convert form Xvid.AC3 to VCD dat.How??

[bharat_r]

1.I have a DVD rip in Xvid with AC3 dolby format(as avi).I don't have a DVD writer.So I can burn it only as a VCD.

When I burnt it(using Nero) as a VCD & put it in my VCD player,I can see only the video & there is no audio.

I tried converting the file to mpeg(using Advanced X Video Converter).
79 min file took up 1.3 GB & nero says file's to big.

How do I burn it to a VCD(dat) which is playable in my VCD player with Video as well as Audio.


2.I searched the forums for this & found that VCD 2.0 does not support dolby sound is there a next version of VCD like 3.0 which does?

Visit Here and Here and Here ..for all kind of help regarding the query.....

Thanks!I'm processing the video using TMPG.
I'll post back if I find some difficulites.

in the first link:

Use a burning program, such as NERO to burn your CD-R or R/W CD as a VCD (DON'T ask NERO to format the file as a VCD, since you've already accomplished this!)

how to do that????

Download AimONE Video Convertor n convert the file to VCD(PAL) n i guess u have a AC3 decoder installed......

79 minute video will definately fit on a single VCD

thats cos the standard VCD bitrate is 1150kbps n the 1.3GB u got was probably cos the MPEG u encoded was using 2350kbps MPEG

Install ACE codecs Pack(from Some Digit CD..... i think last month's.......) and download Power Video Converter( this is also available in Old Digit CD, I think April 2004, but I dont remember)......... and convert it into a MPEG format........... Then burn with Nero as Usual (hope you know how to burn Video Files, don't you??... you should not directly burn it as a data but you should burn it as a video......)
hope you get it.........

saROMan,

I followed the steps told in the first link u gave(http://forum.digital-digest.com/arch...23203-p-1.html)

In the resulting mpeg file Audio & Video do not syncronize.Video comes first then the audio

I'll try what maverickrohan & khattam_ have said.

use avi2dvd . specify output source as cd . write the image files created 2 ur cd

hope this works out , it generally does 4 most guys

[bharat_r]

no use tried everything but audio is ahed of video by about 30 secs.

[saROMan]

u are trying to convert the Avi file or the MPG file ???

[bharat_r]

tried both

I used TMPGEnc to convert it to mpg, also tried Dr.DivX to convert it to DivX avi...but still Audio & Video are not in phase.

I think the AC3 audio is causing the problem.

[bharat_r]

does it depend on disc space.I have only 3 GB of free space in C drive(in which the tools are installed)

The E drive has 5 GB free space.
Will it make any difference?

dude...........Why dont u try AimONE Video Convertor Like I said b4.............It is very stable n supports VBR Audio too

A 30 second lag in A/V syn can only b caused by VBR Audio........

Try AimONE n then tell me the results.......!!!

I'm downloading it now.Will try it.Thanks!!!
