SoCal VF 2009 DVD progress

224 minutes, 39 seconds. That's a lot of footage! Gonna use bitrate calculator and get my settings.

 

Well I'll be damned, it's coming out before FS! I lost the bet.
However it's great that it's finally being released soon, good job with your hard work on it.

 

Settings get! In 2011 encoding is beginning. All my mpeg-2's are belong to you.

My NEW foe:

"Application failed to return a video frame. Canceling the operation"

It's random.

I have searched for (and implemented) fixes. We'll see how it goes. Six chapters encoded. Still some more to go.

 

may I suggest in the future you host streaming events instead of making DVDs?

 

You may suggest that.

 

I have done so.

your volley, sir.

 

I have read only an inquiry of permission to suggest.


In related news, the Team Battle is encoded. Now processing the Singles Tournament Interviews.

Next up are ten Singles Tournament vids.

After that I'll make the DVD menu and burn the first DVD.

 

OK. All vids encoded to DV standards (mpeg2 for DVD). Fucking iDVD doesn't LIKE mpeg2. I was up till 2:45 am today and discovered a fix. I went to sleep before trying to implement it. Now I understand the fix and will go after it soon. Here it is if you're curious... Fucking with DVD TS_Folders so I don't have to re-encode my shit (that's my name for it, anyway).

And a big fuck you to iDVD menus, too. However, I've now gotten the best of them. You will see.

 

Adobe or GTFO.

Good job on this, Plague. The community appreciates your dedication and hard work.

 

Do not own the DVD Studio Pro. I thought iDVD would be easy and I liked the menus. Almost there.

 

Learning a software while doing a major project is a guaranteed way to give yourself headaches. However, it is the best way to learn a piece of software. Trial by fire kinda thing.

 

That's what I did with Premiere Pro CS3. It was worth it.

 

I thought CS3 supported Blu-Ray/DVD output. why did you choose to not use it?

 

Premiere Pro doesn't do menus. Its only really for editing. Finalizing a disc would require dvd authoring software such as Adobe Encore. Which I own, come to think of it. Plague if you need any help with the project let me know.

 

Thanks for the offer. I found my fix, which is to output a fake disc image so I can steal the iDVD menus from it. I linked it a few posts earlier.

I spent part of the weekend creating the menus. My first plan was dashed. I formulated another.

Almost done.

 

Stop making Dvd's by the time you will have it done xbox will be a thing of the past!

 

Troll harder Darth!
