Xvid/Divx to DVD Software - Whats the BEST & Fastest?

I used some before but they take like 6 hours to convert MPEG to DVD format
It would be nice if I could find a program like takes 3-4 hours max and thern I could burn it right away..
Shareware or Freeware will do.. FREE definitely is better

I liked DvdSanta software. I found the audio sync with the video was really good. Really quick too.

SUPER should do. And great, it's free!!

Just select the output as Vob DVD compliant, and voila!!

You might want to use NTSC or PAL options so change those accordingaly. You could reduce video bitrate too in case it looks overkill. Quality above all!!

You could also use the AUTO-MODE profile. The easiest it can be. 2 clicks are enough.

Everything gets processed in the YUV colorspace (avisynth supported) so dont expect anything (significantly) faster anywhere.

DUDE! A watermark is hardcoded into video. Wouldnt be too great to notice it only after encoding. All its major features are present in SUPER for free.

a small payment and you no longer have the vso watermark on the video output.

dpence · August 11th, 2006

watermark??? not on mine....plus it is easier to use, no selecting Aspect ratio etc...drop the files in and click convert. Even auto adds chapters , does menus, and burns to dvd when it is finished. Small payment is well worth it....

I follow this old school guide for the best quality.

Dunno about the fastest, but it takes me around 2hrs on a Athlon64 3500+ to convert a 2 CD xvid with 5.1 AC3 encoding.

How long does SUPER convert a 2 hour movie?

Hard core Rikki · August 12th, 2006

Will try 2 hours movie and report back, with and without the following options activated.

Inside SUPER,right click and deactivate "Enable File Analyzing Engine". Slows starting of encoding significantly, even if its to try to better allocate bits.

Disabling the "High Quality" option also speeds up encoding significantly.

Disabling those two shouldnt lower quality unacceptably.

Hard core Rikki · August 13th, 2006

For SUPER. Using the VOB DVD Compliant setting. Finished encoding after 2 hours 40 minutes.

Remember, compliant DVD movies are supposed to have 0,99 gb files at max. You'd want to split it in smaller files after this step, in case you're using high bitrates.
