Hi, I use transcode for video conversions and find it a real swissknife for that.
As written on the man page, "DVD rip is nothing without transcode" so I think you only have to try it with different settings for video codec (-y option), video output bitrate (-w option) and of course video (-Z ) and audio stuffs (switch 48Khz to 44.1Khz and bitrate to 128 or lower...) Of course, you can use DVD RIp for that, but I suggest you to read transcode man page for better understanding of what you are going to do according to your needs. cheers 2006/11/29, Erik Steffl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I have a DVD (PAL system, not sure if it matters, no copy protection) and I'd like to convert it to something that I can upload to youtube (or just send to friends). I am using debian linux system (unstable). I tried dvdrip and cinelerra (from http://www.kiberpipa.org/~minmax/cinelerra/builds/pentium4/) however got nowhere: - DVD rip by dvdrip ok, I get *vob files I can view with e.g. xine (same quality as DVD so I guess that part worked) - dvdrip transcode - I tried several options but avis are of very low quality - cinelerra - tried to export to avi, the video is all blue with broken timing (slows down at a time) any pointers to solutions? Programs to use? Settings? Howtos? TIA erik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
