problem with converting mpg video (SVCD) to dvd

[Rud]

ive tried converting a movie into dvd format using VSO divxtodvd (coz its quick and very easy) but the problem im having is that the picture is coming out as a square in the middle of the screen, regardless of what resolution i set it as. does anyone know how to fix this or another simple program that can do it. it only happens with MPG movies.

many thanx

I have the same problem, w/ MPG only. I think it is how the program is set up. My only solution was to use the zoom feature on my standalone or change to WINAVI.

BTW do you have a problem w/ VSO only giving you .VOB's and nothing else as the output??

My only solution was to change programs....

i'll have to try out winavi then.

yeah VSO does just create vob files, nothing else but i dont see that being a problem

well i tried advanced x video converter and that seems to do just nothing.

then i tried winavi and kept getting the same error:
"the video pin can not be connected"

The advanced X is ungodly SSSSLLLLOOOWWW, at least that was my expierence.

What about CUCUsoft AVI to DVD? It will do .MPG, free trial, and lifetime updates? I tried it but my computer is too weak for this to turn out a conversion in a reasonable time.

i got hold of pro versoin 6.02 and for some reason it crashes everytime i open the movie :/
