You can use EasyCD Creator 5, it has an option for burning VCD's.

I think it is called Flask.

Btw....it will take a long time if the files are big.

k, got it downloaded but it will only take in mpegs not avi's, i need to convert from avi to mpeg, any other ideas or do i have settings messed up?

OH YEAH! Right up my ally here! Instead of my typing out about 30K characters, I will just post some links to some of my favorite Divx tutorial sites. These places are where I started out......... So far, I have encoded about 40 Divx movies and plan to do one tonight!

Here ya go:

1. http://www.doom9.org/divx-encoding.htm .... (This place is VERY informative!! I use the new Divx 4.0 and like it very much, but if you want to give divx 3.11a a shot then do so. You will need the divx codecs and Frahnholfer mp3 codec which can be found somewhere on these sites...)

2. http://www.divx-digest.com/index.html

3. http://www.digital-digest.com/nickyguides

These guides should give you plenty of info, tools, and tutorials...... Good Luck!

I don't know the program. I thought it was supposed to do that. I'll see what I can find.

Yeah, I use TMPGEnc.

[alanjh]

btw. the TMPGEnc Mpeg 2 encoder expires on a regular basis, make sure you download the latest version if you want to write mpeg2's

Here is the specific article from one of the above posted sites if you haven't already found it.

Get a copy of nero bruning rom from ahead software. It will convert the avi and vreate the vcd all by itself. I like it better than EZ CD anyway.

I just rename the files. if its car.mpeg I just rename it to car.avi
seems to work.

i tried running the encoder last night, it took 5 hrs to go thru a movie, it turned a 500mb avi into a 1.2 gig mpeg and i still get the same message in ezcd5 saying its an invalid file. ive tried to get nero working a coupel times now, does anyone have a version that will work with win 2k pro and also do u have the serial code for it? please aim me, thanks, rob
