Poll: What tools do you use to convert videos?
marx, put one of those in as "Other". If enough people put it in as other then it'll get automatically added as a selectable option I think.

@DJ_Rambo, I didn't see the h264 option when using Sorenson Squeeze? Can you give me a screenshot of your settings. Also does it allow encoding in batch?
Question for anyone: Who's using quicktime pro? Does it have the option to convert from VOB to h.264? Or maybe does it allow you to rip straight from DVD to h.264? I was thinking of upgrading to quicktime pro.
So far i'm using:
DVD decrypter to rip dvd's into VOB
SUPER: to convert(it doesn't work 100%). Handbrake doesn't at all for me.

I have all my files ripped to VOB already. I downloaded Handbrake, so I could utilize the scratch recommended settings (plug-in), but it won't recognize the .VOB file. They show up in the 'Input' line, but I get an error message. I deleted the other files (VIDEO_TS...) that are ripped with the VOB file (2 or 3 other files each time I rip a VOB), so I guess that is the issue (handbrake is looking for one of those identifying menu files...which I don't need, so delete...cuz I don't want to rename 3 or 4 files for every VOB). Any suggestions?
BTW, I have had good success with imToo MPEG convertor (which I purchased a few months back), however it does not offer increased 'Key Frame' settings. This is an issue because when I cue up tracks mid-point or do instant doubles, it takes the video a few seconds to 'catch up' with the audio position.. so I thought I would give handbrake a try.

Actually, with Handbrake, you can (at least on the ver. I'm using for MAC) add more .VOB's in the Queue using the "Add to Queue" button or the short cut (command + B)

Handbrake is designed for ripping and encoding from DVDs, so it needs all the extra files in the VIDEO_TS directory. It's no good for converting lone VOB files (if it even can?).

Can serato please release the BEST batch process for Mac using Visual Hub to convert lone VOBs?
It takes SO long to convert that I don't ever want to have to do it over again.
Also, I currently have my VOBs titled as follows:
Artist - Title [ 100 BPM - DVD Album - Genre].VOB
Is there a mac tool that can fill in my MP4 tags from the file name once I'm done with the conversion process?

video-sl doesn't currently support vob or mpeg1/2. you will need to transcode to mp4 for now.
At 3:49 PM 8 January 2008
D-Twizzle wrote
VOB essentially is MPEG-2. When you rip your DVDs to VOB you're probably leaving the video data unchanged, but when you rip them to MPEG-2 you're probably reencoding them (possibly at a lower bitrate) which will lower the quality.
Either way, D-Twizzle is right, VIDEO-SL currently does not support MPEG-2 so neither will play. At this stage it's best to transcode to MPEG-4 or h.264 depending on the power of your computer.

I believe it can depend on how powerful your computer is, but my pick would be h.264 in an mp4 container with careful attention to getting the keyframe spacing right. Second to that would be a specific MPEG-4 codec in a container that matches best with it. An example might be Apple's MPEG-4 codec in an mp4 container, or XVid or DivX in an avi container.
h.264 will require more processing power than an MPEG-4, but will give higher quality video for the same file size.
When going for an MPEG-4 codec I believe the choice of container is important because the playback tools (Quicktime and whatever plugins you've got installed for Quicktime) are optimised better or worse for different combinations. So while for example Quicktime might be happy to play XVid inside an avi, it might be less happy to play XVid inside an mp4. The exact combinations of MPEG-4 codec to container that work best are beyond my current knowledge though.

handbrake works you just gotta do some work in the beginning,
pick chapter 1 to 1 then save as (name of artisr and song ) and select save as type =mp4
then quere it
then select 2 of 2 and save as (name of artisr and song ) and select save as type should still be mp4
and que this also when your done naming em all then click on encode and let it do the rest , when it's done 10 hours later you will have all 40 or so tracks in mp4 format and seperated by chapters and labled by artist and song .
when you are naming em , goto promo only's website and look up the video you are ripping and click on printer friendly version , use this as a refrence, you can copy paste the name or song and artist (so you don't even have to type in the info just copy , paste)
also some of the songs will say chapters 2,3
when they do then on handbrake instead of putting 2 - 2 . you enter 2 - 3 and the next one stays the same 3 to 3 unless its 3,4 on the promo only list ,
it's really pretty easy , and the computer does most of the work don't forget to enter the v-sl preset.

i had similar settings like that but yours seem alot worse than mine.. I received a reply from Matt G stating:
the keyframes in that file are really far apart (average of 105 frames apart, where optimal is around 20), which puts a lot more pressure on your CPU. Coupled with your CPU being below the minimum system requirements, I think that explains why you're getting stuttering.
The Pentium D CPUs are a lot less powerful than the Core Duo/Core 2 Duo CPUs, which makes the GHz measure of them a little misleading.
There's an article on converting DVDs using Handbrake that might be helpful: www.scratchlive.net
Otherwise, in whichever program you're using to do the conversions, you'll want to look out for keyframe settings and try for a setting of a keyframe every 20 or so frames.
Also, look to see if you've got VIDEO-SL configured to use the largest buffers you can. That will help too.

Elbon, keyframe spacing of 50 is much better than 200+ :) It may well be good enough to get decent performance.
VIDEO-SL can play avi files now. Possibly you don't have the necessary codecs installed. Try playing the same files in Quicktime and see if they work. If not then it might help to install the Divx codec from www.divx.com

But the cool thing about is that you can have it set with all the songs and names to rip. It can do the hole CD for you with track numbers. so just drop the cd and come back later to see the finish work.

I use a free program called DVD Shrink to rip the DVD's and you can do it by chapters or take what you want, Promo Only has issues becasue sometimes they have 2 vob files for one video. You can reaurthor and make them one. It rips fast and is very stable.
Then I use a program that I recommend to anyone that does not understand containers and codecs called Super C , that program is the shit and it's also free and it does all kinds of conversions. I just wish it ripped directly from the DVD via chapters.
As A PC guy I tried lots of programs but this combo is the best that I found to work for me. Every PC is diffrent so try and find your combo or that one program,,, like Im too ripper is damn good but it didn't rip the correctly every time, may due to coverting directly from DVD.. If you are like me,,,,, I don't want to pay for shit as I just brought the mixer and the plug in and now videos.
Just so you know I never got handbreak to work correctly even with serato settings. Anyway good luck and I hope this helps someone.

In case anyone wants to know what I did here it is. I have a PC and it worked on my dual core and my P4 with no issues. Videos run on Vista and XP using SLVI use a free program called DVD Shrink to rip the DVD's and you can do it by chapters or take what you want, Promo Only has issues becasue sometimes they have 2 vob files for one video. You can reaurthor and make them one. It rips fast and is very stable.
Then I use a program that I recommend to anyone that does not understand containers and codecs called Super C , that program is the shit and it's also free and it does all kinds of conversions. I just wish it ripped directly from the DVD via chapters.
As A PC guy I tried lots of programs but this combo is the best that I found to work for me. Every PC is diffrent so try and find your combo or that one program,,, like Im too ripper is damn good but it didn't rip the correctly every time, may due to coverting directly from DVD.. If you are like me,,,,, I don't want to pay for shit as I just brought the mixer and the plug in and now videos.
Just so you know I never got handbreak to work correctly even with serato settings. Anyway good luck and I hope this helps someone.
Yup! This One is confined to be working on PC's. For some reason I'm having problem with DVD Decrypter for having audion unsync when converted to MP4. Thanks funk!

how big are your guys mp4's usually? if i set to 2500 and 20 keyframe interval? audio is 160kbps
My first attempt created a larger file than the original :P oops.
My second created a 133mb file (compared to a 200mb vob).
I think automkv is working best for me, does anyone havce a xml profile they could send me?
Thanks for everything so far guys, you have a great community here.

I am having a problem with visual hub for mac, no matter what settings I make, I seem to not be able to get higher than audio at 165kbps. Also, if I use higher than the standard quality, the file is almost 100MB.
Can someone please post their settings for visual hub for mac that is producing files with higher than 165kbps audio and total file size in a decent range of 50-60MB.
Thanks.

OK I took the original file and used quicktime pro to convert one at 224 and the other at 320. Loaded the vids into ssl built overviews and they show as 224 and 320.
I also have my other video from visual hub. SO we have 3 of the same vids with 128, 224 and 320. When I load them into ssl and checkout the waveforms. I don't see a difference from those 3 audio tracks.
Maybe Im wrong, but I don't think it matters if you set the bitrate higher with visual hub or quicktime, the file size does get bigger but the waves are the same.
Ill have to add them to audacity and check out the spectrum of each track to see if there is a difference.

Hey bro its pretty easy. Vegas is an editor it can convert but you won't want to do it that way.
I'm not a PC Expert but what I use for PC right now is magic Video converter which only batch converts files. I have a friend that uses DVDRIPPER PLATINUM with this you can just putthe dvd in and it will convert the vob's to MP4's
If I used a PC thats what I would use.

2 vestax pdx1000 mk1's with stanton .305 needles and ortofon digiwax needles.
and i keep reading goods and bads with handbrake and visual hub, can anyone recommend the best? also, since i had virtual dj before, all my files are .vob right now, and i keep reading that either re-ripping the dvds with one file at a time is the best but takes forever and then doing with this other program as a batch, works good.
also, can anyone point out the thread on how to set up the programs?
my bad for being a complete noob, but i got tired of using vdj, and the only reason i hung on so long with it was the sampler, since i can play my drops independenetly from the decks.

its so much easier on mac to do the video encoding its silly. but thats because of the mac community, and because of the format serato prefers.
I still preffered ripping on pc because of lmoffice.com (unfortunately their server is down at the moment)
but it will title all your videos for you, and combines the chapters that promo only creates for intros to songs. i saves SOOOO MUCH TIME. especially when you are just starting to rip in your collection.

1. I see some people say that the handbrake converts are not as smooth. Anyone using handbrake having an issue with smooth file playing?
2. I converted a video with a 2000 bitrate and got a file almost half the size of the 3000 bitrate setting. Do you think I'll see a noticeable difference with the smaller file. If so, will I see it on 50 inch plasmas or just on bigger screens where a projector is displaying the video.
Thanks for your help everyone. This forum is a huge help.

Hey Jon,
I use HB to rip from PromoOnly and Mixmash DVD's.
I rip at 2600, as i feel it is the best compromise between file size and quality. I play 6 nights a week, some venues have plasmas/lcd's and some have projectors. The files i use, ase generally way better quality than the in-house systems that some of the venues use for automation durin the day, and the only comments i have had about the quality have been about how good it is.
I have noticed the occasional stutter in encryption with HB, but it is rare, and could have been more due to the encoding PC being too overworked, rather than the software being at fault.
In conclusion, HB rocks, and i recommend 2600, and dont forget to use the extra settings in the serato .hb settings file.
Good luck.

I suppose it depends on what you are ripping from, but most dvd's are 720x576.
If you resize, you may get some quality loss.
I did try the ripper and hub route, but it seemed a lot of work, for not a lot of improvement.
Still, whatever works for you. If one thing worked for everyone, we'd all be bored !! ;)

Yeah Phoenix...it's just a little more work for a little bit of improvement. What was a lot of work for me with handbrake was going back and checking every file to make sure the whole song was ripped and didn't bleed into the next track. The way it wouldn't correctly ripped the DVD's into the correct chapters was enough for me to stop using it.
As for the size...when we were all trying to figure the correct format for VSL, the 680x480 and 720x480 worked the best so I just stuck with that. Maybe I need to rethink now since I got the same MBP as you...except I'm running 10.5.4 with a 500GB internal HD. haha

I have not had any problems with handbrake like the chapter bleedng ones you describe.
Jonathan, make sure that you have "de-interlace" set to at least "slower", not sure if nathan updated the online .hb file for this, but apart from that, mine is the same as the .hb that you downloaded.
Unfortunately, things do perform slightly differently on everyones own setup, so it's mpossible for any of us to say .. "do this and it will work" but we're always happy to pass on anything that we have discovered, and i hope it helps you work out what works best for you.

On a Mac, I have the best luck ripping VOBs with Mac the Ripper, converting them to hires QuickTimes with MPEG Streamclip, doing whatever work I have to do on them, then exporting to mp4 using After Effects.
Adobe has different export options than all the QuickTime-based applications. It lets you get down into the iPod spec and tweak things with really good results.
I think if people really want to jump in the video game they should throw down the combined $1200 for educational versions of FCP studio and CS Production Premium. You might as well throw Ableton 7 on that list of required tools too. I know that's expensive, but this is an expensive game.

my advise: don't build your way up to getting what you really want. and don't buy cheap.
If your getting into DJ'n and want a RANE 57 then go buy it. You will kick yourself if you think about how much money you spent on other stuff while you were trying to afford it.
Buy Quality, buy it to last, treat it good.
Dont be cheap, you'll never be able to afford anything except shit if you get paid worth shit...

Just an observation, in HB, if you have the "2 pass" set in the video settings, this seems to offset the video and audio slightly. I have had much better results with this UNTICKED, and i have noticed only a VERY slight difference in video quality, only after blowing it up on a 100" lcd projector screen :)
My vids are 2500k h.264 AAC, with all the rest of the settings as per the VSL template.

Visual Hub seems to be no more - at least according their site.
So for Mac users what is the next best option.
I only need to go from MPEG2 as all my source files come to me already in this format.
I just used Handbrake and the Video-SL script but it does not seem to be the best quality.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

you van still run visual hub through the sourceforge link. This link
transcoderredux.svn.sourceforge.net
you will need to install xcode in order to run it. They have renamed it to filmredux. But it works the same if not better.

I just installed Video SL 1.1 and had probs viewing video's. Used total video converter to convert to mp4 format and works wonders the quality is amazing. It is not even listed in the poll and should be listed. You can even make the audio bitrate higher and maximize the audio sound for video's. It's literally the best program!

I tried to convert these files using compressor from final cut. The files convert flawlessly to h264 but the sound isn't converting with them? Quicktime pro also doesn't recognize the sound of the original mpeg2's? Is there a way to get the sound to work? Something with mux or demux? I don't understand this? Is there an easier program for mac that will do batch conversion to h264 from mpeg2? I can't get visual hub to work because I am running Tiger in my office, not leopard. I also tried handbrakewith no luck also.
All help is appreciated.

If you have PC then most programs on these fourms can do what you want. Try MPeg Streamclip its a mac program, Swift tuned me on to it. if I have problems which I do with mac on conveting from time to time I use it and it works fine for the most part. I have the same issue with one video that Streamclip can't get the audio to work with all other work fine. If you do find a way to get it to work post it on here so we will know.

Mpeg Streamclip works great and it is pretty fast too compared to other software I have tried. What are the best settings to get the most out of the videos? I know what The Rane Scratch Live guys say to make the settings but the videos just don't look as crisp as they do with Virtual DJ. For example I have a 3 minute mpeg 2 file that is 158mb. If I make the settings at 740x480 that should be a good ratio but then how big do i want to make the mpeg 4. I set it to best quality and it came out as 214.3mb. Would it be best to try t6o get the mpeg 4 around the same size?

Try adjusting the quality to get desired effect. Reduce quality to 50 percent and take it from there if you like the way it looks while played then you have found your settings.. I don't use it to covert much as I do all my converting on my pc. I dare not say what you need to set streamclip to as the video Gods will chime in. I will tell you who knows most about it and the would be A-swift he can tell you anything about it.... Good luck grasshopper.

I believe it's pretty hard to get the quality up for audio in an mp4. There are apps that do it. like Sony Vegas for eg, but these are VERY expensive, and are not as configurable as handbrake for converting video.
I find it best to use an app that can demux etc. But then serato has issues reading the bitrates and bpm of the final muxed files.
Rock ---(Me)--- Hard Place !!
Handbrake produces excellent video results, and the audio is good, but not great.
I regularly use handbrake'd files in clubs, on Funktion 1 sound systems, and they sound ok.
Hope this helps.

Might be worth you getting the trial of Sony Vegas and converting a few vob's with it to see what you think?

as far as I can tell this app saves all your settings unlike handbrake, allows batch editing, just load all your files in one go and it will automatically create the new files based on the source name in your designated destination folder, plus it's fast... and you can tweak how it utilizes your pcs cores but by defualt is set to max speed...
not free but you can easily download a working version from the bay of pirates...
