hey i have a .DAT movie file, it is 800mb+ and i wanted to burn it onto a vcd because im sure u can make cds but burn them as vcds and fit alot more stuff on the cd, can any1 tell me how to burn a vcd with nero. thnx
Well first of all you have to make sure that the MPEG file you are trying to burn is VCD standard (NTSC - MPEG-1 352x240 23.97fps/29.97fps, CBR 1150kb/s Video and 48HZ 224kb/s MP2 audio) (PAL - 352x288 25fps, CBR 1150kb/s Video and 48HZ 224kb/s MP2 audio). From the sound of it, your DAT file came straight from a VCD and probably is standard already. I however, would suggest you use VCDEasy to build an image instead of using Nero fully. Firstly though, if your DAT file came from a VCD, you should open VCDEasy and click tools - mpeg tools, use CDXA2MPEG to generate a TRUE MPEG file from you DAT file. Then you can go back to the main VCDEasy screen and add in the mpg file. You can add chapter points and change playback info if you like. Choose where you want to save the image and click Go ro Start or whatever the button says. Then you can burn the image with a lot of different buring software like Alcohol 120% or Nero (recorder - burn image, or in older verions, file - burn image). Hope that helps! EDIT: Also, when its VCD we are talking in terms of minutes not MB's. 800MB = 80min's. You can overburn a couple of minutes at the very most, and thats not even recommended! _X_X_X_X_X_[small]http://www.BillLonero.com - Check out a true artists music! aD channel on IRC: irc.addictz.net #ad_buddies Newbie IRC Guide- http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/47221[/small]
