    i have about six or seven movie clips which are about 300mb and in mpeg-1 format. Is it possible to fit all of those on a cd-r? Or is there any way I can put at least 3 files on there? I want to make a VCD. Plz. Help. Thnx.

    Then encoding to VCD should allow you to fit em all on one disk!

    I tried that but when I play it, the disk freezes a lot. Is that a prob with my dvd player or CD?

    By the way, In some earlier forum u said that your DVD player plays mpeg files put straight on the cd. What DVD Player do you have? Is it Multi region?

    It's a Samsung mc50 or something like that and ye when i put in mpeg-1 or mpeg 2 fils it shows up as vcd and plays lol! doesnt work with some files though! You have to get a multi region hack for it!

    What did you use to encode those files earlier?
