    D2SRoba\DVD2SVCD

    Hiya :) Just installed the new DVD2SVCD V1.2.2 B1 with the plugin DS2Roba 3.50. During the installation of D2SRoba, you have an option of transcoders: 'Rejig.exe' or the 'Bundled Requant'. Which of these should I choose? I tossed my coin and went for the rejig option but it reported it...

    Invisible 5GB's Space used

    Hi :) I'm using XP Home and very puzzled to why 5GB's are taken up in the directory below. Yet there is nothing there? Is it something to do with System Restore? If so, could this be reduced? I have another PC on XP Home and nothing like this shows up...very strange! C:\Documents and...

    Vfapiconv-en

    Hi :) A similar thread to the previous 'MPG to DVDR', with the route of creating a pseudo AVI with VFAPICONV-EN. I read a thread of Chickenman's at another site using this method and it seemed quite easy and straight forward. I now have my small avi but unable to encode it. My usual method of...

    Norton AV 2004 Killer

    I was all praises for this prog, after all, when I first installed it, it detected 4 viruses, all successfully delt with! But However, and a BIG BUT, I was puzzled to see a few hundred files in the protected recycle bin that I hadn't deleted but were apparently there as protected files. Being...

    Joining audio

    Hi :) I'm trying to encode a 3hour38min PCM audio file demuxed from a dvd to AC3. The audio failed to encode in DVD2SVCD, just leaving an extracted audio of 2.4GB. SoftEncoder spits it out, HeadAC3he also complains about it and Besweet gives me poor results. My way around this is to split the...

    mpeg2 incompatible

    Hi :) I'm Trying to join two SVCD Mpeg2's. But one seems to be incompatible with the other, as reported by TMPEnc. I think there's a difference in bitrate. Both are 480x480 NTSC. Would it be a case of rencoding? If so, how and what software could i use? Thanxxx Emma...

    Pioneer 105 crashing

    I've had this drive for some time now and just lately it's been mis-behaving. When doing dvd backups using DVD Decrypter it tends to crash around 66%. Using Nero, it would complete the burn 100% but then I would get the message "Could not perform end of disc-at-once" The firmware is 1.33...

    Hiya Just received a new PC and checking everything's working ok, I noticed in system properties my memory is displayed as 480mb RAM, yet I have 2x256 modules installed, that of course is 512 total. So where did the other 32mb's go? Is this normal? I do have 128mb graphics (on board), could...

    I was hoping to back up my daughters PS2 games with either Primo or Record Now Max, but unfortunately my drive isn't supported. Anyone had success with alternative software? Thought about trying DVD Decryptor, but can't test as yet, as I need to chip the console. Incidently, she has the new...

    DVD Shrink 1st time user.

    Hi I thought I would give this little prog a try from my usual dvd back up method of using DVD2SVCD for encoding and Maestro for authoring. While I get superb quality results (main movie only) with my usual method, it is not 100% flawless. One of the down sides is that sometimes the all...
