and ToK4_5 in the page.

what happen, is my connection?

i will try again later,i want to save your page

thanks friend

I'm not sure jorel Those images load ok for me- maybe it's the connection.

ren

Hi ren,

A link to your guide is now posted on the main page at the portal ( www.kvcd.net ) on the right side on "Articles"

Thanks!,

@ren,

Nice Guide Images for Tok1_2 and Tok4_5 are not coming in

-bp

hey black prince,

I checked the links of those two and they're ok- maybe it's some sort of bandwidth problem

Any ideas kwag?

ren

The link looks good here too. Your link is fine! All images load.

-kwag

All pictures open for me except the first moviestacker one(first picture in guide)

Great guide (simple and quick)

edit-all images load fine now and have one question in headche3 it says to click #5 resample to 44.1, i learned from following another guide and this isn't done should i start doing it now.

I changed the images from .bmp to .png format so it should load faster. The images went from about 1mb to about 35k each in size

ren

@ren,

Everything works fine now Great Guide. Simple and easy to follow

-bp

thanks friendalunit


your guide load faster and with all images!

is very cool!
i will send this guide to my friends!


put the link in the botton of your posts!
if was mine, i will post with proud, is great .

yep the audio needs to be sampled at 44.100 khz but not the audio for KDVD

cool jorel The problem was the image sizes were too big

Actually, the audio doesn't necessarily need to be 44.1khz for KVCDs. Many dvd players will handle vcd/kvcd's with audio @ 48khz (mine does, as well as a few others I've tried). 48khz audio should sound better (and encode quicker too without the downsampling cycle in heacac3he), so if a person's player will support it, I'd say use it. Afterall, KVCDs are a sorta funky format themselves, so if a player will play KVCDs at all, then it's probably worth a shot trying the non-standard audio too. For newbies though, guides should probably state that they should start out with 44.1khz for compatibility reasons....then they can test whether 48khz works later on when they know what they're doing.

nice guide by the way Ren!...a very welcome addition.

you're right "dc".

the audio in 48k have "proud" basses, clear quality.
new model seems that don't have this problem.

but thinking in newbys, we need litlle samples to give them to test.
some old player don't like 48k,
then after burn a test in cdrw, all can choose what works.
see what happen in my player:
burning svcd in nero with menu(images) and audio 48k,
sometimes i loose the sincro.
in 352x240 all audio bitrates works perfect.
or i remove the menu or change the audio to 44k.
i'm trying to buy a new player to remove this and
some more problems.....i'm searching a new one!

for my surprise,the new model of Semp in Brasil,
don't play standards vcds or svcds...kvcds?...forget! don't work!
and the price is in the stars.
only play dvds,no mp3 too!
well,better is trash this model,don't?
