90min movie on 1 cd

[ssjdominic]

Im trying to fit a 90 min movie on one cd but having no success ive tried all the diffrent KVCD templates and that all play jerkey like every 2min or so the movie plays jerky for about 15 seconds and i cant think of what to do to fit this movie on one cd any help appreciated

you can just make a vcd with a a little bit lower bitrate than 1150 kbs. kvcd always works for me.

Don't discount using standard VCD encoding but using 90min discs!

VCDhelp has a guide using TMPEGnc to encode avi to VCD. u can change bitrate to squeeze on to 1 cd, if the movies not to long quality will still be good, ive used it to burn at least 50 i cd disc. lately though for some reason the mpegs are to long,dont know why using latest version

apparently the latest version of TMPGenc has a bug in it, thats why your mpegs are ending up larger :P

Yeah, a 90-min or larger-volume disc would answer without making the quality worse,
but it might not work on some dvd players...

90 min discs themselves are reasonably well supported (though not universal). Anything more than 90 minutes and the compatibility starts dropping off quickly.

My pioneer 636 will read the discs no problem, but only upto 88mins. After that the video just gets stuck in a loop.

Yeah, VCD non-standard multiplexing has gone wrong in TMPGEnc 2.59, so I'm glad I've got a couple spare older copies around to use (now, to find one earlier than where the CG/animation matrix bug set in...)

As for it stuttering and going all jerky from time to time, it's likely a dvd player incompatibility thing i'm afraid. I've several vbr discs that play fine on mine but go completely haywire on a friend's machine. Some won't like bitrates above VCD standard (1x reading) or SVCD (2x, mine) and so when that occurs with VBR it'll be problematic. Some even appear to have problems with bitrates anything more than a few percent *below* the standard too (like my friend's machine). Annoying, but of course anything getting more than 80 minutes VCD on an 80 minute disc is completely non-standard and totally up to the manufacturer as to whether they include this completely extra service or not
