Mpeg Size

I have got a dvd player that plays mpegs great but
does not play vcd or svcd,
If I try to burn just the mpeg off a vcd, I end up with a
file to large to fit onto one cd,:(
The only option I see is to cut the mpeg and burn it on
2 cd's
But as many svcd's come on 3 disks it would mean I would need
6 disks for only 1 movie :confused:
Does anybody have any other Ideas,any would be greatly
appreciated,
 
You must have a very strange DVD Player that can play an MPEG file but not a VCD. What make and model number is it?

Burn to 90 or 99 min CDR's would be your best choice, to be honest, provided your burner can do that.
 
Cheerz chickenman ,I never even thought about 90min
discs.

It's a Naiko N2866 tv/dvd combi and when you try to play
vcd it say's (no vcd support) and spits it back out ,yet it will play cd's and mp3's,
there may well be a hack for it but as yet I can find one.

One more thing it will read the disc(as long as it's not a vcd)and
you play the mpeg from the root folder ,but is there anyway of
burning a vcd leaving out part of files on it so that you can burn the normal 80min on a 700mb disc,
Cause I was thinking if I could fool my dvd player into thinking
it wasn't a vcd, it wouldn't spit it back out
and I could just go to the root folder and play it
 
When a VCD is burnt out its burnt in Mode 2 Type 2 format with little error correction. Where all the error correction stuff goes, they use it to put extra movie on so thats why you can get 800meg onto a so called 700meg CDR. There is really no way around the way a VCD is burnt or normal data burnt.
