I really think you should read thru the how-to guides. In any case those directories are supposed to be there. Inside the MPEGAV folder you'll find the AVSEQ.dat file which is where the MPEG file is written to.

Thanks for the info. But I cant find a how - to - guide explaning these direcotries on Nero.com or anywhere else.

The VCD says written succesfully but doesnt play.

Please help this ignorant newbie.

As to the playback problems check in the DVD Players compatabilty & user comments section of the forum listed on the left hand side of the page to see if your player is listed.
