I have a few master DVD's and i wanna grab the video and audio offa it and convert it to AVI so that i can add a different audio track to the one that's on there, make menu's for the DVD (The one i got doesnt have it) and re-burn the dvd.
How in the fuck can i do this, and how much space will it take to do this?
Any comments or lil ideas will be appreciated. Thanx =)
it sounds like all you want to do is take an existing DVD, rip the audio and video tracks, use a *new* audio source and then re-burn to DVD with a menu.
if this is what you're wanting to do, there's NO reason to convert the video to AVI. you just add in re-encoding to the process, and it will lessen the quality of the "final" DVD you're going to burn.
all you need to do is take a program like SmartRipper or DVDDecrypter, rip the audio and video tracks (as separate files). then, if needed, convert the ripped audio file (if it's AC3, you probably need to convert it) with something like px3. then, open up the original audio source in Cool Edit/Audition, and line up the new audio source with the original one. when you've got them perfectly lined up, save the new source. encode it to AC3 (if needed), then fire up a DVD Authoring program, import the video and audio sources, and compile it.
