.avi to .mpg?

[Pyrzi]

How I can convert .avi to .mpg? I want to burn vcd on .avi file. How I can do that?

You could always boot back to 9 and use my old guide

but seriously, if the file can be opened in Quicktime Pro, then simply export it as a Toast Video CD. This requires you to have Toast Titanium installed on your computer.

If you have the full version of Toast installed, it will add a export option to Quicktime called Toast VCD. Just open up your AVI in QT and export it to Toast VCD.

"This movies is too long to fit on a Video CD." What then?=/ it´s 700Mb big and 1 and half hour long...

Yes and what happens when QT can't play the audio?

I was testing a new DVD player and tried to convert an avi cartoon I had on hand... QT plays it 1920's style (silent), and with ffmpegx (granted I'm a newbie at this), the video and sound were horribly out of sync. Any suggestions?

Made me wonder why anyone uses avi if it has to be transcoded... what a pain.

1 and half hour long...

Toast VCDs can only be up at 80min long.
