Just can't get it to play...

[Trance4c]

Ok, I have gone though numerous fixes which I will go though, but first.. the problem I get is that any time I put in a VCD that I create, the DVD player just says:

"No Audio Data" and will not play.

Now, I'm using TMPGEnc to create the VCD .mpg files. They are being burned to a CD-RW disc and played on a CD-R/CD-RW complient DVD player. I used NanDub to create a .wav file and a silent .avi file. The TMPGEnc program is set to:

MPEG-1 352x240 29.97fps CBR 1150kbps, Layer-2 44100hz 192kbps.

I have tried VDC and SVCD formats.

In an effort to correct the audio issue I have gone into the TMPGEnc Options screen -> Environmental Settings -> VFAPI plug-in and set it to high priority. Didn't help.

Can anyone help? I have some great video that I shot and put together in Premiere that I would love the screen on my HDTV with DVD player!

Thanks

"MPEG-1 352x240 29.97fps CBR 1150kbps, Layer-2 44100hz 192kbps."

"Plain vanilla" MPEG-1 or (REQUIRED) MPEG1-VideoCD?

I truthfully can't recall, I loaded the preset Video CD (NTSC).mcf in TMPGEnc this time around which gave me this line:

Video-CD NTSC [MPEG-1 352x240 29.97fps CBR 1150kbps, Layer-2 44100hz 224kbps]

Again, I used my nosound .avi I generated in NunDub and the .wav file as well.

When I process this with TMPGEnc I get an output of another .avi file and burning this to a disc.

When I look at like a DVD disc, there is a video folder and an audio folder, granted they are not the same format.. I'm just trying to see, is there a relation between the two here I need more than just an .avi file as output from TMPGEnc?

Am I missing something? I am burning .avi and then closing the session.

In the "System" tab in TMPGEnc, make sure you have "MPEG-1, Video-CD" selected and not just "MPEG-1".

TMPGEnc is supposed to output an MPEG file (.mpg), not an AVI file. You must be mistaken (Or you have renamed your .mpg file to .avi).

To make sure this is an MPEG file, open it with GSpot, and tell us what you see over there.

Additionnaly, if you want to make sure there is some soundtrack, just open it with Media Player and see if the volume slider is disabled or not.
