I am pretty much an expert in makin VCDs now, but I figured I should go a step up and convert to DVD.
If the same basic stuff is required to burnto DVD, then there is no prob, but here are a few question you can help me with
1) If I use TMPGENc and encode it to DVD NSTC instead of VCD NSTC, thats what I have to do right, thats the only thing that chnges, then after I convert it to DVD NSTC, I would use Moviefactory and do my screen selection, instead of VCD, I pick DVD right. So I get this far all I do is burn it?
2) If I am puting TV Show Eps in the 400MB range, how many can I fit?
3) I have a CD-R Writer Plus, Can it still work if I burn it? To DVD?
thanks

1) Basically, take a look to the left under what is DVDR. The DVD file structure is totally different from x(S)VCD. You need to author your MPEGs before you can burn them. There are a lot of programs to do this.
2) 400MB? Well a normal DVD bitrate tends to be about 7500kbit/s for the video. So that would work out to about 6:45 of videoBut you can lower the bitrate and get more video per disc (check out the bitrate calculators under tools). Basically you've got about 4.3GB of data to play with, depending on bitrate and quaility you want you can fit from 1hr+ per disc
3) No. DVD and CD are different technologies (they just look alike). You can burn DVD data to a CD disk (this is know as miniDVD or cDVD). However as a CDR holds 800MB vs. a DVD which holds 4.7GB, you can only get about 15min of video per CDR.
