converting .ogm etc. to dvd-playable .avi

<< < (2/2)

You can also check isohunt and some other trackers... there are .avi versions floating around. Only problem is, KAA's is the most common and it's wmv9.

Neco:
Easiest thing to do is just  download the OGM version, since its DivX (which I'm assuming is what your DVD player will play if it plays AVI's),  demux the tracks,  take your preferred audio track and convert it to MP3 or whatever format your DVD will play, then  mux that audio track into the AVI (or DivX or whatever extension it is).

No re-encoding, no loss of video quality.  At the bitrate its at now, the audio probably isn't that spectacular anyway.  Works best if you prefer english, as you don't have to deal with subs..  But most players should play a subtitle file that shares the exact same name as the video file, I would think.

Not many DVD players can do anything with softsubs, and the ones that do usually need .srt files.  It's a lot easier just to reconvert with the subtitles hardcoded.

Most of mine have been philips  DivX certified..

But either way,  if he just wants english audio,  the outlined method is about as easy as it will get.

I'm so glad I got my WDTV HD Live..  Solved the whole problem entirely.
