Wow, a valuable GUI! Works like a charm!
Would you see any chance to make directshow or VfW codecs work on input just to feed such files to FFMPEG or FFMBC?
Maybe this can be work by creating temporary dummy *.AVS files or otherwise?
Another thing, could you place the import button for presets on main screen?
Thanks a lot, Priit! Great work!Cheers

Yes,
in Windows 7 it’s turned off by default!Andreas Gumm

Do you have the ability to create different playlists from the same asset in AVID DVD?
If so, create an extra playlist for each button starts the same content & link that from & back to the button where it come from!Andreas Gumm

Mmmh,
maybe DVD Studio Pro is the best choice if your workflow is Mac based!
You are able to set conditions & playlists to match your needs.Scenarist takes a huge learning curve. It’s the most advanced & also the most complicated tool because there is no abstraction layer! 😉
Spruce DVD Maestro is a discontinued PC based product since Spruce was aquired by Apple. 😉
For PC based workflow maybe DVDlab Pro can be a choice?

I don’t know if AVID DVD supports it,
but this can be realised by scripting commands only as known from Scenarist, DVDStudioPro & Spruce DVD Maestro.Andreas Gumm

No! FFMPEG is a command line tool only!
Actually ProRes files can be read on Windows systems if Quicktime 7 is installed! Adobe Premiere, After Effects, Grass Valley EDIUS, Sony Vegas & other NLE systems are using the QT API to read ProRes files.Sadly, encoding ProRes with FFMPEG is a seperate extra step!
So you have to export the whole timeline & feed it to FFMPEG or use the awesome Debugmode Frameserver to do this directly.Maybe ffdshow will be able to decode it in future releases!

Maybe a SCSI <-> USB converter can help you?

PAL & NTSC DVD’s are working well on computers (PC or Mac based)!
NTSC DVD’s can be played fine with 98% of the set-top box players in PAL country!
With players in NTSC countries is another thing! The adoption rate is simply low & most devices are not compatible!Andreas Gumm

No, sadly it doesn’t!
Windows has no build-in engine for DVD playback!
Install a proper DVD player software such as WinDVD, PowerDVD, or Arcsoft Total Media Player & you will be ready also with Windows Media Player! VLC-Player can playback DVD’s, but there are issues with subpicture in menus!Andreas Gumm

Liam,
why is Womble DVD limiting AVI size?
Sometimes the file system causes restrictions for file size. So take care your HDD is NTFS formated!Btw, Womble DVD is no real good choice for complexe editing. It just gives you the chance to edit with MPEG2 smart rendering.
My recent suggestion contained a reliable way!
As I said, an actual NLE system can edit MPEG2 & AC3 files directly in timeline. Internal decoding is virtualy lossless so if you export your edited footage to a lossless codec you will get what you want.Before you can work you have to rip the files from the disc to your HDD & demux video & audio from stream (maybe with PGCdemux)! Demuxing is important to prevent you from out-synced audio.
Drag both asset to a timeline, link audio with video & just start editing! Export your result to a losless codec of your choice!Another way to convert your footage to AVI is using VirtualDub with installed MPEG2 & AC3 plugins! Virtualdub is able to load the complete VOB-chain! Export it to a lossless AVI codec of your choice with PCM audio!
