Dolphin "Classic" Games Part 13 (86 Playoffs Browns)

The 50 posts requirement is a suggestion so that I can advise of any developments as they happen by PM.

easy way to reencode them with tempenc and the right template.

It is pretty easy to convert the video in PAL dvd to NTSC dvd by re-encoding with something like tmpgnc, the trick is keeping the sound in sync. Because the standards are different frame rates as well as resolutions, it's easy to mess up the sync. I've learned by converting some stuff not available in the U.S. (Twin Peaks season 2, for instance).

If you have the know-how, rip a wav of the audio, process thru "besweet", then recombine. Check that "videohelp.com" site for many, many tips.

My thinking was you if you're encoding from tape the first time, you just set your files to 720x480 & 29.97fps...it's also helpful to make the video "progressive" rather than "interlaced" (looks better to those watching on computers", and go with the "2 pass variable bitrate" conversion at the highest possible quality settings...

You'll get very large initial files, which you can then whittle down to whatever format/size you like.

Got it. Thanks. I'll try and be more active as I'm definately interested in the Dolphins and any old games I can get my hands on.

Thanks,

OK...I've been out of the loop for a couple weeks. I take it that we are starting a new way of spreading the games? Am I correct in thinking that we must get to 50 posts to have a chance at continuing on with the torrents? I'm sorry if you guys have covered all this. I browsed through the posts, and just wanted to clarify. Any help is appreciated.

Also, I just found a box of older Dolphin tapes that I had in storage. I'm going to go through them and see what I have. I don't have alot of Marino games, but a couple that stand out are the Indy games from (I think) his last year - Something like 34-31 Miami, and 37-34 Indy - where Marino had the meltdown at the press conference afterward!) that were great games. I also have the playoff game where Lamar Smith ran for 200 yards. I have a bunch of others. I just got a capture device for my PC, too. I'll start to learn to cap the games, and help build the collection. Let me know what I can do to the help the team. Thanks!

For a variable bit rate audio divx file, you open the file in virtualdub, convert the sound file to a wav file (huge) and then encode with TMPGenc. In order to do that with a dvd, it would be too many conversions, but maybe there is another way to pull the sound off into a constant bitrate filetype and then put that file in the sound portion of the reencode.

Same number of steps. I use "dvd2avi" to demux. (1) then tmpgnc to re-encode (2), creating a mpeg. Use your preferred program to author to dvd (3)...
