    Hi

    I have been trying to convert an AVI movie to a VCD to burn to CDR.

    I have been trying to use FFMPEGX and following the instructions on the ffmpegx website.

    However I only end up with 2nr mpg files in the folder, and never have the .img files that the instructions say I need to burn to CDR!

    I have the latest ffmpegx and the movie is a DVDrip AVI. I have searched for guides but have not managed to find anything.

    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Thanks

    The (K)VCD preset should make .bin/.cue images, not .img files. The .img files should be created when authoring to SVCD.

    What do you mean with 'nr' in "2nr mpg files"?

    Does the AVI play well in QuickTime Player? You'll need to make a choice based on this answer. Because ffmpegX can, but doesn't have to, decode your source file (AVI) using QuickTime, which only works well if QuickTime Player handles it well.

    What is the framerate of your source file? (23.976/25/29.97 fps) If it is 23.976 (NTSC Film) then you'll need to set a special setting.

    What is the aspect ratio of your AVI? VCD/SVCD only supports 4:3, so you'll have to instruct ffmpegX to letterbox if the AVI is anything else.
