mpeg2 capturing codec???

[alucard2050]

i am useing a couple of different capturing tools. in MMC7, you can select to capture for a standard VCD. but, what I want to do is capture for a standard SVCD. no encodeing afterwards. is this possible? such as a codec to select from the dropdown list in some capture programs? in this pack under tools "Nimo Codec pack", it has "Mpeg2dec DLL", is this a codec for MPEG2? i use TMPGE for encodeing but i am looking to skip that altogether. capture, burn with NERO5.5, then playback in standalone APEX ad-600 as a SVCD. can it work????

P.S.- i have tried to use the MPEG2 format in MMC7 but the highest resolution is ___x240. need 480x480. the other software i use is VCRiu and i can select the codec and the resolution size. vdub does not work for me, WINME......

Hi, I just wanted to know where I can download a trial or full version of the programs you mentioned above.

MMC7 is for ATI cards. its free at ATI's website. Nero has a demo at their site. Others i mentioned are under TOOLS to the left....

Belmont....I mean alucard2050, immediately drop MMC and get yourself a copy of powervcr 2! I did, and I'm making high-quality svcds instead! If/when you do, you won't go back to MMCrap

Operationz- i would LOVE to be able to make SVCD's. my only problem is i have about 100 coasters of SVCD's that won't play in my APEX dvd player. its supposed to support them but i have run out of ideas on what else to try and no one on here can help. so i gave up. and i have asked MANY times for some ideas but no luck....

Thanks for the info, and where can you buy PowerVCR 2, i had the trial version, and is the best and quickest way for making VCDs/SVCDs/DVDs. Can you buy it online and how much is it, because I haven't seen it in stores in New Zealand.

Thanks

A warning on Powervcr II, the record function will not work with ATI cards with the newest drivers, no responce yet from Cyberlink as to a fix.
