AVI TO MPEG NIGHTMARE WITH NERO

[videoman772]

downloaded 100 file movie gangs of ny 2cds i knew that 2cds was not the full movie as it seems like 3cds on a bin file and as i expected it turned out as an avi file dvd screener. when i changed over to mpeg with TMPGE it took 12hrs. again something was wrong 12hrs? after it converted i tried burning it to a svcd with nero everything went wrong got an error message that wav was not in sync pixels in video was something like 525X 256 i thing its supposed to be 480x480 to run correctly. anyway is there any hope? can i change pixels? if anyone can help me can you give me a step by step on how i can get this movie im not that TMPge literate so you have to go slow with me PLEASE HELP!

100 mg file? too small for any good quality anyway,

if you try to download the xvid screener, itll be around
1400 mgs at 2 different files, part one/two...

Propperly it's in 16:9 screen-resolution. 480x480 is the one for SVCD (if 16:9, then with black borders).
Tell the mpg-encoder to auto add the borders, so the picture becomes svcd-compliant. TMPGenc does do this automaticly usually.

For best quality, convert at the highest possible bitrate and split. Easiest way would be to convert each avi into two disks of SVCD meaning a 4 disk movie. As the movie is nearly 3 hours its probably worth it.
