when using nero to burn vcd, the picture comes out too bright. it looks like everything has a glare on it. The mpgs look near perfect before burning, but just don't look good when done. is this correctable? do other burning programs have similar results on vcd?
thanks for help

I am new to Video editing, and just did my very first VCD and I quite agreed with what you have encountered. I used Nero to burn my final work and the production is not as good as I expected. Similiar glare and fragmentations. I have stopped burning my next VCD and looking for solutions to this problems

if you figure it out please let me know. i've tried multiple settings when encoding to mpg such as "simple color correction" and several other options in tmpg enc but they all turn out exactly the same when using nero. i've also tried vcd easy which produces the same results.
anyone else have this problem or know a free burn software that produces clearer picture than nero? please help

Burning application doesn't do _anything_ to the video -- only thing when Nero might does something to the video is when it prompts you "Your video file is not in correct format, want to encode it?" or something like that. And if that question pops up, you have seriously **cked up something in the backup process of your DVD.

i've never received the "video not in correct format" message. i converted avi's to mpgs. the mgps look great in windows media player, which is why this problem confuses me so. but when i use nero or vcd easy to burn, the picture looks too bright and glarey. i even switched the picture settings on my dvd player around but to no avail. i've burn as fast as 4x and as slow as 1x but that makes no difference either. do you have any idea what might be causing this? or better yet, know any freeware burning software that is superior to nero or vcd easy, supposing that poor quality burn software is my problem?

I've tried various setting as well, like obegeruch. Still no luck.
I am using MediaStudio Pro 6.0 for my editing. In fact you can create mpeg files here but burning with Nero prompts the same meassage that the file requires encoding.

One other problem is that creating an mpeg file with Mediastudio Pro after editing also produces poor qualilty (blockiness). But when creating an avi file the quality is fine. Then when you encode it into a mpeg file before burning with Nero, produces the same poor quality again.

I am at the verge of giving up video editing and movie making. It is frustrating and taking up so much of my time with no end result. I desparately need help.

Like dRD said, the burning software usually don't modify the VCD... It sounds like a typical trouble with multiplexing program or some kind of video-processing soft... describe more about your process for making VCD, and there will be the mistake!

Please do this:

After you've burned your MPEG-1 to VCD, put the CD into your CD-ROM drive and open the .DAT file from the CD using your favourite PC media player and see if the picture is different than the one you had in original MPEG-1 file.

If it is NOT, then your problem is simply in your TV settings, nothing more.

dRD,

It same (blockiness)appeared even when the VCD was played on the PC.

I will give some account of what I have done so far.
Fristly, I did my editing with Mediastudio pro 6.0. After that I created my work as avi file with Mediastudio. The result was good when I played it on the PC. I then tried burning it with Nero. With Nero, the meassage appeared requesting me to encode first to mpeg as the avi format is not complementry for VCD and burn. I did exactly that the result was blockiness intermittently.

Secondly, after completing my editing I created mpeg file with Mediastudio (VCD complementry as indicated by Mediastudio). But the result was bad, the blockiness was even worst. Nevertheless I still tried burning it with Nero, it requested me it re-encode again before burning. I did that and the same poor quality again.

I then tried various setting with Mediastudio Pro 6.0 and created many files in both avi and mpeg. What I noticed was the avi files created were all good quality with many different settings when played on PC but non of the mpeg files that I created with various setting were of acceptable quality.
Please help

Encoders have quality differences and therefor we always recommend that you take your original file -- best possible quality what you have, if speaking of DVD rips, the DVD itself -- and encode that directly to MPEG-1 with TMPGEnc.
