  1. I have downloaded and burnt with NERO 5.5.10.0 the SVCD PAL sample disk image from this site and it works fine on my Warfedale 750 DVD player on both CDRW and CDR disks. The picture and sound quality are both excellent.

    Now, however hard I try, I cannot get my own DV movies encoded to PAL SVCD MPEG2 with TMPenc and burnt to SVCD to play properly on the same player. The picture breaks up into small blocks and sound stutters all the way through the movie. In TMPEG I have tried using the header trick and 2 pass VBR, I have also tried the Adobe encoder in premiere all with the same results.

    Is there something different about the SVCD sample disk that I am missing, does anyone know it's settings? Are Nero's defaults for burning causing a problem?

    please help this is driving me nuts (but getting me fit with all the running up and down the stairs to try my efforts in the DVD player!)

    Have you tried authoring in VCDEasy instead of Nero? You can still burn the bin/cue in Nero, and actually I'd recommend it over burning within VCDEasy since you already have Nero.

    Are you using the standard SVCD template in tmpgenc or something else? Does the encoded MPEG file look fine on the computer, or is it still blocky?

  3. I had the same issue. Downloaded the sample file and burned it with Nero. Played fine on all of my DVD players. Tried creating my own SVCD/CVD's and could not get them to play.

    Ended up trying VCDEasy and bingo...they started to work. I haven't had time to investigate why, but I really am in no hurry since it does work in VCDEasy. My guess is that I need to upgrade Nero and/or Nero doesn't like my CDR burner.

    Give VCDEasy a try and report back.

  4. You guys are absolute stars! First attempt with VCDeasy and it worked!

    NERO has gone well down in my estimation, It's production of SVCD's is clearly flawed. I was using the latest version. Cheers Ahead, I wasted a whole day pi$$ing about thanks to you!
