    Hi everyone,

    I like to know anyone know how to burn multiple espisode into a single DVD? Current, I only can burn one espisode into a DVD. To me it is quite waste of DVD. I am just wonder know it is possible to burn more than one espisode in a DVD. If so, would you please guide me how to do so. Thanks much in advance!!

    mp4 is easy.. if your players can play mp4, you can burn 4.7gb mp4 episodes on a dvd:)

    Hm... just convert the chapters in winavi and burn it with nero? you should be able to burn 5chapters on a dvd. Oh yeh... are you on about burning tvb chapters on a dvd? or something else?

    well if your burning tvb episode to tvb, you can burn up to 8 episode per disc i think. since i tried it before.. use convertxtodvd. its a demo version but there should be a full version on this site somewhere.. forgot where.. http://www.vso-software.fr/products/convert_x_to_dvd/

    i use winAVI, i can get five 40min tvb eps onto a 4.7gb dvd disk

    its really simple to use, theres virtually no setting that need changing, its a matter of selecting convert to dvd, selecting the files, choosing how you want the dvd to be structured (in chapters, different titles, or as a single title, so it merges the 5 eps into one title) and choosing the size of the disk you intend to burn with,

    then let it convert and burn it to disk with nero

    winavi for me too. i think it works out that you can fit about 1G rmvb into 1 DVD5

    Open up WinAVI then convert the rmvb files into dvd... i'd probably convert 5 at a time. After converting, open up nero and burn a dvd disc.
    That's about it briefly.

    if u put 1gb of rmvb files onto 1 dvd5, is the quality any good?

    doesn't that slow down the converting process if u convert 5 at one time?

    I guess I did something wrong, I tried both ways. I convert rmvb file into dvd format for 5 time in 5 difference DVD folder, however, I only able to write one at a time. I also tried to convert 5 rmvb by batch, but after one rmvb file is done, it asked me "small pop up indcated that do i want to replaced the exist file", if I click Yes, it will replace the first file i convert, if I click No, it will stop converting. I am not sure what I did wrong. However, I have tried serveral ways but not of them works. Maybe in btw, I did something wrong with it. Do you know what I have done wrong ma?

    Thanks

    Try to use the " TMGPEnc DVD Author " to make multi-session DVD .
    This is the web site to guide you how to make multi-session DVD for your reference.

    Hm... i probably didn't make it clear enough ;)

    well first open up winavi
    [​IMG]
    then click on the 'DVD' icon and select the 5 files you want to convert.

    Then it should look like this (well it shouldn't have the option part)
    [​IMG]
    Make sure the files that are going to be converted are in the right order.
    For 'source files' select 'Merge into one DVD'
    Now click 'Advanced' and copy my option settings if you want.

    Well... i don't burn rmvb chapters to dvd this way anymore... but this is how i used to do it, so it should work. By using this way you could only probably fit 5 chapters per DVD..

    how long should 1 dvd be for it to be at good quality and is winavi good at converting the rmvb files. when i say this i mean does the quality of the conversions deteriote much from the original and are they blurred?

    8.0 :D

    you can get about five 40min eps onto a 4.7gb disk

    quality i think doesnt go down (well to my eyes), since a 200mb rmvb is not the best to begin with, so any losses should not be noticeable

    I'm using winavi 6.1 or 7.1 not sure cos im on a different computer, pretty old but still its working excellent.
    That most i've burned onto 1 dvd is 10 episode, converted all to the lower quality, works great, quality is excellent like it is watchin from normal tv, however i've have dvd-rmvb files... i'm not too sure if your converting tv-rmvb cos the quality is rubbish after convertion.
