Can you re-encode in Tmpgenc?

Tmpgenc seems to accept mpg's as source files for re-encoding although the software description sais that it is supposed to take AVI's? Additionally, if the source file was already a VCD type mpg (using Kwag templates of course) should they be converted back to system mpgs first?

I have had a problem playing these re-encoded files on my DVD player after burning and I was wondering if it was acceptable to do it this way. I re-encoded just to change volume settings and audio delays from within Tmpgenc.
Cheers
