possible to create an autorun program on VCD?
Does anyone know if it is possible to create an "autorun" program for the second disk of a two disk vcd that was created with Nero?
Okay, maybe not an autorun as such...How would you make the 2nd vcd to begin playing after the first? I do not have a problem using cd-r's to burn movies onto, I just thought that if the 2nd disk could play upon completion of the 1st vcd disk it might be nice. Thanks ahead of time. |
Law,
what are you playing your vcd's on ? Pc (ie powerdvd, wmplayer, windvd), dvd player (with a 3 or 5 disk carousel), zTr |
I have a toshiba 5 disk dvd. A carasolle, or something like that. It can hold 5 dvd's, cd's, etc.
I have not had a problem recording vcds; but when I use two, it does not forward to the 2nd vcd disk and play. Any ideas??? L |
Hi lawman555,
I have a JVC DVD player (7 disk changer), and it always automatically goes to the next (K)VCD every time the first one finishes. I believe this could be a configuration option on your player :idea: -kwag |
I have a sony 5 disc carouselle and it loads the next disc when it gets to the end of the first- it might just be the player itself instead of the way the disc is burned. Do put in chapter points?

kwag you beat me by a minute again! :lol:

Does the Volume Number and Total Volumes count settings allow multi disc DVD players to recognise that the movie is on more that 1 disc? Mine can only play one disc at a time :( but I always wondered what the purpose of having these options was. Just a thought...

I am not familiar with the "Chapter Points" reference. Is this a setting inside Nero when you create the disks? Does it have to do with setting up a menu.
So far I have only burnt the disk(s) w/o menus or chapters. For what it is worth, thank you all very much. Now if I can figure it out it will be cooooool. Maybe I need to check the nero manual or help files. So far I have not been able to properly communicate with their tech support; but I am still trying. One of their settings for the dual boot menu, IE: nero vs adaptec burning software, was listed on their web site as an FTP site. Well, for whatever reason I cannot view it or download it. Still waiting for their help on that one. (Excuse me while I digress) |
Law,
Chapter Points function the same as chapters or Scenes on a dvd, except they are authored (inserted using vcdeasy, tscv). Nero does a 'menu' if you've got a few different mpg files. It lets you create thumbnails and Jump to a particular file on the vcd. Vcdeasy lets you create and use a Menu as well or just entry points. Entry points are easier to use, if your player supports them they could be used to pseudo-Fast Forward in two or three minute increments; or however long you assign. Have a read at these documents to learn more. Have some Tylenol nearby though..... :lol: :lol: http://www.vcdeasy.org/ http://www.vcdeasy.org/modules.php?n...hivi_MenuStill Zooter |
Zooter;

The files on my VCD
Okay...I have checked my VCDs that were created with Nero and I found no files at all at the root level. If it was set to autorun, wouldn't there be an autorun type of file.??
I have read the info about the menus and chapters; but haven't had a chance to do it yet. Would the autorun file from a program CD work??? probably not, just wondered. Lawman |
