use tovid to resize videos...
pkg_add -r tovid; install package if you need to
rehash; refresh you path so you can type the next command
tovid -ffmpeg -noask -in 'SomeVideo.avi' -out 'mpg/SomeVideo' -vbitrate 2000
(You may want to do 3000 for the bitrate -- remember you DVD has about a 4.5GB limit)
use tovidgui to create the layout
- pick wav file for audio
to convert an mpg to a wav file, use this command:
ffmpeg -i Desktop/GeorgeBushDoesntCareAboutBlackPeople.mp3 MenuMusic.wav
- any image for background (make it pretty!)
- select the video clip(s) you made with the tovid command above.
Edit the /tmp/FileJustMade.xml from tovidgui and change the output directory in the first <tag>.
<dvdauthor dest="/home/rudy/TheBikeRodeo">
makedvd /tmp/FileJustMade.xml
Note: I got an error, and had to add <button>jump title 1;</button> to the XML file for the 'back' button...
so, when I put the DVD in if I hit the back button, I just start the movie (as there is no back!)
Most likely, you have an inexpensive DVD burner that comes up as acd0.
You need to get it to look like a SCSI device to use the DVD burning command
(growisofs). To do that, there is a kernel model that talks to the IDE
CD/DVD ROM writer through a pseudo SCSI interface.
kldload atapicam
tail /var/log/messages (you should see /dev/cd0)
chmod g+w /dev/cd0
chmod g+rw /dev/pass0
(oh, and make sure you are in the 'operator' group... edit /etc/group)
growisofs -Z /dev/cd0 -dvd-compat -dvd-video -use-the-force-luke=dao /home/rudy/NewDVD
you can add 'speed=16' but growisofs will 'auto detect' the max speed
(DVD technology is better than cdrom!) -- I get about 12x on box.
Note: Don't worry about the 'LUN appears to be stuck' problem.
It get's unstuck by itself...
