I'm not very clear about the distinction between VOB and MPG. The output from dvbcut are certainly valid MPG files. I can write them directly to DVD and play them without further processing on my domestic machine - but not with menus etc, and my machine always shows them in 4:3 format regardless of the layout of the MPG file. I use TMPG because I want to get conventional menus etc, and the DVD structure required to support them. And the MPG files involved in the creation always get "converted" to VOBs (whatever that means) and not always 1-to-1 . I have seen references to DVDauthor on linux and I wouldbe perfectly happy to use it but the documentation I have suggests it is a bit incomplete/not useful for full DVD creation. But perhaps I am not looking at the most recent version. I'll take another look. > Also there must be some problem inside the DVBCUT muxer, but > it works fine for a good fraction of cases. And certainly better than avidemux2, which I find usually loses the audio sync on terrestrial dvb material. I'm not _complaining_ about dvbcut - I'm very happy with my use of it so far. Thanks for all the good work Sven.
