How to Convert AVI to DVD

Ok, so you've got this downloaded AVI (DiVX, XViD) movie and you want to watch it on your TV, but you dont have a DiVX DVD Player. I am going to show you how to convert this AVI movie to a DVDISO image with minimal to no quality loss of the movie file.
Tools Needed:




Tools Needed:
-AVI2DVD (here)
-CCE SP v2.67.00.27 (Search Torrents, found mine on ISOHUNT)
-DVD Decrypter (here) -DVD Burner

Step One: Install all software listed above.

Step Two: Start up AVI2DVD and load .AVI file.


Step Three: Choose Output

Here is where you choose the format you want the video to be encoded into.(VCD,SVCD,DVD5,DVD9) Here we are going to choose DVD-5.



Step Four: Choose Encoder

This is the step where we choos the encoder we wish to use to convert our files. (1)When you get to this step Click Locate CCE and browse for the CCE SP exe file and click Open. Verify that the bar above the passes box is Green and says CCE Found! If it says this your all set.

The amount of passes you use is completely up to you, I recommend using 5 or more passes if video is under 100 mins. 6 or more for anything over 100 mins. The more passes the better quality DVD you will get. Maximum passes allowed is 9.



Step Five: Enocding Time!

This is the longest step in the whole process. Time for full encode depends on how many passes you chose. Each pass takes about an hour.

Clcik Add Job, in the box right under that button, Job Queue, Job 1: (filname) should have appeared. Now clcik the GO !!! button. After clicking GO !!! a box like this will appear:



Click Proceed. After clicking Proceed 2 Command Prompt Boxes will appear after a while (usually 30 to 60 seconds after) that look similar to this:


DO NOT close them, they are encoding the audio to AC3 format for use on the DVD. (The box pictured is the first one to appear. after that one goes away the second one comes up). After the second dialog box disappears this should come up:



Click Apply Then Click OK. After clicking OK you should get:


This box will be up for a while...so sit back, relax and let it do its job. First it will do an INFO pass, then it will do the number of video passes you chose.

After the last encoding pass finishes, these next four command prompt boxes show up one at a time:






After those are all gone and your back to the AVI2DVD screen you're done for this step!!

Step Six: Burning the ISO

The last step....your almost there.

Open DVD Decrypter.

Clcik Mode > ISO > Write and you should get:


Now just follow the instructions in the pic above, and when its done burning, congratulations! your done!

Now just pop the DVD in your player sit back and enjoy.

How to get unlimited bandwidth from your host for free

NOTE: This applies only to specific hosting companies, due to the
specific setup needed and does have its drawbacks.

While setting up hosting space with a specific company I often deal
with, I noticed that they used a shared IP. (IP shared by two or more
websites/domains.) Well, the rates for unlimited bandwidth were
around $50+ per month.

Back on track... When setting up the acct, the hosting company needs
to know the domain name so that they can direct it accordingly.
(example: 'http://www.123.4.567.890/~user1/ ,
'http://www.123.4.567.890/~user2/ etc)

At this point you can give a url that doesnt belong to you at all. As
long as the nameservers dont change, that should have absolutly no
negative effects on you or your site whatsoever.

How it works is this:
The host propogates you a certain amount space on its servers, and
monitors the traffic that enters their space through the domain its
registered under. Being that the domain isn't connected to the site
at all, it registers ZERO traffic.

Zero traffic registered = can't possibly go over bandwidth
restrictions
can't possibly go over bandwidth restrictions = free unlimited
bandwidth

Now the problems with this (besides the ethical ones) is that your
host may offer X amount of mail addys with the acct
(you@y...) and these will not work, as the name isnt on their
DNS. However, some domain companies allow you to set it up
regardless. Another problem seems to be strictly cosmetic, but can be
highly problematic... Once you attach the domain you want onto the
site, each page comes up/w the ip/UN the host propagated to your
acct. Its at this point where you have to have a phenominal 10-15
character alphanumerical or better (#, &, etc) pw, or your site will
be vulnerable to attack since the attacker already has your UN. This
only gives attackers a slight advantage as the amount of time it
would take to brute force a 10 character pw @ a rate of 1,000,000 per
second is 10 years. Add numbers and case sensitivity to that and it
becomes approx 26,980 years.

While I'm on it, I may as well add that if you use this method,
obviously you are going to be using the lowest cost hosting plan
available, which in turn will offer the least amount of space. Thats
why free hosts were invented.

Free hosts suck as a general rule. Who wants a site smothered in ads?
However, if you upload all your programs, graphics and other large
files (have a backup of course) to a reliable free host and target
them accordingly from your site you have just freed up a signifigant
amount of space. The only setback/w this is having to keep an index
card or file around/w your pws, as you should never use the same one
twice, and want to use complicated ones.
