Hi can any one recomend some good settings to create vcd in version 1.09 build 1. when i create a svcd they play superb on my standalone dvd player, but i cannot get svcd to work on my mates player (the picture is fine but sound is all jumpy) only vcd. the problem is i cannot get dvd2svcd to do a good vcd rip any help would be greatly appreciated.

cheers keep up the hard work it's a brilliant piece of kit that has saved me a load of hassle when making svcd

cheers

get 1.0.9 build 2 to correct the resolution bug for NTSC vcd.
see here for settings for compliant VCD or simply just load the vcdsettings.ini http://www.dvd2svcd.org/vcd

there is no 1 reason why audio jumps on a dvdplayer, but if you do a search on audio related problems i'm sure u'll find the answer, you can also check at vcdhelp.com. I would check his make and model of dvdplayer see if its compatible ect.

I would start just loading the "VCD-Settings.ini" under "Misc." tab "Load settings" - so you can be sure to get a comliant VCD and also make sure to follow the specs mrbass gave you with his link.

Then you should get a VCD that plays correctly.

HTH,

the vcd's play ok and thanks to the settings i were given i've got a decent rip. But it's when playing svcd on the technics player that the sound jumps and stutters

jimbo, I would predict that your mates DVD player cannot handle the high bit rate of the SVCD your trying to play. This problem is not unusual. Try playing lower bit rate SVCD's to determine the upper limit where playback is fine.
