VCD COPYING

[X-Ragnarok]

Hey ppl I had to copy a VCD but only have 1 drive so I used video wave III to convet from .dat to .mpg. I then tried to burn the VCD with Easy CD Creator 5 Platnum's VCD CREATOR but i keep getting an eror message the says to put in a CD-R with enoght free space. The original VCD was a 700 MB cd and so is the one I am trying to burn on what should I do? (this is for TV playback not PC playback)

Why don't you just make an image file of the CD then from the image file burn to disk. No need to conver .dat to MPG.

Use iether discjuggler or cdrwin to make an image file of the cd on your hardrive ,discjuggler is the better of the two for making images of vcd`s.

You might be getting the error as u r not actually storing the file u created as a vcd on the new cd but instead as data.
A program like nero burn will actually do the conversion for you if you want to make your own vcd from scratch ,you just drag and drog the mpg or dat file into nero and it does the rest, when u mastered it you can even add your own tiltle screen and menues.
