Copying My VCD.

[AmeliaK]

I have never had this problem before, but I tried to copy a VCD (Home Video Footage) and Nero thinks it will not fit on the 650MB blank. The original is also on a 650MB blank. Now here is where it becomes interesting. When I look at the properties of the CD through Windows, windows thinks its 2.2GIGS in size and it isn't.

Does anyone now what the problem is ? and if so how do I copy it ?

Try copying the DAT file to your hard disk and then run the file thru VCD Gear (convert the DAT to MPEG). It might fix the MPEG file.

I am trying to copy the Dat file over right now. I noticed that if you look at the CD Info under Nero, it thinks its about 800MB, which is OK and if you look at the content of the CD, this all appears to add up, but if you look at the Properties in Windows Explorer, it thinks its 2.2GIGs in size ??

Sorry Sorry Sorry. . . .

I played the VCD and then realized it was 1:17min in length. Had a look at the CD it was on and it was an 80Min CDR . . woops

In any case it is coping over fine.

Sorry for the Posting !
