Basic DVD Authoring Project Part 4a - Prepare NTSC Video

Script Examples

Here are some examples of scripts constructed to frameserve my files. They're using the script elements described previously. Every script will be included with the guides on MPEG encoding, although you'll still need to know where to put the source file name.

The 39 Steps

MPEG2Source("D:\Wherever\The_39_Steps.d2v", info=3)
ColorMatrix(mode="Rec.709->Rec.601", interlaced=true, hints=true)
Lanczos4Resize(720,480)
ConvertToYUY2()

The Deadly Mantis Trailer

MPEG2Source("D:\Wherever\deadly_mantis.d2v", info=3)
ColorMatrix(mode="Rec.709->Rec.601", interlaced=true, hints=true)
tfm(d2v="D:\Wherever\deadly_mantis.d2v")
tdecimate()
Lanczos4Resize(720,480)
ConvertToYUY2()

Electric Earthquake

MPEG2Source("D:\Wherever\Electric Earthquake.d2v")
tfm(d2v="D:\Wherever\Electric Earthquake.d2v")
tdecimate()
ConvertToYUY2()

Jungle Drums

DirectShowSource("Jungle Drums.mp4", fps=23.976).KillAudio()
