how to burn avi to cd-r

Actually Dela I am trying to split the file so that I can have two sections ready to go before I run them through my AVI2SVCD program. This is consistent with the game plan Leebear laid out in the above website I mentioned in my last reply.

I don't know if you have read that website but everything there is totally the method for how I am try to go from avi movie downloads to SVCD. I am following him step by step and on my first movie it went great but now I can't do the first step with splitting the movie in VirtualDub because it gives me that error. I downloaded another virtualDubMod or something like that. Same erro message there too.

Now I have run into a second problem. When I convert in AVI2SVCD program I am getting error message that says "Read Beyond file."

I don't know what that means! But I can tell you hitting problems over and over again really blows. I am having many more failures than successes.

It seems like all the movies from sharereactor come in with some problem. Either video without sound, sound without video, or files that can't be played.

On the ones that can't be played I am just assuming that my computer doesn't have the proper codec or something, I will deal with that problem later after I learn how to get the movies without sound or without video to work.

So Leebear has game plan. It worked on one movie but now I am running into error message in AVI2SVCD "read beyond the end of file error" and the VirtualDub error I mentioned last.

Hopefully once these two bugs are worked out I will be set to keep moving.

 

Why can't I burn any VCDs through NERO. I can do it fine with EZCD creator but it has never worked with NERO. Help??

 

Hi

 

I do have EZCD creator on the same computer but direct CD is never running. If I look in my current running processes.....there is no directcd.exe and I even checked MSCONFIG......direct cd doesnt start when the computer starts.....could there be any other reason???

 

Its the version that came with my burner. It says it won't work with any other one except the one it came with.

 

nope.....nero works fine when burning everything else, but when it comes to VDCs it never works. by the way.....isnt there a command in windows xp where you can crewate an installer. Its something ypu type in the "run" box

 

I will be sure to try it. Thanks

 

BTW, I *did* finally get an SVCD burned & playing properly (though I'm still not thrilled w/ the pic quality).

Here's a big note for anyone using MyDVD to burn avi's to SVCD -- don't use RealOne Player to play it. It simply loops the intro & won't play the movie. CreativePlayCenter (or something like that) plays everything wonderfully!

I'm sorry to admit it here, but I ripped NERO v99 off Kazaa to see if I could get a better SVCD quality out of it. I'll let you know as soon as I can recover my PC from the fires of Mt. Doom.

 

I dont know if this question goes in this forum or not but could someone please help me? I read here that ps2 can not play vcd or svcd, but i heard that it can play mpeg-2. Is this true? How would I go about making an mpeg-2 disc that my ps2 could read. I have an avi movie with xvid encoding I think....Im really new to all this video stuff. Thank you all very much for your help.

 

ok now im even more confused.
All I know about my ps2 is how to turn it on and watch dvds and play games. What are mod chips and reality players??

 

I do everything I see on how to burn AVI onto VCD, but I keep getting "Write Error occurred at address 77FCB032 of module 'ntdll.dll' with 00000000." right before I encoded it. Anyone know why or could help me?

 

If I downloaded a fake avi file, can i still burn it to the cd-r? If so, HOW? Thanks.
