cant find a giude for kvcd -->dvd format

[goomer]

I have a movie in kvcd format as an image file, put on a cdr an it doesnt work in my home dvd player. I know dvdr discs will play fine but I can't find software that will convert this. Id even be happy to get it in an avi format then it would be easy but the quality might suffer.

Use isobuster to extract the mpeg,then convert to dvd compliant file with an authoring proggy.

KVCD is not a format of any kind. It usually does not work in players. You need to extract the MPEG and convert it to a compliant format of some sort.

Use isobuster to extract the mpeg, load it to virtualdub mpeg 2, add msu_deblocking filter, resize to 352 x 576/480, frameserve to TMPGenc and re-encode to half D1 DVD

There's many variations on KVCDs in terms of different frame size as well as the mandatory non-standard GOP length (which is what makes KDVDs non-compliant DVDs, irregardless of what Kwag says). You definitely need to extract the MPEG out of the image first, then I would suggest loading the file into GSpot (the latest Beta V2.52) so you get a snapshot of exactly what it is that you have. You need to get it to a DVD-compliant state, which will more than likely require a re-encode.
