And set cranking. :) If you already have DVD compliant VOB, my stuff will not apply. If you don't then this is what you have to do. mencoder -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd:tsaf \ -vf scale=720:576,harddup -srate 48000 -af lavcresample=48000 \ -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vrc_maxrate=9800:vbitrate=5000:\ keyint=15:vstrict=0:acodec=ac3:abitrate=192:aspect=16/9 -ofps 25 \ -o movie.mpg movie.avi Now movie.mpg contains MPEG-2 video befitting the DVD profile. Now just use a simple config file with dvdauthor and write it with growisofs. Something like this perhaps? $ cat foo.xml <dvdauthor> <vmgm /> <titleset> <titles> <pgc> <vob file="movie.mpg" /> </pgc> </titles> </titleset> </dvdauthor> $ dvdauthor -x foo.xml -o myvideo dvdauthor will create a directory "myvideo" with dvd structure that can be directly given to growisofs or you could create an ISO with mkisofs with the -dvd-video switch. Hope this helps. -Girish
