making svcd -- DVDR using DVDIT P.E 2.5

[PATBOY]

i'm trying to use DVDIT P.E 2.5 to make some svcd on a dvd.. I do my menu and stuff the movie is svcd standart 480*480 etc.. when I burn the svcd once im done doing the menu, it says burn succesfully but when I play it on my dvd player I see half of the movie... it is not properlly centered on the tv... it is like the movie is too much on the left so I see half of it... is there a way to fix that???

My dvd player fully support svcd so that isnt the problem...

Hope someone can help..

what is your dvd player?
have you tried the sample I made? www.vcdhelp.com/dvd.htm#sample

Hi, yes your sample work fine, I have a pioneer 343 and dont have problem.... now.. I forgot to mention that I dont want to re-encode the video so it become dvd compliant.. I want to leave it 480*480... is that possible with dvdit P.E 2.5 it seem so far, I was able to burn a svcd on a dvd but only problem like I said that when the movie play, it is way to far to the left... so I see half of it.. the menu is working good though....


thanks for your help...

My sample is from a svcd and it is not reencoded but I used spruceup to make it....I havent tried to do it with dvdit yet, maybe it won't work or you did something wrong...did you use dvdpatcher first on the svcd before adding it in dvdit? and then changed back the settings with dvdpatcher?

[PATBOY]

yah I did apply dvd patcher but it seem dvdit scan the media everytime you open a project so that wont help too much is there anyone out there that have burned some svcd to dvd successfully with DVDIT P.E 2.5 WITHOUT having to re-encode the video...


Thank You
