File adding Error message "& and comma"names n

[spinningtop]

hello
Hope someone there can help
I have created home videos mpg2 from MGI video software and tried to burn a SVCD on Nero (could not because of error message . don;t have the mpg2 plugin codec)
I have dowloaded VCD easy and cannot add any files at all, when I try I get an error message like " cannot add files names with commas and &, not authorised" but my files have names like "scotland.mpg" and are in a folder on my desktop !!!
If someone could help that would be greatly appreciated !
Regards
Fred

But the full path to the files on your desktop is something like:

c:\Documents and settings\myusername\desktop\filename.ext

maybe your username has some characters that VCDEasy doesnt like (an mybe not just , and &, perhaps spaces?). Try copying the files to the root of your drive (c:\) or to another folder with no spaces or other odd chars in the name and see if that helps.

Thanks for the reply I will try to copy into a folder on the C drive
