    Okay my standalone dvd player doesnt like svcd movies unless you put the header trick on. and my brothers dvd player is the same.
    so i made some svcd's with the trick on it. The movie also has the 3:2 pulldown on playback.
    On my dvd player it plays wonderful and looks great.
    My brothers player plays it but its shaky like the 3:2 pulldown is missing.

    could the shakiness be caused because the file has a mpeg1 header on it and a 3:2 pulldown header on it and that his player simply isnt detecting the 2nd header (3:2) and my player is reading both so its fine?

    If anyone knows anything about this let me know.

    You may be able to help us all out here by posting a new topic based on the make and model of the DVD player that is haveing the touble. It's hard enough to figure out how a DVD player will react to a completly non-standard formatted stream, let alone one we don't even know the make and model of.

    Okay the dvd player that plays these discs i created just fine is a Toshiba sd-3750

    The dvd player having trouble is a Mintek 1600.

    Im just wondering if
    1) is the 3:2 pulldown on playback just a header on the file?
    2) is it possible that since there are 2 headers on the disc (mpeg1 & 3:2 headers) that the Mintek player cant recognize it correctly?

    sorry for the impatience earlier. I dont want to be the hated guy in the forum.

    A quick search would have revealed that the Mintek 1600 does not SUPPORT 3:2 pulldoes on cd media ( VCD, SVCD, CVD ). This has been discussed within the past week.

    You can use the 3:2 pulldown filter under advanced and encode at 29.97, but it will reduce the quality of the output.

    okay sorry

    but do you know (out of my curiosity) is the 3:2 pulldown on playback just a file header? or part of encoding throughout the movie?
    and if i encode a whole movie (w/ 3:2 ) and then split it will the 2nd part play the same as the first?

    3:2 pulldown is part of the mpeg-2 video stream.
