demux/remux trick for SVCD?????

[Crow]

Can someone please help me!!

I was reading the forum on my dvd player (sony ns 300) and someone had figured out a way to trick nero into thinking an mpg svcd was actually a vcd?? I followed the instruction and my disc still came out scrambled when i tried to play it on my dvd?Any suggestions please reply as soon as possible, this is going on 14 hrs and 6 cds' trying to fix my problem

THANK YOU in advance

I read on another recent post about a demux/remux trick?If someone could explain the procedure involved with this?

This is the most important part In TMPGEnc tools with the type set to MPEG-1 VideoCD. then burn with nero as non compliant vcd.

I did that and when i burnt it the picture was all scrambled.

1-tmpgenc

2-mpeg tools

3-simple multiplex

4-my video for the input

5-make sure stays on mpeg 1 vcd-cd

6-run

7-then burn with nero(does it matter what version?)

Is this procedure correcct?

I guess you have a MPEG-2 file, that you want to burn as XVCD.
Demultiplex the MPEG-2 (MPEGtools>simple demux)
Then you have a *.m2v and *.mp2
Multiplex both files but make sure the type is "MPEG-1 Video-CD(non-standard)". Maybe you need to rename *.m2v to *.mpv, I am not sure.
Then burn as non compliant VCD.

The way to trick your player into playing svcd"s is totally easy all you do is encode a svcd the normal way but after you are done encodeing load the svcd file into the "Merge &cut" (some say the multiplexor but this is faster) then choose the "vcd/mpeg1 non-standard" setting from the drop down menu then choose your output directory then click "run" this will put a vcd header on your svcd file so your player will think it is a vcd.

Note* These instructions were sent to me by a poster called Minion who posts on the TMPGenc boards. He knows his stuff, so Chris if you're reading this ..hi
