Hi Kwag,

First of all I'd like to say that I'm very much impressed with your work on KVCD. I love it!!!

But I'm running out of luck on playing KVCDx2 (PAL 704*576) with my JVC XV-S302... I've got the movie Con Air encoded with this template (tested on 3 other JVC's and worked like a charm ) but when I try to play it, I get a flashing green screen (not completely, I can see the movie on 50% of the screen) and it's playing way to fast (like it's fast-forwarding).. also, the sound stutters a bit

I don't have these problems when I'm actually fast forwarding the movie. When I do that, it looks very nice without the green blocks etc.

My question is, how can I resolve this ??
I read the topic from "Haay1971" who had kind of the same problem as me (only he has a JVC XV-E112)
There you suggested to use the SKVCD samples and test them... well ... I d/l the "Fairscape" sample and I must say it doesn't look nearly as good as KVCDx2 (2cd's PAL)... or is it just me ?

Maybe this is a stupid question but isn't it possible to load the template into TMPGENC, and select to let it encode to MPEG-2 and then burn it as an (non-standard) SVCD ?

Another (stupid? ) question, what does "remux" mean ??
thanks in advance

I tried this (I set the "Stream type" in "Settings - Video" to "MPEG-2 Video" and "Stream Type" in "Settings - System" to "MPEG-2 Super VideoCD VBR").. and burned the sample... when I try to play it, it looks 100% perfect and the audio is 100% perfect aswell...
But at the bottom of the screen, I get a row of purple and green blocks that are constantly flickering

anyone ?

That means I went into TMPGEnc, chose: File --> MPEG Tools.
There I went to tab: "De-Multiplex", opened the mpeg file, saved the audio and video streams as separate files. (demux)
Next I went to tab: "Multiplex", 'Add'ed the two streams, chose MPEG2 Super VideoCD (VBR) as mode to save and click "Run". (remux)

Simple as that
