Installing Flexible Flyer Swingset

from AVI DVD

(note first: This article is to say that I now have evidence that Synkron not a created according to this description in DVD image and sound. Thus, this method is not recommended for now. 22. Dec. 2006)

I admit this is more a memo for internal use, but maybe it will help more people as well. My problem was, as inexpensively as I can get a DV-shot with a JVC camcorder to a DVD using Linux tools.

Here is my solution: Connect the camcorder to

Firewire and in a terminal window type "dvgrab timestamp film name-- - auto split". The data now to be (very space-consuming) AVI-Files scenes split and the date and time provided in the file name saved on the hard disk.
are now first all accident scenes deleted. Then the useful scenes to DVD format to be converted. We use the command "ffmpeg-i Filename.avi-target pal-dvd ergebnis.mpg. In order to save manual labor I've written a script that reformats an entire scene Directory:

# / bin / bash if [! -D $ 1mpg] then

mkdir $ 1mpg
fi z = $ 2
for VIDEO in $ 1 *, Thu

if [-f $] VIDEO; then

ffmpeg-i $ VIDEO-target pal -dvd $ 1mpg / $ z.mpg
z = $ [$ z +1]
fi
done

Man the script passed as the first parameter the directory with the scenes and as the second parameter is the initial number with the MPG files are named sequentially.

are now assembled the files, "ergebnis.mpg mpeg3cat 1.mpg 2.mpg 3.mpg ...>" with the command.

To make sure that

kmediafactory
does not stop with an error, this file should once again with "ffmpeg-i gesamtvideo.mpg-target pal-dvd-aspect 4:3 ergebnis.mpg" are nachformatiert.

 
 Then start 
 kmediafactory 
 and as the result file Insert Video. Then choose a menu layout and build the whole thing as K3B project. 
 
 
 In 
 K3B 
 I would first have to create only an image file and burn it first. It has been my experience that directly burned DVDs do not work sometimes. The preview of 
 KMedaifactory 
 means you can 
 
 Xine or caffeine 
 
 ever watch the preview.
