Hi Jeff,
Thank you very much for this useful information. It seems you are an expert in
video editing. I hope i dont annoy you by asking silly questions coz i'm very
new to this editing world.
As i said before i'm using Adobe Premiere Pro 7.0 and when i select File -->
Export --> Adobe Media Encoder it gives me several option:
MPEG1
MPEG1-VCD
MPEG2
MPEG2-DVD
MPEG2-SVCD
Qucik Time
Real Media
Windows Media
I wanna know which option should i select in order to prepare content suitable
for buring a DVD that can be played on set top DVD player. If MPEG2-DVD is the
option you were referring to in your mail then which sub option should i pick
from this list:
PAL DV High Quality 4MB VBR 2 Pass
PAL DV High Quality 7MB CBR 1 Pass
PAL DV High Quality 7MB VBR 2 Pass SurCode for Dolby Digital 5.1
PAL DV Low Quality 4MB CBR 1 Pass
PAL Progressive High Quality 4MB VBR 2 Pass
PAL Progressive High Quality 7MB CBR 1 Pass
* I'm in India and we have PAL system against NTSC of USA and other countries.
All this is so confusing to me and i'm not able to select a proper option. I
understand these options have different meanings and purpose but i just wanna
select the most general kind of option out of these.
Thanks
Amit

Subject: [AP] AVI to DVD
<<I had asked a question in my previous post regarding rendering the video
and i've recieved very helpful responses.
I'm able to encode my video to one complete AVI file which when played on
Real player works very well but when i try to Export it to DVD the progress
bar gets stuck after sometime and i'm not even able to cancel the project.
I would like to know that after rendering and encoding the video to a single
AVI, do we still have any file format incompatibility issues with the video?
Isn't that complete AVI clean and smooth enough to be used for buring a
blank DVD? What are the things to be considered for burning a DVD?>>
Amit,
"file format incompatibility issues with the video" is putting it mildly.
AVI is NOT a file format used in "DVD-video".
When I use the phrase "DVD-video" I am referring to DVD's that will play in
a set-top "DVD player".
"DVD-video" files aren't AVI, they are MPEG-2 and they have to be "authored"
properly in order to meet "book standard" DVD-video specifications in order
for the player to recognize the disc as a "DVD-video".
If you are trying to copy an AVI file to a DVD what you will end up with is
a "DVD-data" disc. It will play in a DVD-ROM drive on a computer but not in
a standard set top player.
Also, take a look at the file size.
Chances are your AVI file is WAY WAY WAY TOO BIG to fit on a DVD.
RealPlayer is a very poor choice to use for checking files. Use Windows
Media Player or Zoom Player.
The only thing RealPlayer is good for is RealMedia files that stream on the
web from a RealMedia server.
Your DVD burning program should be able to convert your AVI file and encode
it to MPEG-2 and author the proper file folders and structures and it should
also tell you if the finished MPEG-2 file (from the AVI) is small enough to
FIT ON YOUR DISC.
Good luck with your project,
JeffH
