Hi all,

I really want to how many vcd can i fit into 1 dvd-r???
Since vcd had the max of 700MB....is that mean i can put 6 vcd into 1 dvd-r (700 x 6 = 4200).

If that was correct what is the best program or the easier program i can use to rip the vcd into the HD and then write in onto the dvd-5????

Cheers :)

To upload the VCD (mpeg 1) files to your HD go to the drive the disc is in in 'my computer' and double click to open the page. Then highlight the file and then click on 'copy files' and select the folder the files will go to. In order to put these movies on to one DVD you must use a DVD authoring tool such as Sonic 'My DVD'.

I think the question is that CAN I put 6 VCDs into one DVD disc and regular DVD player can still play DVD disc as VCD format. This way I don't have to carry 18 VCDs, instead 3 DVDs contain them all.

I haven't seen a tool allows me to do that. If you tried to burn a VCD, all applications that I know will ask you to put no more than 80 mins (700MB), even I put a DVD disc in my burner. If tried to burn DVD, it ask you to put DVD format's movie, not VCD format.

I love some serials that come with 40 VCDs (each is about 50 mins which is about 500MB bytes). I hope I can copy them into DVD discs. So I just need 5 DVD discs to have them all, not 40 CD discs.

Can anyone light me up?

Thanks

You can put several mpeg 1 or 2 movies onto one DVD-R but, as I say, you need a DVD authoring programme such as Sonic. Of course if you will be watching these videos on your PC only then all you need to do is to create a DVD-ROM for data disc and drag and drop each file and burn.
