Mpeg with wrong fps for VCD

[The_Max]

I was wondering how I might convert an Mpeg with a bad frame rate to an Mpeg with the desired one... It seems to be one of the only things every coverter out there CAN'T do. Thanks for any help.

What exactly is the bitrate of this bad MPEG?
Most MPEG's are either 23.97,24,25,29.97 or 30 FPS
Most of these are valid for VCD 24 and 30 are techniclly not valid, most most encoders and burners usualy work

And short of re-encoding the video you usually can't change the FPS speed

The fps is 60 very odd for a .Mpg and for some damn reason I can't find anything anywhere that can re-encode an mpg to an mpg with a different frame rate. And turning it into an AVI and back seems like a monsterous waste of time.

Its like the file was made that way for interlacing or something?

Well, you can field double up to 60fps with a VirtualDub filter so I spose it could be done else where as well, but I thought you would really have to work at creating a 60fps video and even then why?
where did you get this video from?

[The_Max]

Well it was a cap a friend made for me, an mpg, and I too asked him why the hell it was 60fps. Still no answer.

What I did was convert it to an avi with high quality... then back again to an mpg using TMPGEnc. I haven't got a disc now to test it but its frame rate is right now... and it loads into Nero with giving me the usual errors, still took a bloody long time.

He probably did that to get all the fields, there's a telecide filter for virtual dub that I think will delete extra frames, and TMPGEnc has an internal framerate type thingy under the MPEG encoder Settings>Video>Framerate options (just put in 60/2) that would sort it

[The_Max]

Well, considering it won't even load in TMPGEnc I think thats not going to work. It gets that Floating point error. I am trying to go from 60 back to at least else I am pretty sure that is why it won't play as a VCD.
