How to: Convert Xvid to DVD using WinAVI
Another very useful tutorial by BULLSHiT unfortunately due to emergence of academia I can only guarantee one post a week again…soo keep an eye out every monday!
STEP 1:
This is the first screen of WinAVI Video Converter. As you can see there are many more conversions you can do except converting to DVD, like Any file to AVI (DivX, XviD), WMV and RealMedia. For this guide, click the button the yellow arrow shows to convert all video formats to DVD!s!
STEP 2:
Now you need to select the file you want to convert to DVD. I am using an XviD file for this guide.Select the file and click Open to proceed.
Note: That the .srt file you see is a subtitles file.Just name it like the movie and put it in the same dir!
STEP 3:
OK here select the output directory (1) which is where you want WinAVI to put the files into (this is any directory of your HDD. Make sure you have at least 5-6GB free on that disc.). Then make sure DVD is selected as the output format and then click Advanced (2).
STEP 4:
This is the DVD options window. In Split Setting (1) you can select the size of the file you want to create. And in the Output Setting (2) (Constant Output quality) makes the file based on the quality you want. In DVD Authoring setting (3) Set chapter length time between the DVD chapters that WinAVI will create. Something like 600secs (10mins) is good here.
Then you select the Target format of the DVD you want to create and the aspect ratio in Video Setting (4). Auto works, but if you are sure then select them yourself. You can also check your input video file properties by clicking File Property. In Encode mode (4) you can select speed or quality. The first one makes the encoding process faster while the second creates better quality. I suggest you use the quality setting as the speed is great in that one too and the DVD looks better. In Audio setting (5), Audio bitrate is the quality of the audio WinAVI will create if the source is Mp3. 224000 should be enough. If your movie contains AC3 sound select Enabled DirectAC3 and the original AC3 audio of your film will be copied in the DVD.After all setting click OK then again OK
STEP 5:
This window will be the next you’ll see. You can open the preview window to see what is being encoded, but that will make the program to do more time, so I suggest you don’t open it. Also you can select to shut down the computer when the conversion is finished if you want. After this step the conversion process is over.
STEP 6:
Finally you can burn your DVD. Since you get back in the main interface select the burn icon and your DVD burner program will launch. Burn the files and your DVD is ready! Enjoy!
