I have just bought a standalone DVD-player and also a brand new PC (costed about 5000 USD). I'm quite new to this DVD-thing (no DVD on the old computer).
I have a few movies I have downloaded and they are in .mpg, .avi and .divx format. As I understand it VCD's are in .mpg format and should be able to play on a standalone DVD player. Does that goes for any .mpg file or is there special .mpg formats that is VCD's? How do I check a file if it's playable on my standalone DVD? I've read som other posts here and as I understand it I have to convert my .avi files using TMPEGenc to get them into VCD-format. That thing I can work out later by reading on here.
The .divx files, what are they? Can they be played on the standalone DVD or do I have to convert them in any way?
I plan to connect the PC to my TV so then I can play the files in the PC and watch them on the TV, but some stuff I would like to be able to play on the standalone DVD so I want them on CD's.
Thanks in advance.
