You're lucky! http://inferno.slug.org/cgi-bin/wiki?AviToVob it looks like it does the following: -1. use mencoder to pull the video out of its container format or codec, -2. use mplayer to extract the audio channels into a separate file -3. converts the audio into an MP2 file -4. use transcode to convert the new avi into a VCD/SVCD compliant m2v file -5. use mplex to group the m2v and mp2 file to a full working mpg -6. use dvdauthor to make a legit folder containing the video file, title info, etc. im sure you can modify it to your needs. -7. use mkisofs to create an iso file out of the folder -8. use dvdrecord to burn the fucker. 8 steps in one shell script. not that bad huh. i may bookmark this page for future use. -Ben ================================== Perttu Laine wrote: >Hello! > >I need software to make dvd out of many divx, xvid, mpeg etc. video >files.
