GOALS
======

just to provide a future helpfull shell script to
create VOB'able DVD prepared mpeg2 PS files outta VDR recordings (or else).

so this tool chain and its callee scripts purpose is to
find a solution to reach such a goal, which is hopefully almost done now ;-)

you can use the resulting mpeg2 PS to author your own DVD,
using for example dvdauthor >= 0.5.3 !!

so the chain could be read like this:

1.)	MPEG-PS,MPEG-PES,.. --- vdrsync.pl ----> MPEG-ES (a/v)
		- vdrsync.pl demuxer demuxes the ES streams (a/v) off the source
		- vdrsync.pl also synchronizes the resulting a/v ES streams,
		  which is very necessary for dynamic a/v asyncs within VDR recordings !

2.)	MPEG2-ES (huge)     -- requant --> MPEG2_ES (smaller)
		- shortens the video ES using Metakines requant tool !

3.)	MPEG-ES (a/v)       -- mplex   --> MPEG-PS  (DVD-V conformant)
		- mux the ES streams (a/v) back together,
		  DVD-V conformant 

4.)     MPEG-PS             -- dvdauthor-> DVD-V image (DVD-V)
		- create a burnable DVD-V image



What do you need:
=================

   GET AND INSTALL:
   ====================
	- latest mjpegtools, at least mjpegtools-1.6.1.90 !
		- dl it from http://sourceforge.net/projects/mjpeg
		- make your own binaries !!
		- we do need the mplex tool of this packages !

	- latest dvdauthor, at least version 0.5.3 !
		- dl it http://dvdauthor.sourceforge.net/
		- make your own binaries !!
		- we do need dvdauthor to make a DVD-V image !


   INSTALL (bundled):
	- M2VRequantizer's requant, if you like to use the fast way to
	  shorten mpeg2 video ES !
		- sources of with my patched version is attached here ..
			- i had to do a little bugfix for corrupted ES streams ..

		- 2 little shell scripts are provided to create the binary ..

	- vdrsync.pl
		- you need at least version >= 0.1.2.2
		  this is an unpatched version which fits this requirements ..


INSTALLATION
===============

Assume VDR video dir is:
	/video

Assume repackmpeg2 is:
	/video/repackmpeg2

then just 
	mkdir /video/repackmpeg2
and cp all this files to it, 
plus 
	cp reccmds.conf to /video

if you choose other dir's, edit repackmpeg2_vdr.sh and reccmds.conf !

Tested with VDR 1.2.5 !


THE FILES
=========

repackmpeg2Many.sh		- READ THIS NEXT - example repackmpeg2.sh usage ..

repackmpeg2.sh			- the repack bash shell script: demux, requant, mux

reccmds.conf			- the example vdr record command set

repackmpeg2_vdr.sh		- the "pipe" for reccmd.conf to repackmpeg2.sh

dodvd.sh			- a little helper script for DVD-V creation,
				  using the dvdauthor >= 0.53

M2VRequantizer-20030925.tar.bz2	- the patched M2VRequantizer sources -> make a binary

vdrsync.pl			- the demuxer version >= 0.1.2.2

vdrsync-0.1.2.2.tgz.bz2		- the sources of vdrsync.pl
