Question about chapters on a VCD

[czTempe]

Okay, I have a question...when I have a group of MPGs that a VCD compliant (41 to be exact, hitting about 76 minutes), and I want to make it one long track as opposed to 41 seperate tracks, so that PC users can just have one file to load instead of 41 different clips.

What software can I use to make this possible? I tried TMPGenc and the audio got out of sync, and I tried Premiere, but it did not want to take the MPG audio stream (for some odd reason, that never happened before).

Can anyone help me?

Did you try the Merge option in MPEG tools in TMPGEnc????

[czTempe]

Yeah, it put everything out of sync.

vcd cutter always works for me

I downloaded VCD Cutter...where do I go from there?

[mike416]

File-Open Movies (open them all together using the Ctrl key or Shift key to highlighted the files) and right click on the play list window "join clips in play list" and voila,you'll get one big file

Then how do I add Chapters to it? Should I just use VCDEasy?

[mike416]

if you put (drag) 2 MPEG files while burning vcd,you'll get 2 chapters and so on ..........

But if you're thinking about having chapters like dvd in one movie,you should remember that during chapter change,there'll be a slight pause between chapters which quite annoying (to me,it is)

If the next chapter is a different file than it's OK

If you don't want a pause between chapters there's a way to do this,only it needs encoding
