    OK here it is, COMPLETE instructions for making a VCD!!

    First off you need a converter - a program that

    will convert the movie (.avi) to .mpeg format.

    I reccomend "TMPGEnc". You may download it at

    this URL:
    digital, digest, dvd, divx, dvdr, dvd+r, dvd-r, rip, copy, ripping, convert, backup, back, up, shrink, xvid, software, download, news, guide, article


    .html


    After downloading TMPGEnc, open it up, in the

    lower half of the TMPGEnc screen you will see 3

    boxes:
    Video Source:, Audio Source:, and Output File

    Name: .

    Click the "Browse" button at the end of Video

    Source box.
    Navigate / Find the movie you want to convert,

    and click open.

    When you pick the video source, it automatically

    picks the same file for the Audio Source and the

    Output File Name too.

    Now, at the bottom there should be a button

    called "Settings" (maybe a different name

    depending on what version you have), Click

    Settings and then a new screen pops up, on that

    screen there are 6 tabs at the top: "Video",

    "Advanced", "GOP structure", "Quantize matrix",

    "Audio", and "System".

    ok the first tab to change the settings on is

    "Video".
    It should read like this:

    Stream type: Mpeg-1 Video
    Size: 352 X 240
    Aspect ratio: 4:3 525 line (NTSC)
    Frame Rate: 29.97 fps
    Rate control mode: Constant bitrate (CBR)
    Bitrate: 1150
    Motion search precision: Normal

    Second tab to change is "Advanced".

    Video Source type: Non-interlace (progressive)
    Field order: Bottom Field first (field b)
    Source aspect ratio: 16:9 Display
    Video arrange Method: Full screen (keep aspect

    ratio)

    Now click the "Audio" tab

    Stream Type: MPEG-1 Audio Layer II
    Sample frequency: 48000
    Channel mode: Stero
    Bitrate: 160
    De-emphasis flag: None

    Now click the "System " Tab.

    Stream type: MPEG-1 Video CD

    ok your done, click "ok" at bottom of MPEG

    setting screen.
    that will bring you back to the TMPGEnc screen.

    You are now ready to convert the movie in to

    .mpg format!
    Now click "Start at top - left and wait for it

    to convert.
    thats all there is to converting.

    (This is how I make all my VCD's and they turn

    out perfect!)

    After it is done converting, you then need to

    burn it to a CD using Nero or EZ CD-Creator. I

    myself use EZ CD-Creator. you cant just burn

    the mpg to a CD then expect it to play on your

    stand alone DVD player.

    I did everything but, write it down on manillia

    paper with a crayon for you here. If you can't

    get it to work after this post. Sorry I broke

    it down as much as I could.
Working...
