Hi: Yesterday I reported (to the user list) a failure when trying to
create a native-mode .iso image from a single ~4Gb .nuv format recording.
Today I have made two attempts to create standard DVD images from
similar large (but >4Gb) single .nuv format files. Both failed in
dvdauthor after having created a playable and DVD-sized file of the
video stream and a separate audio stream. In both cases mplex exited
with 'too many frame drops' and dvdauthor then failed (Result: 1) with
'Cannot jump to chapter 2 of title 1, only 1 exist'. I'm not clear
whether it doesn't exist because of the frame-drop failure or because
I'm only processing one recording. The first attempt yielded one 800Mb
VOB file. The second attempt failed before that stage.
I declare again that I'm using the atrpms builds for fc5, but this seems
to me the best place to inquire about these problems. Am I trying to do
something that is not supposed to work, or can I tweak something? I've
saved the compressed files generated in the last two attempts, because a
lot of processing has been done on them. Am I likely to be able to
replex them when dvdauthor has failed to do so?
Thanks for any help.
