first copy all *.dat files from 3 cds to your hdd and then convert them using total video converter or any other software.... then merge the vob file using video splitter software and while burning thru nero select an option to make Video DVD or similar to that.

which video splitter software ???????

[Tapomay]

First you have extract (convert) .dat files from the VCDs to your harddisc as .mpg files. You can use a freeware called 'VCDGear' for this. Then use any DVD authoring software (such as nero) to make your DVD using those mpeg files.

[navjotjsingh]

It depends mainly on your computer configuration...variation of quality in 3 files and your patience too.

Somebody told me that if i use nero for this purpose it ll expand single vcd file to fit on entire DVD

[club_pranay]

you can also try using ulead! i for ver 11 free with my laptop, picture quality is nice! amazing set of menus!!

[CadCrazy]

But i think the trial version will leave watermark

Any free or opensource application plz ??????????????

But the bitrate of VCD and DVD has difference, and I am actually converting a low quality video(low bitrate VCD 1411Kbps) to a High quality DVD quality video,
So my question is can you control the bitrates and still play the DVD on DVD player....

Till Now my best bet is to write movies in Divx format thus 7 movies on a single layer DVD(I knw that's awesome!). But I want DVD's That can be played on a DVD player(not Divx compatible).

[dabster]

I want DVD's That can be played on a DVD player which is not Divx compatible. Any answers to this....? How many movies i can write on DVD then...?
