[cedriclocqueneux]

Yes, i can play the original file in mp.

I have recorded a film with MP
With MP, i have converted it to mpg

And after, i use your tips with MPGII2DVD and MyProgram.

Would you try another file, please.
And post the result.

I also use CVS from 15-01-2006 right now. All later versions still cause problems on my machine. :?
Nice to hear it's working for you, now.

Hi,

Can anyone help here. I have several tv programs all compressed to mpeg2 with Media Portal compression. I have installed and setup the DVD burner as suggested. I start the burn process and get to the screen that says 'Working...' It gets about 75% through on the progress bar then just says errors detected. I have no idea what this is. I have checked other feedback on the forum and checked my settings in the mpgII2DVD.ini file

My mpgII2dvd.ini looks like....

[Background]
C:\Program files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\MpgII2DVD\Blue Two background.jpg

[Font]
Arial

[FontSize]
22

[TextColor]
white

[ShadowColor]


[VideoTempFolder]
c:\temp

;<DVDiso> is the path to the iso and <DVDpath> is the path do the folder that contains the DVD data

[DVDBurner]
C:\Program files\imgburn\imgburn.exe /mode isowrite /start /src "<DVDiso>" /dest c: /close

[MultipleFiles]
off
[debug]
off

[AutoDelete]
on

Cheers,

Hi boing100,

please check this first:

- check if your temp folder exists and much hdd space you have on this partition left for the temp file.
- check if the path of imgburn is right

You can also enable debug mode.
There you can see in the dos prompt what's happening.

HI there,


first of all thank you very much for this plugin.

I followed your howto and burning a single file worked pretty good.
Since I want to burn some episodes of a tv series i was wondering whether its possible to burn more than one file to DVD. In your Howto you stated that it is possible to burn a single file or a whole folder. I copied the episodes I want to burn into a single folder but when I try to select this folder, I end up in browsing through the single files. So I can only burn a single file. I cannot add any more files to burn.
Is there a workaround to fix this problem? How can I burn a whole folder?

Thanks in advance,

Edhunter

Hi Edhunter,

take a look at step 3:
You will need to change your ini file for this.

There is an entry called
[MultipleFiles]
on = MpegII2DVD tries to burn all files in the selected folder to DVD
off = MpegII2DVD burns only the selected file to DVD (recommend)

Change this from off to on and all files in that folder will be burned.

Regards
Ralph

First of all I have to say thanks for your great turtorial...

MpegII2Dvd works fine for me - but just as long as the file's smaller than 4.7 gig - if rejig has to compress the file it always crashes...

"Rejig caused an error and has to be closed"

Any ideas?

Thanks...
