    Creating VCDs

    Does anybody have a really simple program to create VCDs from *.avi files? I don't want to have to download Premier and do all that shiz.

    Can't Nero do stuff like that?

        Yes, but VCDs have to be in *.mpg format which is much less compressed than *.avi files. Thus when Nero goes to convert a 600 meg *avi into an mpg so it can burn it to a VCD the file suddenly becomes over a gig and thus too large to burn to a regular 700mb cd-r.

        So I guess what I'm basically looking for is a program to convert AVIs to MPGs and chop them into 650mb pieces.

              This is what I've found thus far:

              Download Boilsoft Video Splitter, AVI Splitter, MPEG Splitter, AVI Cutter latest version for free to help you split, cut or trim a large AVI, MPEG, ASF or WMV file to smaller video clips on Windows.


              I'm in the process of using it now

                  It'll split AVIs just fine.

                      *.avi video files? I was assuming that you knew what it meant because you indicated above that you also wished to know about the problem I was having.

                          Oh, just use Nero. It'll convert the .avi's into .mpgs (which is what vcds are) and then burn them for you.

                            Get Canopus ProCoder 2.0. It converts almost any video format to any other. Easy to use, prettty fast and works great. I use it to convert the .mov files from my camera to wmv for the web.

                              you guys should be making SVCDs anyway, at the least.
