Lightbulb dvd to vcd...

Here are a couple of sites that should be able to help you, just type in the conversion you want and the last one is where I would start. Good luck, let me know how it goes.

http://www.bxbweb.com
http://www.divx-digest.com

http://www.vcdhelp.com/dvdtovcd.htm

needs, dvd rom, cd burner with software that will make vcd( the guides do not tell you this)

Lightbulb Conversions

There are several very good guides out there at the sites I posted and very easy to follow. So, check them out. I used the same one from the vcdhelper.

When I try to convert an AVI to an MPG using TMPGEnc it take about 20 hours. Am I doing something wrong here, or is that how long it really take to encode it? In a guide I read it said it should only take a few hours. 20 hours is ridiculous.

Unhappy Time...

It all depends on your machine, you basicly put the conversion process through your sound card, video and cpu; frame by frame. So, if you have any bottle neck in your machine it will take a while. On a 566 cel, with the video; it would be about ten hours all together. So, if there is a bottle neck somewhere twenty hours is not hard to believe. I make half while I sleep and the other half the next day. Also, check the amout of ram and system resources you have availible. use the task manager to turn off items that are not needed during this process. IE nortons or Macfee... Good luck.

I've got 512 megs ddr ram, 5.1 onboard digital sound, AMD XP 1600+, Geforce3 Ti200, and a 60 gig 7200 rpm hard drive, so 20 hours is insane.

I went through the wizard this time and now it's only taking an hour per each half of the movie. Hopefully the quality will turn out fine. Before I wasn't using the wizard, and I'm not sure what I was doing, but I was obviously doing something wrong

Thanks for the help though.

youll find instructions for tmpgenc at vcd galaxy.com for the dvdrip combo pack or just use the wizard its easier

one problem i had was mpeg with no sound due to compressed audio so i decompressed it with decompress wich comes with avi2vcd then encoded it with tmpgenc it took 3 hrs on athlon1700+ 512meg sdram
