Entree Rep: 0 Joined: 11 Feb 2006 Posts: 9 OFFLINE | last night, I downloaded my first movie. I can play it on the computer just fine, but I want to watch it on my bigger tv.
It is an Mpeg movie file. I trien a straight burn to a dvd-r disk, worked fine on computer, but was not recognised by my dvd player. So i was adviced to convert to from KVCD-Dvd with Cucusoft Vidio Converter. I installed the trail version.
When i tried on the computer, there was no sound at all. when i tried it on the dvd player, it was recognised, but crashed about 3 seconds later.
What am I doing wrong? Can anyone walk me through it?
thx

I think I have hit a big problem. Like I said, I used Cucusoft Vidio Converter to covert one movie to Dvd file. Now, for some reason, I can not play any AVI file movies. I can play BIN and Mpeg files tho. The movie I converted didnt work as I said, but the original still does. whats goin on?
If you can help, I would appreciate it.
thx 
EDIT: ok, I just tried an AVI file movies again. when i tried to play with Windows Media Player, Media Player Classic or Real Player (which I have always used), BUT, they will work with VLC Media Player.
This is very odd

Beastlee Guest | silverdragon, what program are you tring to use to burn the movie with? Cucusoft AVItoMPG is not that good. Better programs to use are Tsunami MPG DVD Easypack or TMPGEnc for a good quality conversion or for a fast conversion you would want to use WinAVIVideoConverter or ImTOO MPEG Encoder. These are all programs I have used along with several others and in my opinion are the best. Also, I wanted to know if the movies you are downloading are in an image file format of a VCD disk? If so you should use VCDgear or VCDeasy to extract the mpg file before converting. Just let me know. I burn about 5 to 6 movies a week and they are all great quality and work in all DVD players.

you will have to forgive me, for I am new to downloading and burning movies.
I used this to convert and burn:
http://www.allformp3.com/vcd-to-dvd.html
The movie I was burning was SAW: Saw.2004.DVDRip-WivX.KvcdKing.mpg.
I have BIN, AVI and MPeg file movies I would like to burn to DVD-r/CD-r so I can watch on a standalone dvd player. And I have no idea what files the player will play which is why I was converting to dvd.
As for the file formats, here is a list of the movies I have downloaded except for SAW:
Sahara.DvDRIP-XViD-WY
Stealth 2005 DVDRip kvcd Jamgood(TUS Release)
Wedding Crashers 2005 Unrated DVDRip KVCD by Hockney(TUS Release)
Doom.UNRATED.2005.DVDRip.XviD-LMG.CD1.avi
Blade Trinity XviD MP3 DVD-Rip.avi
I have watched a couple on the computer, but its not the same as a tv.
If you can help, i would be greatful. If you need anymore info, let me know. I could even give u my MSN if that would be quicker.
Thx

Beastlee Guest | I think you should try this program call NeoDVD from here http://www.mediostream.com/ . It is a great and simple program to use. Just add your movies with the button. It will process all video formats. The bin files you have are cd/dvd image files and you will have to extract the video file or mpg from the image file or bin file before you can use them. Use VCDgear from here http://www.vcdgear.com/download.html to do so. Just one question for you, when you converted the movie did it also burn it or did you end up with a video_ts folder and then you durned that?

Entree Rep: 0Joined: 11 Feb 2006 Posts: 9 OFFLINE | when I used that converter it gave me the option to Convert & Burn. So I did. Odd tho, when I checked later there were some Vidio files, but no Audio files.
I will download the programs you suggested in the morning, getting a bit late here, hehe
I will post the results later tomorrow.
Wish me luck
Thx

Entree Rep: 0Joined: 11 Feb 2006 Posts: 9 OFFLINE | I have downloaded and installed NeoDVD 7, NeoDVD Backup and VCDgear355.
I tried Neodvd backup, but it asks for the Video_TS folder. When I download a movie, all I get is the actual movie, no other files.
EDIT: ok, I did a lot of reading and, I may be wrong, but what I need to do is this:
Example:
I have an avi movie I want to burn to cd in order to play on my standalone dvd player. To do so I must convert the avi to dvd, which should give me a Vidio_TS Folder and I think an Audio_TS Folder too.
When Converted, I use NeoDVD Backup to Burn the Video_TS folder to a cd-r or dvd-r dick. Not sure about Audio...maybe that will be added automatically.
I am determind to do this. I go away on Thursday, so I have 1 and a half days to do this starting tomorrow.
If anyone can tell me if what I said is correct, I would appreciate it, otherwise...trial and error will be the only other way
