I have some mpg files that I have downloaded and wish to make a VCD of them to play on my standalone DVD player. Movie Factory tells me they are not in specified format and I cannot seem to figure out how to convert them using the toolbox or whatever. When I add an mpg file, the program keeps telling me it is only about 50 seconds long but it really is about 15 minutes. It's like it's stuck on the first -scene- or something. How can I re-encode the whole file? I have tried and tried and probably am missing something very obvious. I would like to use the program for everything (if I can) rather than jump around between different programs. I also have access to Video Studio 6 and DVD Workshop if that would help. TIA for your help......Bill
