I just got a dvd+r burner, and would like to convert some videos on my computer to dvd compliant so it can play in my dvd player. Which kvcd template is the best? Also these files have dual audio streams, and i would like to keep both streams if i could, but if i cant i would like to keep the english stream.

Hi scb212 and welcomr,

If you want a DVD compliant mpeg file, use one of the KDVD templates. Not KVCD templates.
With KDVD, you can play your encodes in any DVD player

KDVD is to make DVD compilant MPEG files. Not VCDs. So you have all the standard DVD features. The features on the authoring program you use is what dictates the features you can put on your DVD. Like AC3 audio , etc.
So if you have a high end authoring program, you can have multiple audio tracks, multiple subtitles, closed captions, etc
