Obviously mytharchive is trying to write too much information to my DVD.
Shouldn't this have been caught during the "Create DVD" setup screens
when I selected my videos?
BTW, I recorded the first four Star Trek: Enterprise episodes from
SCI-FI, and I'm trying to burn them (albeit with commercials) without
re-encoding. The setup screens lead me to believe that it will fit!
(The first 2 episodes *did* fit on a regular DVD, and my DVD players can
play *that* DVD just fine, but I'd like to write 4 episodes per DL DVD
if I can.) [I'll bet that if I cut out the commercials, it'll fit, right?]
Recordings were made on my PVR-350 in 480x480 NTSC mode and are in the
2.1-2.2GB size range each.
I have a separate issue with trying to re-encode each video down to SP
mode as ffmpeg errors out (I'll file this in a seperate email).
Suggestions welcome (as well as someone pointing me to how I can change
my recording mode to 720x480)....
Oh, yeah, I'm running on FC5 with the atrpms packages (up-to-date)
without any other problems that I am aware of....
