MPEG1/VCD RIP GUIDE

"Well, congratulations on all your success. Here's your welfare check."

5. Nero Burning ROM (burn babie burn!)

LATEST Nero always!

As soon as the program starts, click on "Close Wizard" and from the left Column, select VideoCD.

In the VideoCD TAB "Create standard..." should be checked.

In the File Options TAB Settings should be:
  • ISO LEVEL 1
  • ISO9660 for Character Set
  • Both Relax ISO Restictions checked
  • *ANY OTHER OPTIONS SHOULD BE GRAYED OUT, OTHERWISE YOUR NERO IS TOO OLD*

In the Volume Descriptor TAB, choose a title. Do not put anything else into the other text boxes.

In the Dates TAB, select "Use Date And Time from Original File"

In the Burn TAB, Only "Write" should be checked, I also suggest you burn at a MAX of 4x, burning any faster may make your CD not work in a standalone dvd player.

Last note: DISC AT ONCE SHOULD NOT BE USED!!

Click OK on the right top corner of the window. Now, find the proper .mpg file you want to burn and drag it from the Files Window to the Compilation window UNDER the track listing!

IMPORTANT! The SIZE of the mpeg file DOES NOT MATTER...it's the LENGTH of the mpeg that cannot go over 74 mins or 80mins or however long your CD is in order to fit properly!

If Nero complains after checking the VCD you have done something wrong while making your movie.

If everything is ok and you get no error prompts, go to File -> Write CD and click on BURN on the top right corner.


Congrats!!!...You're done. Now you can watch beautiful mpeg quality in a standalone DVD/VCD player or your PC at home.
