Can't convert to DVD from flv

I've done this. See my script:

app.markerB=1898;

app.video.setPostProc(3,3,0);

app.video.fps1000 = 25000;

//** Filters **
app.video.addFilter("mpresize","w=720","h=408","algo=0");

But after clicing to ToDVD аn Error occurs - illegal character. See attachment. There is mistake?

[Jan Gruuthuse]

Don't see what is going wrong? I've attached ToDVD.js. This one works here. If that does not work in your environment? Windows English versus your localized Windows or Windows <> Linux?

These you need to leave out! Or you can't use the job for other videos!

I've copied your ToDVD.js to mine folder, run Avidemux. Loaded video. Cliced to ToDVD in menu. Then a message pup up "Incompatible audio
For DVD sound should be in the form of 48 kHz MP2, AC3 or LPCM" (transcription from Russian). I have turned Audio to 48 kHz MP2 or AC3 and the result was the same - en error and avidemux was shut down (log file in attachment )

[Jan Gruuthuse]

For DVD, audio must be 48 kHz and one of:

• AC3 (FFmpeg AC3)
• MP2 (FFmpeg MP2 or TwoLAME)
• LPCM (WAV LPCM)

If the audio track from the source video is suitable, the best might be to use it and let the audio to Copy. Else select your favorite encoder (for me it would be TwoLAME).
Don't forget to setup the audio filter. Setup downmixing if needed and don't forget that the audio must be 48 kHz. Use a resampling filter if needed.
So for example, you will set downmixing to Dolby Prologic 2, resampling to 48 kHz, TwoLAME encoder at 160 kb/s.

If that fails: can you upload a 5 second sample/size 20 MB original video that you load in avidemux? To Rapidshare or similar service? and provide a link for it here?

[Mikhail]

I configured the audio as you said, but fails remind.
I noticed a feature ââ,¬â€œ text in js-files, which are in avidemux as a default, by opening it in notepad is shown as one long line, but not as a column. But your sample scripts, Iââ,¬â,,¢ve copied and pasted from this forum to notepad and saved as js, in js-files was like in your posts - in the column (each entry begins with a new line). Your last ToDVD.js in attachment is shown as a long line in a notepad. Maybe this is the reason? Link for example of muvie https://rapidshare.com/files/226503885/0.avi

With avidemux 2.6 I was able to process the provided video clip.
The end result is uploaded here: https://rapidshare.com/files/1118400/test.mpg
The Tinypy project for it is in attachment.
Hope this is what you wanted

[Mikhail]

Thanks a lot! If I correctly understood you ver 2.5.6. doesn't work. Can you send me a link for Avidemux 2.6. preferably with russian menu?

[Jan Gruuthuse]

Don't know if there is Russian translation available? Russian translation?
Download available:
http://avidemux.org/nightly/
http://avidemux.razorbyte.com.au/

[Mikhail]

There are 2 versions for Win 32 bit - avidemux_r8108_devel_win32.7z and avidemux_r8108_win32.7z,
Which of them I should download?

[Mikhail]

As I right, These programms without installation. How do I use it? Simply unpack the archieve and run avidemux3.exe?

[Jan Gruuthuse]

on the second link you have installer.

[Mikhail]

Thank you very much. It is work with your ToDVD.py file. But there are some troubles:
