please help ive burned to many coasters trying to copy vcd from h/d to cd but when the cd is finished for some reason there are five seperate folders... when i try to play cd....cd1 ext mpegav segment vcd....please help me burn a movie that plays...my head hurts from banging against the wall....by the way the files im using are fine i play them before tryng to burn.....thanx peace cc
Dear c2at1time, Let's just focus on burning discs, not yourself. *_* Can you tell us: 1) what is the original format of the movie clips (e.g. mpeg, dat)? 2) what procedures have you been using?
this is what the file is video comp. divx codec video sample size 24bit data rate 65k frame rate 29 frames per second.....what i did was chose vcd on nero....put in file ..movie to be burn..nero seemed to encode it and says burning succesful.....but always those 5 folders vcd ext mpgav segment cd1 are on the cd when i put it incomp to play...and doesnt do anything in dvd player...the only thing i got to work so far is encode the movie with winavi to vcd the burn as iso with nero and it worked still when i try to burn that same encoded file on winamp those 5 files are the only thing that come up....i have windows messenger...cc2at1time@hotmail.com....i wonder if its a codec thing??..i am soooo frustrated...i appreciate any help...thank you very much
also the audeo format is mpeg layer 3 bit rate 23 k [AM]Wedding.Crashers.CAM-HafVCD.(1-2) i choose videi cd...disk at once option....i tried track at once also...then i hit burn...thanx again...sry if im not explaining rite....peace cc
Dear c2at1time, It's quite normal for a vcd to have the five folders that you mentioned. So that probably has nothing to do with the failure. You may try: 1) encode the divx to vcd (and save to harddisk) with winavi 2) click on the .dat file inside the mpegav folder to see if you can play the movie. Post the results and we'll figure out what to do next. Good luck!
thanx ...i encoded with winavi to vcd then i burned as a iso and it worked.... even on the dvd player.....whats still bugging me is why nero is not able to encode these movies...i know in the past nero encoded the files i was getting....it seems to be encoding but as you know those five files come out...i appreciate your help....thanx
What can I say, I like Nero a lot myself, but ask around and people would tell you that it's not a very good encoder. Anyway, if things are working now, just use this method from now on. Happy VCD burning!
i really appreciate your help...i wish that nero would encode my files..but by running thru winavi then burning as an iso well it works at least.....now to bin and cue...ive burned a few with success.but a few mistakes..i mounted image..cue..on alchohol 120 or damion and some of the cue's open up with those five files again cd1 mpegav vcd ext segment....although i can get the mpegav folder to play on my puter..with nero mix..what do i have to do to burn them so they will open properly.. and not those five seperate folders..thanx in advance.....peace cc
heys guys just before i burn a dvd, does anyone know if i have to check mark the spot where it says verify disk in Nero or leave it blank?
