divx (.avi) to vcd using tempgenc doesn't wordk at all!!

[Kelumenati]

I have divx movies and I want to play them on my philips dvd player (plays cdr, cdrw, vcd, etc.) So I searched on the internet how to do this and I found that I had to do this with tempgenc. But it doesn't work!! I use the settings for PAL, I burn the mpg file with nero (no errors) I put the cd in my dvd player, It recognizes the cd as an vcd but there is no video & audio!! And powerdvd doesn't work to with the vcd just like mediaplayer. WHAT TO DO?? I've tried mpegcorrector, mpegprop and nothing works...

After converting theavi file did the original mpeg work before you burned it to cd?

I have used TMPGEnc to convert Divx movie into MPEG-1 for burning VCD (NTSC though) and it works.

I have the same problem. Usually when you convert something on TMPGEnc, you can see the movie in TMPGEnc preview during the encoding. I saw nothing. The resulting file has no video and audio.

Some help please.

I've solved the problem but now I have a problem with audio/video sync on SOME movies. e.a. cd 1 from space cowboys is out of sync but cd 2 is working fine!! how can this be?(btw... both files have perfect audio/video sync when watching them as divx movies on my comp)
Does it have something to do with the beginning of a movie?part 1 starts with a black screen and then all the beginning crap like warner bros etc... and part 2 directly starts with sound... maybe?

thanks anyway

Maybe your DVD player doesn't like space cowboys. I mean... it's retarded. The moon is 1/6 the weight of the earth right? So if you're halfway between the earth and the moon where do you go? Tommy Lee Jones and his Engineering friend would have you believe that gravity is essentially 0 when equally distanced from two objects such as the earth and the moon in this example. That chick even explains it to a group of school children on tour. How uterly ridiculous! I think the exact proportion would be that you need to be 6/7 of the way to the moon before the gravitation forces cancel out but don't quote me on it. That's the kind of thing I'd look into before say... writting into a movie!! Anyway if their theory was true that to launch yourself to the moon you "just have to get halfway there and let gravity do the rest" then if you parachuted out of a plane then you'd just fly back up to the plane since you're less than halfway between the plane and the earth right?

Retarded.
