Yes, not only did you get the chance to help me this morning by looking at the Barclays Online Banking site, but I'm in need of help.
Seeing as the most intelligent stuff on the forums, or at least interesting, is found here, I figured why not ask here rather than FOG chat.
Right, I've used a digital camcorder to transfer several movie clips to my hard drive, they;re in .AVI format. Each is about 600mb so the old hard drive is filling up fast. Having a CD Writer I decided to make them into VCDs and store them that way. Downloaded AVI2VCD, converted it, used another program to burn it to make it VCD compliant.
All was going well, I went downstairs to the DVD player, popped the new disc in, the picture came on...and the sound was at first stuttery and then broke up, and then the disc stopped.
Anyone know of a program, or set of programs, that 100% will, with a .AVI file, let me make it into a VCD....my failed CD-R discs are reaching double figures already with attempts.

Thanks unknown kernel, despite using google e.t.c nothing mentioned that TMPEG thing, downloaded it and used the vcdhelp website and I reckon I've got a disc that works now :)

The best program to use for your conversion is TMPGENC: www.tmpgenc.net And there is a bunch of step-by-step guides at the appropriately named www.vcdhelp.com
So, yes, we ARE all so clever in here. Or at least we downloaded the entire first series of 24 after we got broadband.

There is a DIV X site that gives you a step by step guide to do it. Will try find it for you.
Don't think there is a program that does it for you hassle free sadly.

Maybe you should use CD-RW so you wont waste anymore. When you figure it out, make the switch back.
Have you asked in the PC forum?
Not been in there for a bit, but everyone seems to know their stuff...

Yup, and google, and Zdnet, I've got fair few but nothing seems to do it all in one go ! It's like you need four programs with most of what I have so far, wondered if anyone else had tried this before ?

I don't know any, but have you tried an advanced search on download.com, using some key words that may help narrow down the search to something more specific?
