Avi Straight To The Cd As Vcd Or Svcd?

[dmorgan89]

Is there a way to burn the .avi straight to the cd without converting it to mpg and it still work on the dvd player? can a .avi file be burned as a vcd or svcd?

A movie has to be a compatible mpg file to work as a VCD. You can just drop an avi straight into Nero and Nero will convert it to mpg and burn it, but don't expect good results. Gotta use TMPGEnc and wait out those hours I'm afraid.

Yes Some Dvd players play .avi's ... the best way is to burn one and try it

can a .avi file be burned as a vcd or svcd?
no mpg is the vcd format ..like skillian said you will have to convert it to the correct format with tmpgenc or the crappy nero encoder
