I want to burn a VCD

elitecloud · **I want to burn a VCD -** 12-15-2004, 01:29 AM

What's the best program to do so?

the .avi is around 640 megs - and i tried with nero and it said it was to big, so i would have to find a program where i could cut back the quality of the movie a bit

Please thanks

should've said that before..a VCD is a virtual CD rom and puts a new (fake) cd rom drive in your pc so you can launch things w/o the CD. biggrin:

youll have to convert it to mpg first which is a pain in the ass to do. ive only done it once ... and probably wont do it again.

VCD's are only good for viewing on the PC. Alcohol 120 or 121 should have a burn feature in it that may work for this though.

As the Sexiest Man South Of The Mason Dixon said - the AVI has to be converted to an MPG which will blow the fucker up about 3-4 times its regular size. . .so putting that file on a CD is not an option. . .unless you want to cut the movie up - which is pointless. Then just use a DVD authoring program to put the MPG on a DVD.

Be warned - the conversion process is NOT a smooth, quick operation.

... you can do it if you really want the movie ... ive done it , and the tools to do it with you can easily download ( non warezed ). it just takes a LONG time. if you search that vcdhep page youll find the info you need to do it ... i tried but couldnt come up with the exact tutorials i used to do it with.
