can i prevent resampling of video files?

Post by dinofava »

I have several DivX video files that i want to burn on DVD and MF4 always resample them and make them 5 times bigger so i no longer can burn them on single DVD. Can i prevent resampling, because I'm ok with their original format and quality. I use MF4 and "create video DVD"option, since i want to add a menu that will be playable on stand-alone dvd players.

Thanks for help

They must be re-sampled.
No choice.

DVD movie or data DVD?

You actually have two options:

divx files have a different file structure and codec than those produced for DVD movies (the classic .vob files which are usually mpeg2 files). so if such files were imported into a DVD movie no DVD reader would be able to decode them. :cry:

so

option number one is to let DMV recode them and make them playable before you burn the DVD

option number two is to create a normal Data DVD including all the divx files you can fit, and let a PC DVD player or a divx capable set-top DVD player handle them.. In this case, obviously, you loose the option of creating menus and stuff. You basically only have a data disc with multiple files.

hope this is useful to you

cheers
