I've searched the forums, and couldn't find any other listings that helped, so please forgive me if this has been answered before!

A little background:
I have a movie that spans 4 SVCDs. My DVD player will not support SVCD, so I burned them using the VCD header trick.

I was given a DVD burner for Christmas, and would like to now have all 4 discs on a single DVD. I checked out the link for fitting multiple VCDs and SVCDs on a single DVD (https://www.videohelp.com/vcddvdr and https://www.videohelp.com/svcddvdr) and began following the user guides.

The problem I'm having is demultiplexing the mpeg. I've extracted the mpeg from the dat on the vcd (remember, it was an svcd burned with the header trick) using vcdgear. The result was a 786 MB mpeg-2 file that plays perfectly.

Now, when I try to demultiplex the file using TMPGEnc, it gets about 60% complete on the video splitting, then skips to the audio. The two resulting files are a 500 MB m2v file and a 70 MB mp2 file. The mp2 file plays just fine, so the problem is obviously with the video file. A 500MB m2v is quite clearly too small for a video extracted from a 786 MB mpeg.

I've tried using MPEG-Corrector to fix any bad chunks, but the resulting file produces an "Illegal video stream" error in TMPGEnc.

If anyone could help with this, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! I'm getting very frustrated with this!

Thanks a ton!
