    No thats fine but Im confused because the error you describe seems like an "out of memory" error but with 256, i'd doubt it! those specs are well above standard so I wonder! Did you try posting on the TMPGEnc BBS???

    I am not quite sure why you need a special plugin, guys. I know I am late to the game on this enquiry, but if you want to convert SVCD to VCD, just do it with TMPGEnc, load up the video file, load up the VCD PAL or NTSC settings, leave your settings pretty much as is and hit start. Takes about 2 hours for an hour of video on your stats.

    Did it yesterday. NP

    Memory is not an issue at that level, as the file is written back to the disk whilst processing, so not much in the cache.

    Paul.

    Usually MPEG-2 files which high birate will need an mpeg-2 plugin for TMPGEnc to encode it. Most MPEG-2 files will work though, should anyway :)

    to activate the plugin you need to run the M2VCONF file, the standard settings worked ok for me then u just click OK, everything should work when u try to use an mpeg 2 file with tmpgenc, then just set up tmpgenc pretty much the same as for a dvd backup.

    That re-encode will loose a lot of quality, have you considered trying the vcd header trick?? :)
