Chicken Man--Help Please

This has been answered MANY MANY times in the DVD Section and there are lots of ways of doing it. Check that forum out and the Search button can help.
Here is one I found elsewhere that might help. I have not done it this way myself as I find the whole exercise of moving VCD to DVDR just a waste of time personally.
How to burn 5 SVCD/VCD (5x800MB = 4GB) on one DVD-R without reencoding anything *vobs with 44 Hz Audio*:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. Read out all the svcds/vcds to mpeg using VCDGear 3.5
BIN->MPEG | VCD Dat->MPEG
2. Demultiplex all your mpeg using TMPG, so that you extract all the audio & video streams from each mpeg
>Mpeg-Tools->Simple Demultiplex
3. Make a seperate folder for every mpeg CD
like CD1, CD2, CD3 ...
4. now tart IfoEdit->Author NEW DVD
join the two files together cd1.mpv &. cd1.mpa
5. join the chapters like this:
make a file called Celltimes.txt *use wordpad - the contant of the files looks like this (just copy this stuff into the celltimes.txt):
10000
20000
30000
40000
50000
60000
70000
80000
save this file & open it with IfoEdit under Scene changes/chapters.
now just select the destination - for part1 CD1.
(after IfoEdit is done, close it and open it again and proceed to the 2nd mpv/mpa .... and so on and on until you are done with all your svcds/vcds ;o))
6. Now we have as many VOB files as many mpeg files we had before, but now they are already vob files
7. Now make a folder called *guess what * VIDEO_TS
8. Now copy/move every vob file you have created into the
VIDEO_TS folder *but before you do that rename the files
like this*
CD1=vts01_1.vob
CD2=vts01_2.vob
and on and on until you have all your vobs, but be careful IfoEdit only goes from vts01-1.vob -> vts01_9.vob
*personally I can't confirm this as I have never tried more than 7 vobs until now *
9. IfoEdit->Create IFO
selecht the first vob file you have created "vts01_1.vob" all the others will be proceeded automaticly
(close IfoEdit again)
we are almost done now
10. Open IfoEdit & open vts01_0.ifo & now use the button Get VTS !
(close IfoEdit)
11. Open IfoEdit again & this time open the Video_ts.ifo.
You can see now the two film roles (attribute for the film)
klick twice on them and select "Automatic Letterboxed" - don't change anything else !!! Just save it for the last time
A N D Y O U A R E D O N E !!!
12. Burn the files with your favorite burn tool *I have used Nero for burning and it works like a charm with this method ;o))*
Just put the VIDEO_TS path on your DVD und you can leave out the AUDIO_TS *as you don't need it anyway*. Happy burning
Happy SVCD/VCD on DVDR with chapters
& thanks to Icewaere for his great guide in German
