I have followed and read loads of the threads on this list regarding ways of doing this, in particular the recent big thread where Martin B improved the mythburn scripts. For various reasons I would actually prefer to this on my Windows box. (Please - no flaming!)
However, regardless of which OS I choose to do this on, and despite the very excellent threads that have gone before, I still don't really understand the principles behind burning to DVD. My experience so far has been with a 90 minute recording which was transcoded to MPEG4; I then cut the commercials out and ran nuvexport to convert to MPEG2. However, I seem to have big problems getting this to be edit/burn-able - eg audio sync problems, freezes in win media player, TMPGenc fails 3/4 way through, VirtualDub doesn't like the format etc. So basically I've tried heaps and got nowhere. What I need is some high level guidance on how to go about this. I picked up in the threads that one of the big issues is that cutting out commercials seems to cause audio/video sync issues but ProjectX somehow comes to the rescue here. Also, the format that the recording is in makes a big difference (so I'm going to avoid transcoding any of my DVB-T recordings that I think I might want to burn later). Can anyone give a 10,000 ft overview of what the process is for me so I know I'm at least heading in the right direction? Something like, for example: 1) Run ProjectX to demux to separate audio & video files 2) Cut commercials from recording 3) Run ProjectX to remux 4) Convert to SVCD 5) Burn to disc Hopefully the example shows you where I don't understand and the sort of info I need to get going down the right track!
