Can't get Nero to burn without re-encoding.

[dstrege8]

I trying to use the 'trick' of getting SVCD coded as VCD with TMPGEnc and then burning to CD with Nero.

Is there a way to burn with Nero 5.5 without having it re-encode? I've tried it a number of times with various files I've encoded via TMPGEnc to VCD/SVCD std.s, but Nero always re-encodes before it will "Write CD".

I've also read that Nero encoding it not the best. Then how do you burn without Nero encoding kicking in? Of course it reads the 'trick' file as not being VCD std, and there goes the 'trick'.

Thanks for the help.

It is trying to reencode, because it is a non compliant mpeg file. When you try to burn you should get an error message saying that it is a non compliant file with 3 options.

Cancel
Re-encode
Ignore this warning and burn anyway.

Or something along those lines

You choose the third option.

Hi there,

I also had the same problem, I have now relegated Nero to MP3's only.
I encode with TMPGenc and burn with VCDEasy (please look at the tool links over there
<-----------------

i think VCDEasy does a much better job than Nero. Just my thoughts but it saved me a couple of hours encoding time on each VCD I try to burn !!

Thanks for the responses.

Craigtucker, it didn't give me those exact options, but I did go in and reset the 'compliant' settings in preferences and that gave me an option to burn anyway, which I used.

Thanks to your help, it worked! The first one (SVCD/VCD) I've been able to burn after burning dozens of DVD's over the past many months.

Appreciate everyone's help.
