Hello:

I know how to convert AVI files into VCD format on a CD-R in Nero and I know how to convert AVI files to DVD format on a DVD-R with Nero Vision
[b]BUT
what I am trying to do is to convert multiple AVI files to VCD-format productions onto 4.7GB DVD-Rs.

I am contending with the following problems:

1.having AVI files that are too large to fit onto a CD (1+GB/avi file)
2.having to wait for the several hours that it takes for each AVI file to convert to VOB / HQ DVD-video format.
3.having a DVD that won't play on my stand alone DVD player (Like when i tried to burn the AVI as data files onto a DVD-r


Any suggestions? Thanks.
P.S. I have Nero, Roxio, DVDshrink, etc

hmmm.. vcd uses mpeg1 which isn't really dvd compliant.

When I had a Movie that was a Vcd, I used Dvd Flick it put it on a Dvd.

Flick works with Multiple Files. I also used Shrink to fit the Movie on Dvd5.

As for time It Takes what it takes.

The DVD-Video format uses MPEG-2 video primarily, but MPEG-1 support is explicitly defined in the standard.

The reviews also help to determine which media gives the best results.

Yes I've done it myself. Just create the vcd mpgs,
and add them to the DVD project. In DVD Flick, you can tell it not
to re-encode, and it should use them as-is.
