 so I can create a DVD (70 odd shorter files.

 They are off a Kogan video camera (read: pretty cheap, generic from SE Asia). Have tried various things to convert/publish and always seem to get a DVD that starts playing OK, but after a minute or 2 starts faltering, won't FF or jump to next chapter etc.
Couple of command lines I have tried:
ffmpeg -i <input filename> -target pal-dvd -sameq <output filename>
ffmpeg -i <input filename> -target pal-dvd <output filename>
etc (not very inventive... Know next-to-nothing about ffmpeg, but willing to learn!)
Have then tried to author/burn the DVD with kdenlive/devede.
Any help appreciated!

Thanks, John.
