    Hello, my set top box can play divx, so it's mostly xvid/divx I deal
    with. However, I've a bunch of mpeg 1 (352/240) that I would like
    to put on a DVD. I'd like to do it without reencoding them, if it's possible.
    I guess what I'd like is to be able to author a VCD, but on a DVD.
    Is it possible ? Any other solutions?

    Thanks for any info.

    Thanks for the pointer to the guide.

    Regarding whether my player supports mpeg 1/2,
    I presume you mean when the files are just written as data?

    I tried it with mpeg 1 before and it's seems like it supports it,
    but when they're played the picture is just a small square in the middle
    of the TV. - So not sure, but I'll look into it some more.

    Thanks,
    Dave

    Yes, that's what I meant, as data. If it did, you could extract the MPEG from the dat file with IsoBuster, or convert the dat to MPEG with VCDGear and burn a data disc.
