Angry Fire VCD - there is sound but picture is black

hi,

i'm trying to burn some vcds, but when i burn them there is perfect sound but the picture is black. I dont really think that it could be a codec problem as i can view these clips perfectly normally when i play them on my pc before i try to burn them.

anyone got any ideas on what the problem could be?

thanks,
colly

Try using VCD Easy 1.15 to burn the CD. I could never get Roxio or Nero to work.

This version is free. The site is Germany. The download is for the English version.

hmmmm

hi,

ok i've downloaded the easyVCD program you put the link up for, but it only burns mpg. how do i first convert the avi file to mpg. what is the best/easiest program to use, oh it'd be great if there was a free program to download to allow me to do the conversion!

thanks,
colly

This is TMPGEnc, which I use after seperating the files... Also, if the movie clips were in divx format, you will need to uncompress the sound as well
