Hiya folks, confused newbie here

[Diogenes7825]

I'm here primarily to try and learn how to use DVD2SVCD. First question:-
How do I just create a video stream from an avi file without it processing the audio as well? I don't want/need the audio that's already on this particular file.

I haven't used DVD2SVCD before, but you could try VirtualDub MP3 Freeze. It's in zipped form near the bottom of the page.

Open VirtualDub MP3 Freeze:
1. Set Video to Direct stream copy.
2. Set Audio to No audio.
3. File>Open video file... and browse to the AVI. Double click the AVI to load it into VirtualDub MP3 Freeze.
4. File>Save AVI... and set the place and a different name for the file that's going to be output.
5. Click on the Save button.

Wait for a few minutes for the processing to finish. The file will now be exactly the same quality, video-wise, but it'll have no audio. Now DVD2SVCD could be used from this point on, to convert the AVI.

TMPGEnc could also be used to convert the AVI to MPEG1/2 etc. To make it so there's no audio, you can select nothing as the Audio source.

No theres is no real way of stopping it processing the audio, but who cares really. All it does it strip out the audio (less than 1 min) then convert it to mp2 audio (5-10min), thats it. So just let it go and do its thing then use the audio you have already to author in with the video file that dvd2svd makes for you.
