i've been messing with putting a few vcds on dvdr recently and while doing it i found a better way for me to create vcd's i rip the dvd to hdd using smart ripper or dvd decrypt and merge the files so i end up with 1 big vob file the use tmpgenc 2.54 and open up the vob by selecting all file types in the list at the bottom.it finds the vob and then i just tell it to use the vcd profile for ntsc or pal,the results are better than dvdx which was good enough.for the vcd to dvdr i found a template called schizons no1.mfc which make a vcd sized mpeg2 with 48k audio which is needed for dvdr build.
