I have jumped through all the hoops required in order to download
footage from my DV camcorder onto a Linux box (Suse 9.0) via firewire
(using dvgrab). I have transcoded the files using the script provided
at:
http://zebra.fh-weingarten.de/~transcode/docs/DV-to-DVD-HOWTO.txt
and burned the image to to DVD+RW. I used the option in the script
that follows:
# slower encoding, classic MPEG2
flags="-c -q 6 -4 2 -2 1 -K file=matrix.txt -R 2"
The VOBs that are created play correctly on my PC using Xine and the
created DVD+RW disk plays properly on a PC running Windows and also
via Xine on a Linux box. However, when I put the disk into my DVD
player I have problems. The disk plays too quickly! The quality of
the individual frames is excellent but the video is very jerky and
the rate is too high. It is like watching an old silent film where
everybody seems to be running all the time! Also, the sound plays too
quickly, making voices sound high pitched.
The DVD player is a Sony DVP-NS430 (multi-region) and I have had no
problems with it at all, playing DVDs SVCDs VCDs and CDs (including
mp3) without any problems.
If anybody can offer me any advice as to where I have gone wrong I
would be most grateful. I would also be grateful if anyone could
recommend any other forums where this question may be asked.
Many thanks
ROB
