  'F-U' is a commonly used colloquialism in New York City, however it
does not indicate mastery or expertise. :)

RE: How to make an audio CD with images also?

2008-10-16 Thread Lisa Kachold

O Contraire' my Crow Footed friend!

http://www.linux.com/feature/113859  answered those with solutions!

1) The http://www.gnu.org/software/vcdimager/ Tool will do what he wants with 
expansive mastering (referenced in the link http://www.linux.com/feature/113859)

2) Under DVD (and Joe addressed it via his question in general terms) (not CD) 
[as the link exlains]:
Master and record a DVD Video image

In some cases, you might have a Video DVD stored as a series of
normal files in your filesystem, perhaps from some DVD authoring
software, and want to write this to a disc for usage in your
DVD-player.



To do this, we yet again turn to growisofs for help, which
as usual provides an easy solution to our problem.



In the example below, the disc-root refers to a directory containing any, or 
both of
the AUDIO_TS/ and VIDEO_TS/ directories. The main difference
from writing an ISO image is the -dvd-video option, that instructs
growisofs that it should prepare the disc to be used as a DVD Video disc. 
DVD video image mastering tools will create the video and audio (also discussed 
in the link):Converting video-files to (S)VCD

Sometimes you might have a set of MPEG streams from which you would like to
create a (Super) VideoCD (SVCD or VCD) to be recorded with CDRDAO and used in
your VCD/DVD-player. To do this, we will use the GNU VCDImager software.


Use the following syntax for VCDImager to create a set of bin/cue-files
from an MPEG stream. Replace “type” with the appropriate
type for the output image, based on the type MPEG-stream you are
recording. The more common types are 'vcd' for mpeg1-streams,
and 'svcd' for mpeg2-streams. VCDImager will notify you
if it believes that you have selected the wrong type for the given
stream.

Syntax: vcdimager -t type --update-scan-offsets video.mpg


The following example will create a bin/cue-image in SuperVCD format, containing
the stream found in myshow.mpg. (That in this case is an MPEG2
stream)


[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# vcdimager -t svcd --update-scan-offset myshow.mpg



The MPEG streams needs to be in somewhat appropriate formats to be used
as (S)VCDs, but this is beyond the scope of this guide. There is more
information about this on VCDImager's website. (See the “Software”
section)

  Is there a way to make an audio CD with both a sound track and
  a video slide show so that it will play on either an audio CD player
  without the visual elements, or will play in a CD/DVD player to have
  both the audio track and a sync'd slide show play with it
 From: Lisa Kachold [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  http://www.linux.com/feature/113859
 
 That's a general guide to burning and does nothing to address the
 specific question.  AFAICT, there is no way to do this in the general
 case.  You'd really have to burn a multisession disc, put all the
 audio tracks in session 1, and put some sort of data track in session
 2.  (The vast majority of CDDA players are not multisession aware, so
 they wouldn't see the data track.)  Then the DVD player would have to
 be aware of session 2, and do something sensible with the data there.
 This is totally not guaranteed; the most that you can expect of them
 is that they play movie DVDs (not CDs) or [S]VCDs (different structure
 from CDDA or data CDs.)
 
 If you make an MPEG-2 stream out of the video components and the
 soundtrack, you could make an SVCD and play that on any given DVD
 player, but it wouldn't give you anything in a CDDA player.
