Add file size target

While the "Choose Disk Size" options are handy for output most of the time, I would like an added option to allow me to choose a target filesize. This would allow me to convert individual AVI files to a target size so I can put 2, 3, or 4 of these on one DVD. Yes, I know about renaming the files CD1, etc. to get them to be encoded together. But I'd rather have each file seperate since they are episodes of a TV show so I can use TMPG DVD Author to bring them in as seperate tracks on one DVD.

Otherwise AVI2DVD is awesome. It's doing some DivX conversions that other programs couldn't handle.

if you can, :wink: put the option to lower audio bitrate: it's more desirable than video bitrate, 192 kbps is still good!

About adding subtitles... and sorry if it's been requested before...

Would it be possible to make some sort of preview where you, with a single frame could see how the subtitles look (in size & position) on the movie?

Sometimes the black bars are different in size so using the same bottom margin, doesn't always work out the best way.

Edit: And by the way -- nice new look on the website ;)

I would like to be able to increase the final file size, ie, at the moment I select dvd5 and the final file size can be 2,5 gig, I would like to be able to increase to 4 gig to increase the quality of the final file.

Secondly I would like the ability to do batch encoding so I dont have to go through each individual avi.

Choose disc size or file size

Since a picture is worth a thousand words, here is an image to show what I imagined the option to select an output file size might look like:

I guessed that if you don't select the disc type, then the output types must be expanded to all 3 - DVD, SVCD and VCD - correct?

Radio buttons allow selection of either disc size (and number of discs) or file size. If file size is selected, this value will be used to calculate the bitrate to produce near this file size.

The ability to select a file size would be very helpful to me.

trusfm: Good luck on your exams and I look forward to see what you have for your next release!

Another request: Make the Subtitle Bottom Margin available for each subtitle instead of one setting for all.

I would like to be able to make a DVD with 2 x English subtitles but where one is for widescreen tvs and the other for older 4:3 tvs.

Audio boosting please
