Hello

I tried to convert an AVI file to DVD from my hard drive, using Cucusoft(PAL).
I am now left with 3 files from the convert operation:
1)***.n2v 2)***.mpa. 3)***.mpg. totalling 3.95gb.
Silly me I have binned the original AVI file and cannot retrieve?
Am I still able to create a DVD from the above converted files please.?

TIA

to make sure:

the n2v is an m2v file, right?

is mpg file alone 3.95 GB or the three files together??

if so, yes, provided the conversion was done right you can either create a dvd using the mpg file (if the authoring programm accepts it) or using the m2v (mpeg2video) and mpa (mpegaudio) files...

you need some dvd authroing program though to create a valid dvd structure...

Combined total is 3.95gb:
m2v=1.78gb
mpa=164mb
mpg=2.01gb.

I have following software:
DVD Decrypter
DVD Shrink
ImgTools
Various conversion software

since you're already using the cucusoft software why don't you take a look at this guide:
