Try to convert it to VCD or SVCD Format with TMpeg.

So you just have to copy the file before the movie file when you burn your VCD´s with Nero ( or something else).

Well i get the same error on svcd as the origional file... i dont get the error on vcd, but i want to put it on the svcd and the divx i have

im confused

basiclly all i want to do is have a little picture in the beginin that says what the file is and that i made it

You want a start or intro video clip, not a logo on the video. Make it in an editor and burn it with the video or you can use a program like TMPGenc to join the clips together. Make sure your intro clip making program makes it at the same size & frame rate as the movie that will follow.

If you don't want to use an editor or title program you can make a bitmap image and then use TMPGenc to make it run for say 10 seconds into an MPEG. Or you can use Windows Movie Maker to make an AVI from BMP then encode to whatever you want like an MPEG.

I use Ulead Video Studio 6 for this kind of small clip. You can show a still image or an animation and add sound and have it play for any length of time. Then, as someone else said, you can just add this file ( I have Ulead output it as an mpg1) ahead of the main video. This is easy to do in VCDEasy which I use.

ok ive figured out how to do it with a svcd( i make a clip using adobe premere, then convert to svcd and merge it with the file... now im trying on a divx... apparentlly with nandub (which is a rip of virtual dub i believe) i can use the filter plugin. but is there a way to export it with the logo without reencoding it???
