Source Path: here you
must define the path to the folder where you keep the ripped files.
Video Title Sets: on this
section you'll see the list of the VTSs that your movie have.
Working Path: here you
must insert the path to the folder were DVD-RB will keep the processed
files.
Output Path: insert
the path to the folder where you want to get the processed files
(they will be on a VIDEO_TS folder created inside the path you especify)
- This path will only be needed if you select the option «Enable
"Output" Directory» (see menu
"Mode").
Progress: this bar will
indicate the progress of each step of the process.
Overall: this bar will
indicate the progress of the whole process.
Status: on this box will
be displayed all the information about the process.
Audio streams to keep: as
the name indicates, here you can check the audio streams that you
want to keep... just uncheck want you don't want.
Subtitles to keep: as
the name indicates, here you can check the subtitles streams that
you want to keep... just uncheck want you don't want.
The next three passes will be disabled if you
choose "One Click Mode".
Prepare: click this button
to start the process (on three click mode):
Heres what happens:
-- All the VTSs in the source directory are scanned and .D2V files
are created (all automatically);
-- AVS files are also created automatically all in \D2VAVS under
the "Working Path";
-- All .AVS files represent the VTSs divided into "segments"
-- each segment typically represents an individual cell (VOBID/CELLID).
It can also represent portions of a cell (e.g. in interleaving);
-- All parameters are optimally calculated (including bitrate) and
are stored in an .ECL (CCE Project File)
Encode: When preparation
is complete you can either open the ECL file with CCE and modify
as you see fit, or press the "Encode" button. Remember,
though, that command-line options must be supported for this to
work. I've tested
the program extensively with Cinema Craft Encoder Basic. This can
take anywhere from two-four hours depending upon your processor,
hard drive, and the size of the DVD.
Rebuild: After encoding
is completed, you get to see where DVD-RB's real magic comes in.
Push the "Rebuild" button and the video you've just created
is merged and multiplexed with the original audio and subtitle streams.
A new VIDEO_TS directory is created in the "Working Path"
or in the "Output Path" - depending of your choice on
menu "Mode", as seen above.
If you choose the "One Click
Mode", you'll just get a single button called "Transcode"...
this means that after you fill and the needed field ("Source
path, etc) you just have to click it.
