STEP1:
CladDVD
After installing CladDVD, open program and select source drive
(Drive letter of DVD). Once this is done, choose the destination
of where you would like the files to go to. Then push the "Select
DVD Movie" button. Your movie VOB's will appear in the white
box. Make sure in the "Options" it says "Don't
Make Multi Region", "Skip Multi Angles" (if not
a multi angle movie Ex. Matrix is multi angle) and "Don't
Remove Macrovision". Save New Options and "Start Selected
Operation"..then wait...
STEP2: DVD2AVI
After installing DVD2AVI 1.74, open program and go to the "Help"
tab. Make sure the "VFAPI Plugin" is checked. Now go
to to "File", and find your VOB's..click on the first
VOB, and it will select the rest. Make sure it selected them in
number order, then press OK. The only setting you have to change
here is one. Go to the "Video" tab. Then go down to
Field Operation and check "Forced Film". When all this
is done, go to "File" again, and "Save Project"
(NOTE: Do not "Save AVI")..sit back and wait. You will
end up with a .d2v file and a .Wav file (Video and Audio files).
NOTE: When
DVD2AVI is processing your files, notice what the Aspect Ratio
is of the DVD. It will be needed Later!!! (Ex. - 16:9, 4:3, Etc.)
STEP3:
TMPEGEnc
After installing TMPEGEnc 1.2a, open program. There will be 3
slots at the bottom..in the "Video Source", put your
.d2v file. In the "Audio Source", put your .Wav file.
Make sure that your output is going to a drive that has free space.
Now for my personal touch. Push the "Load" button. This
will bring you files called "Templates" (Basic Setups).
Browse for where you downloaded my template "Jons 60 Min
SVCD (NTSCFilm).mcf" and open it. Push the "Configure"
button. Leave all the settings in the "Video" tab alone.
Go to the "Advanced" tab. Remember the Aspect Ratio
of the DVD? Enter it in the "Source Aspect Ratio". Now
double click on the "Source Frame Range" filter. This
allows you to set where your movie will start and end. In our
case we want to do 1/2 and 1/2, so slide the bar to the end of
the movie (before credits begin) and Notice the total time up
top. Devide it in 2 and find out where to start and end. HINT:
on the second half, you start where you ended on the 1st! Now
click "OK" and "OK" again. You are ready!
Press "Encode" and wait..
STEP4: BURNING W/ NERO
Select "Super Video CD". In the "Video" tab,
uncheck the "Create Standard Compliant CD". Go to the
"File Options" tab. Select "ISO Level 2",
and make sure the Character set is "ISO 9660". Go to
the "Volume Descriptor" tab. Give your Volume Label
a new name (Ex. MIB1 *means the 1st half of Men In Black*). Go
to the "Burn" tab, and make sure the speed is no higher
than 4X. Uncheck "Determine Maximum Speed" and uncheck
"Simulation". Now click on "NEW". In the File
Browser, on the right, find your .MPG movie file you created and
drag it to the empty box on the bottom left. After the file is
checked, click the "Write Process" button on top and
then "Write" your CD! Good Luck!!
