Mar 4, 2010I am sitting on over a hundred Disney and other kid's VHS tapes we still have around from when our kids were little. My granddaughter has found them and finds them fantastically entertaining but VHS isn't exactly hardy for a 4 year old to handle. I'm looking to convert them to DVD for both backup and space savings. Cinderella has already bit the dust and I'm paying dearly for it. I have done some research and every bit of information assumes that I would have an idea of what I'm doing.
I do own a DVR but most of them won't copy for copy protect reasons. As far as I can tell the only way I can convert them is by going from analog VHS to digital DVD. Now, I have no clue how to do this nor what hardware I would need if any to do this.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Convert Blu-Ray To DVD?
Mar 26, 2010I'm trying to make a copy of my Blu-Ray movies on DVD-R so I can play them on my DVD player. The movies have been ripped to my HDD and the HD audio extracted. So I'm left with one video stream and one audio stream (either DTS or AC3) in a single m2ts file. I've tried to use mencoder with the same command that I use to convert DVB HD broadcasts to DVD compliant mpeg files as so:
Code:
mencoder -oac copy -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd:tsaf -vf scale=720:576,harddup -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vrc_maxrate=9800:vbitrate=4500:keyint=15:vstrict=0:aspect=16/9 -ofps 25 -o newfile.mpg 00520.m2ts
[Code]...
Is there something wrong with my mencoder command, or is there perhaps a better way of attacking this. I've spent a fair bit of time looking for a solution to this and there seems to very little information around. I would have thought this would be quite a common thing to try and do?

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Cannot Convert To 3gp
May 27, 2010Ubuntu 10.4
I have several files (DVDs, flv, mpeg, mp4...) that I'd like to watch on my Android phone (HTC Tattoo) that supports H264 and my other phone that supports 3GP.
INstalled Handbrake - does not have a 3GP option; mp4 will play audio but not video on Tattoo.
Installed Transmageddon - complains that cannot find the plugin although I click OK on download
Installed WinFF - complains no encoder.
I'm missing something from my packages but what? And where to get it?
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Convert VOB To AVI?

How can I do it?

And when I use Arista Transcoder, and convert the video to mp4 for example. The video resultant is normal, but when it's uploaded to , in the sound is ruined.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Convert 3gp To Avi?
Jul 16, 2011I'm tyring to convert the 3gp format that my droid likes to avi format which is more recognizable (like on my xbmc black xbox) I'm doing this conversion using memcoder and this script I wrote.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
_Working()
{
_INPUTFILE=$file
[Code].....
And that makes for low quality and skipping up movies. basically I want to take the 3gp and convert to avi with leaving as much of the playback alone as possible. What is a better way to convert these files? How can I prevent these skipped frames? What would be the memcoder switches line to retain as much quality as possible while converting the files to avi?
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Should Convert To RCA Or Scart?
Jan 12, 2010We have an analog tv (no plans to buy digital) which I'm planning to connect to an old laptop so we can watch online tv. The tv has rca input ports for audio l/r and video, and also has scart of course. The laptop has both vga (not really relevant) and mini-dvi outputs plus, of course, audio line-out.I have seen that I can get a mini-dvi to rca converter. The strange thing in this connection is that the converter has three rca plugs, which colour match audio l/r and video but I thought that dvi was purely video and not audio/video.
However, I have heard that rca inputs tend to give a poor quality picture - not that we're so choosy when it comes to tv, vcr quality is quite good enough - and I have seen that there is an rca to scart converter also. Would this be a better alternative or is it a case of the weakest link determining picture quality?So basically I have three questions:
1. Does mini-dvi include audio?
2. Should I just buy the mini-dvi to rca converter or the rca to scart converter also?
3. Is there a direct mini-dvi to scart converter available that I haven't found yet?
One of the laptops that I could use runs Ubuntu 9-10. It's and old Dell that sits in a docking station. The other one is a MacBook Pro. I assume, however, that the mini-dvi output will be the same pinwise from either machine. Come to think of it, I also have an old tower model, also running Ubuntu 9-10 that has a mini-dvi output.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Ffmpeg To Convert HD .mkv To .avi?
Jan 13, 2010I've got a bunch of HD files in .mkv format that I want to convert to a format that the 360 will read (currently just trying .avi files) so I can stream the media to my xbox360. I'd rather avoid transcoding the entire file, so I tried unpacking the .mkv file into audio and video (and subtitle if necessary) and repacking said file into avi using ffmpeg. The repacking is where I am having the problem. Here's the commands I tried at first (it might look familiar):
Code:
mkvextract tracks file.mkv 1:temp_video.avi 2:temp_audio.ogg 3:temp_sub.srt
ffmpeg -i temp_video.avi -i temp_audio.ogg -vcodec copy file.avi
However, I keep getting this annoying error:
Code:
Error while opening codec for output stream #0.1 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height Where stream #0.1 is the output audio stream to the .avi file. I think I have narrowed it down to the fact that the input streams are all 6 channel (5.1 surround sound) which mp2 doesn't support (the ffmpeg audio default) so I did this instead:
Code:
ffmpeg -i temp_video.avi -i temp_audio.ogg -vcodec copy -acodec libmp3lame file.avi
I'm still getting the same error, but when I use
Code:
ffmpeg -i temp_video.avi -i temp_audio.ogg -vcodec copy -acodec libmp3lame -ac 2 file.avi
to change the sound to stereo it works. Problem is I'd like to keep my media in surround sound. Any thoughts on how to get all 6 channels in the new mp3 file? I'm fairly certain that mp3s support 5.1. And after some messing around, I haven't found that my ffmpeg can transcode audio format from 5.1 back to 5.1. So since (I think) the 360 can play .ac3 files I decided to just copy both the video and audio file to the .avi file sans transcoding using
Code:
ffmpeg -i temp_video.avi -i temp_audio.ogg -vcodec copy -acodec copy file.avi
however now about halfway through, I run into this error:
Code:
NULL @ 0x22f3a00]error, non monotone timestamps 62562 >= 62562
av_interleaved_write_frame(): Error while opening file I can't seem to find any solution to this problem anywhere online, does anyone know how to get around this? I'd prefer to use ffmpeg for this if possible. (so I can write a script and just attack an entire directory at once) For what it's worth, I'm using the latest ffmpeg in the ubuntu (karmic) default repositories.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Convert CD To ISO Then Run Off A USB Stick?
Jan 19, 2010I am taking a Geology class this semester and we were assigned a CD that has an interactive program on it. I didn't like the access speed- especially when the narrator was supposed to talk. The DVD/CDRW drive had to spin up and... then the narrator spoke.I'm wondering if I can create an ISO image of that CD and then transfer it to a SD card so it's less noisy and less pokey than a CD.I only have Brasero at this point so I don't know if that program will be enough

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Multimedia :: Using Ffmpeg To Convert DTS To AC3?
Jul 28, 2010I have a .mkv container with proper video (h264/~6000kbps) and audio (DTS/1500kbps). For some reason I want to have similar quality but with another video and audio codecs. For video it goes well and ffmpeg is very helpful here, no problems. Also, I want DTS to become AC3/320-448kbps/5-6 channels. Commands like this:
Quote:
ffmpeg -i in.dts/mkv -acodec ac3 -ac 5 -ab 448k out.ac3
gives me not proper reordered sound in channels, so I hear center on the right, music on the left, etc.
Is there a way to make that properly with ffmpeg?
Also, I have a question about multi core encoding cause I have a quad processor. Ffmpeg seems not using them in all the way, I get something like 25% of CPU usage while encoding. Command -threads, even using the h264, does not make any extra load of cpu.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Convert .avi To .mov With Ffmpeg?
Jul 29, 2010I'm making little animated bits in GIMP with the gap package. I can only get GIMP to encode the files as .avi. Problem here is that when I try to use any converter, it compresses 80MB files down to 1MB-4MB files and, unsurprisingly, the video quality is terrible. WinFF and ffmpeg (via terminal) output at a drastically reduced size. Is there some way to keep the files big/big-ish? I don't want to lose any detail.
