Convert VCD to DVD

[Alanoll]

how can you do this with CCE?

the files i'm dealing with, Scenarist says that there is a GOP overflow as all the frames are in one SEQ.

how can i run these MPEG1 files through CCE?

Make sure you have the latest AVISynth 2.5.x installed and then try this: create an AVISynth script file with Notepad (for example movie.avs) and put in the following line

DirectShowSource("D:\somedir\movie.mpg")
ConvertToYUY2()

Adjust the path, save and try to open the .AVS file in CCE. Should work. Also, depending on the resolution of your video, you may want to resize it to a DVD compliant resolution like 720x480 or 352x480 (NTSC). To do this, add an additional line to the AVS:

BicubicResize(720,480)

well, like i said in my first post, i tried that. Scenarist complained about SEQ headers being to big, hence the reencode situation.

Thanks to RB for the AVS portions. Worked like a charmed...

meh.
i don't really care about the quality.
As it turns out, i used a higher bitrate then the original, so...there wasn't much visible degredation. (Wasn't superb to being with)
