Hi all,

for hours I tried to solve the task of converting a DVD into an mpeg2 using transcode. I tried the ffmpeg export module with the mpeg2 format.

transcode -i /media/DVDVOLUME -y ffmpeg -F mpeg2 -o res

The first thing I do not understand is, that two result files a created: "res" and "res.m2v". The first is rather small compared to the second.

Somewhere I read that the second file is an mpeg2 video file. What is the first file? Somewhere else I read that multiplexing is necessary to create an mpeg2 file afterwards. After many trials I arrived at the following steps

transcode -i /media/DVDVOLUME -y ffmpeg -F mpeg2 -o res -m audio
mplex -f 3 -r 5000 -o res.mpeg audio

Unfortunatly the result is less than unsatisfactory.

Can someone help me?
