jboy Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 I haven't done it myself, but here's a promising looking guide: http://www.videohelp.com/guides.php?tools=...+or+List+Guides Note that you can select the type of format conversion you want and under the "How to Category", you can filter for just Linux tools.

chalex20 Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 (edited) mencoder may do the trick. transcode tools may do it as well ( PLF ). Nevertheless, take into account that due to the very nature of MPEG compression, converting DivX( which has already been converted from the original DVD) back into DVD would result in quality degradation, and the result wouldn't generally be equal to the original DVD. And one more thing : transcode / avidemux / mencoder wouldn't bring you complete DVD image but rather MPEG files in DVD compatible format. You'd need the "dvdauthor" application to form VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS directories for you, and it's these two directories you need to feed K3B with, in order to burn your Video DVD.

Shadowchaser Posted November 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 (edited) Well i happy to say it work prefect! I installed Avidemux from PLF and then installed QDVDauthor a frontend for DVDauthor and it worked like a charm. Thank you all so much for your help, My Linux is now officially complete.
