Creating movies for encoding to DVD

2006/04/11 22:27:00

I have a couple of movies taken using my camera and I wanted to add them into a DVD.
I had a look from the mplayer docs and found the chapter on using mencoder to make DVD quality movies giving me the command below:

mencoder -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd -vf scale=720:576,harddup\
-srate 48000 -af lavcresample=48000 -lavcopts\ vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vrc_maxrate=9800:\ vbitrate=5000:keyint=15:acodec=ac3:abitrate=192:aspect=4/3 -ofps 25\ -o outfile.mpeg *.MOV

This post is mostly just for me to remember for future reference!
