Hi All!
Just wondering if anyone has had any experience in putting EyeTV
recordings into DVD Studio Pro? I have a EyeTV 400, so it records
Digital TV.
When I go to export the recordings, it has an option for DVDSP
(outputs .mpa [audio] and .mpv [video]). The .mpa files go straight
into DVDSP, but the video files come up wrong format.
Anybody know what I should be doing to get these recordings to work?
The built in DVD encoder in Toast is hopeless (and takes a long time),
whereas I *assume* I already have a pre-encoded version of the
recordings for DVDSP.
Well, I have discovered the problem. The bit rate of the recordings is
at 15000 Kbps, which is way above the 9800 Kbps limit of DVDSP. From
what I can gather, the latets EyeTV boxes allow you to adjust the bit
rate at which the recordings are saved. Unfortunately for me, the 400
I have does not.
Does anyone know of some software that will reduce the bit rate of the
recordings. Everything else is fine except for the bit rate.
Seeya
Rod!
