Hi, I am a newbie to creating VCDs, and I am finding that I am creating VCD's that dont work. Following the steps from the guide Creating VideoCDs using Nero - Burning Rom Windows XP I am transferring from .AVI to .mpg (MPEG1 PAL) via TMPGenc, This seems to work OK, Then using nero 5.5 to create a VCD using the wizard. This process seems easy, I select create VCD etc, Drag the .mpg file over to file list and select burn CD. No error occurs in Nero 'Successful box' appears. then I discard messages , Drive opens. When I attempt in reinsert the disk into PC , Nothing happens and I cannot seem to get the vcd working . The files all seem to be on the disk. Is there anything else I need to do, am I missing a step, How can I check that the .mpg file is OK, Nero gives no messages stating the .mpg is invalid. Any suggestions.
some dvd roms don't recongnize vcds without a player. This happened to a friend of mine when i gave him a vcd, and he didn't have a dvd player. Im not sure what he downloaded since i always use my standalone dvd player. here try this http://www.fwnetwork.com/description/quickvcd.html
