Ubuntu Multimedia :: Converting And Burning A DVD?
Nov 24, 2010
I need something that will convert and then burn a DVD. I have tried almost all of the options on Ubuntu including Devede, K3B, Avidemux, Qauthor, Tovid, Transmageddon, DVDstyler and probably more. None will convert to a NTSC format without trying to create a DVD menu which seems to be the problem involved in playback except for Transmageddon, but it fails to provide the bup and ifo files to go with the video files to get K3B to burn it. I'm able to make DVD's that work on computers, but I want DVD's that will play in my DVD player. Any programs other than the ones I named that can do the conversion without creating a DVD menu and create all the files needed to get K3B to burn it? If needed, I'm converting from AVI. Also,

Trying to burn with CD/DVD Creator. I can't find anything in the program (settings wise) that will automatically convert mp3 files to wav files. I used to use k3b, and it used to do that. I did try installing k3b, however I am getting glitches in the program. I don't want to covert mp3 files over to wav every time I want to burn a new cd. Does anyone have a suggestion as to another program or place to find the burn setting for encoding?

Today I want to install Ubuntu on a friends laptop. I finally convinced him to leave Windows and move on to Ubuntu. Ironically this has brought me into problems. I have downloaded the ubuntu-10.10-dvd-i386.iso and ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso to make a bootable cd/dvd to install Ubuntu. Now both K3b and Brasero give me problems burning one of the .iso files. I already waste some CDr and DVDr. I will share some logfiles for your info;

I keep getting the following error when trying to burn a DVD, and unfortunately am none the wiser as to what it means:
Code:
DBus error
This is using both Brasero and K3b, the disk stops writing about halfway through on Brasero and a tenth of the way through on K3b. I'm just trying to burn a data DVD and have tried low & high speeds.
Latest version of 64bit Ubuntu

I have finally ripped my dvd collection to my external hard drive, and now I want to make fair use back ups of my discs (incase the worst happens and I lose my HD and my original disc) I remember there was a tutorial on these forums a while back but I can't seem to find it.

I am using Ubuntu 10.10 and when I place a blank cd into my drive it detects it but tells me there is no cd burning application, but I have k3b and gnome baker. What is going on?

I have a Video DVD on HDD. Complete structure in VIDEO_TS folder. Problem is I can't find a program to successfully burn it. Brasero doesn't even have an option for Video DVD. The Video DVD option it has wants to try and do encoding or something. It doesn't even take the VIDEO_TS folder. If you choose data disc and burn the VIDEO_TS folder then the disc don't work in stand-alone DVD players and only works on the Linux pc itself.
Gnomebaker has the same problem as above.
K3B doesn't want to work. Just keeps giving the error "Unable to determine size of image".
So where to turn ? Is there an app for Ubuntu that can actually burn a video dvd to be playable in a stand-alone dvd player ?

I have spend the entire weekend trying to convert a mkv file with a DTS audio track to an AC3 audio track. I wrote a small article on it on my website with plenty of links and suggestions. I used applications like TVersity, PS3 Media Server, mkvdts2ac3 script, and avidemux. I just hope i can save someone's weekend with this. Anyway here is the link:

i am converting my DVDs into a media library. The ripping itself is no problem. (using Xilisoft dvd-rip under wine; works flawless).
when i convert to a mp4 file, with good quality, the output is always around 1.2 -1.8 gb. depending on the movie file. i tried Xvid and the size is pretty much the same. only by reduucing the pixel size etc... i get like a 600-800 mb file.
when i see other ripped movies, with about the same movie length, they getting 800mb mp4, in perfect quality, no smaller screen, pixels are great etc... is there any kind of advanced setting to it? bitrate, audio? to get down to this file size..?

I have mediatomb (0.12.0~svn2018-6ubuntu2) installed on Ubuntu Server 10.04.2 LTS which I use to serve video to my PS3 (slim version). MOst videos work fine but I have some mkv's giving me trouble.I'm trying to use mencoder to re-code the video to one that the PS3 can play. mkvinfo says the video track is Codec ID: V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC and the audio track is Codec ID: A_AC3.I used this command to convert to avi (found it in a thread on this forum):
mencoder -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr=128 -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=1200 video.mkv -o video.avi
but the PS3 says the avi is an unsupported format.

I want to do is this: choose the order (other than alphabetical) of the files that I burn to a disc.Brasero doesn't allow it K3b doesn't allow it GnomeBaker doesn't allow it Unless I am missing something, I can't figure out any way other than renaming all my files with a single number and/or letter at the beginning of a file name to choose the order of files. This blows my mind it seems like the most "no duh" feature that everyone would need in any Cd burning program. if I am stupid or if the software developers are stupid. (because I really can't see any other options) This is seriously so important (to me), that I will abandon Linux and go back to Windows if I can't do it.

I'm looking for a music player, similar to rhythmbox, but one that allows for drag 'n drop mp3 cd burning capabilities.
If I'm not clear, I want to be able to drag songs from my library into a playlist, or whatever, just like rhythmbox will do for audio cd's, but be able to burn it as an mp3 cd to allow for long playlists.
My music folder is close to 10000 files in MANY MANY different folders. So making a long mp3 mixtape would be much easier if I could do it in the same program that already has every song in front of me.

I have tried to burn dvd's using Brasero, after making the dvd etc I choose to burn as a video, but it gets to around 95% of converting the file to MPEG2 or 4 (Tried both) and just sits there doing nothing!I even left it over night to see if that helped but no joy.

it seems Ubuntu can't just BURN CD or DVD. I've used Brasero, GnomeBaker, K3B - They all miserably FAIL.
Plus, they Break My DVD Drives, after trying sooo Many Times, leaves it behind useless.
I bought 3 DVD Drives: Lite-On, Sony and LG. In a span of 3 Months, UBUNTU completely DESTROYED all of them.
I'm not sure why. BUT first, I find Ubuntu can't burn using above Applications. 2nd, DVD stops working.
Error message from K3B, using it, since it's the most stable I've found. cdrdao crashed, file permissions problems, perhaps TAO will fix this, and a lot more of these crap.

I am burning DVD iso's and they seem to work great I have video output and sound output however as the film goes on the audio gradually becomes more out of sync but if I hit the rewind button on my remote and then play the sound is in sync again for a few minuets. I am using DeVeDe and Gnome Baker to create and burn my iso images to disc and they work great on the computer but not so great on my dvd players I am burning onto Verbatim DVD-R using Ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx.

How would I go about converting an MPG to a DVD format so I could burn it to a DVD disc and play it on a standard player?

I am in Toronto Canada and we have NTSC television. I am going to England where they use PAL. My mom's DVD player cannot read NTSC.
I have a TV show on my PVR that I want to burn to a DVD so that she can see.
I have to output the program from the PVR to my DVD recorder; I do not have the hardware to send directly to my computer.
So I believe I must follow these steps:
Rip DVD to computer
Convert to PAL format
Burn to DVD

To Ubuntu after switching from Windows Vista. So far I really like it. I am trying to convert music in wma format that I purchased on Zune to mp3 format so that I can play it in Rhythm Box and use it on a SanDisk Fuze that I recently purchased. I installed Sound Convert. Sound Convert works fine when converting wma files that were created from ripping CD's. However, it freezes when trying to convert wma files that were purchased from Zune. Also if I try to double click on one of the wma files to play it with movie player, I get an error message saying that the file is encrypted and decryption is not supported.
I did find a converter on Windows that works. However, it was a trial version that only converts 90 secs. The full version costs $25. I do not feel that I should have to pay for music that I have already paid for. The music was purchased a la carte from Zune (not with the monthly pass). Does anyone know of a workaround to free my Zune music so I can access it on Ubuntu?

The problem is the only video codec that iPod touches can playback is MP4. My Psych episodes are AVIs. I've heard of and used mencoder to change video codecs before, but I'd have no idea how to write my own script for it. What I was thinking of doing is using Avidemux to convert it? Open the AVI in adivemux Switch the video to MP4 Mpeg-4 switch the audio to MP3 lame
Honestly i'm not too firmiliar with codecs and containers but its telling me that rather than Xvid(which i think it was previously) the video codec is MP4 and the audio is MP3, and the container is AVI. First of all is this correct? Did i get the codec/container right?
Secondly will this work on my iTouch? I guess dealing with AVIs as a container is ok as long as the video codec is MP4? rather than like OGG or something? Ugh i'm so confused, i've just been rambling..
Ok. First of all do i have codecs/containers down? Am i correct with my assumptions? Second, I am correct that the CODEC is the problem, it must be MP4 to play back on the iPod? the container being AVI has nothing to do with it? (i'm basing this off of the fact that i know the only "codec" iPods can playback is MP4)
Edit: are there any other possible ways to convert an AVI to an MP4?

I copied some songs off a CD and wanted to convert them to mp3. Is there a program that I should have used to rip them that would have done that or is there a program that will convert them for me?

Is there a way (strictly in Ubuntu -- well I am viewing the noteworthy files under wine) to convert these files to lilypond format? I have tried the nwc2ly converter, but so far without any success. Any thoughts, or suggestions? You see I have a friend that has done a lot of Orthodox Music in NWC, but I want to get it into Lilypond as it will look better, and then I can easily convert to pdf, and easily change things if needed, etc. But I would rather not have to print and retype it all.

I just purchased a new digital camcorder and after recording I realized that it records that the files were not in a format that I am use to. I need a program or code that I can use to convert these files into a format that I can watch and that I can manipulate to make a longer movie.
Ubuntu 10.4
