This 99 MB .sfs provides tovid for Lucid Puppy 528, if I did everything right.
tovid is a freakin' symple commandline ute which converts .mp4, .flv and other video files into the AUDIO_TS/VIDEO_TS format.
You can then use K3B or whatever ta burn a DVD to watch on TV.
tovid includes a gui, but to use it ya must add Python-tk (not included).
Package contents:
tovid-0.30.2, from Ubuntu package tovid_0.30.2-1_i386.deb. Tried newer versions up through 0.34, couln' makem werk.
Plus, contains its trainwreck of dependencies either missing or not new enough in Lucid Puppy 528. Hope I putem where they bulong.
Includes the XaraLX-ImageMagick .sfs made by MU, so if you already have that mounted, unmount it first.
ffmpeg and mplayer are very new versions. If you have a .pet mounted which supplies same, you will have to rename before mouonting this .sfs.
Probably should run ldconfig first thing, after you boot with the .sfs mounted.
Example use: you have subdirectory /mnt/sdc3/VideoFiles, containing BigVideo.mp4
(Keerrection, it won't do .mp4's direcktly; use
cd /mnt/sdc3/VideoFiles
ffmpeg -i BigVideo.mp4 BigVideo.flv
first and then do
Code: Select all
tovid -in BigVideo.flv -out MyBigVideoDVD -quality 10
Self explanetory from there.
tovid takes awhile to do the necessary parssing and encoding. It notifies you of progress.
To test before you burn to DVD, you can open the .IFO file in the VIDEO_TS subdirectory in MPlayer, gxine or what-have-you.
Entering just 'tovid' without parameters gives a brief help. Home page is:

Hope this works well fer ya. Prolbaly some genius out there can strip some of it, smallify it. libguile has t b in both places though. No idee why.
