KVCD: which one encoding resolution should i use?

i have and encoded a movie running at 25fps...when i burn it wth nero 5 , do i choose "encoding resolution" as PAL or NTSC..to my understanding

PAL--->25fps
NTSC--->23.976 or 29.97fps

so i would like to know which one "encoding resolution" should i use or does it matter at all

Exactly. You choose PAL at movie 25fps
NTSC at 29.97 and 23...

And the resolution are also system dependent !

NTSC = 352*240 / 352-480-528-544 * 480
PAL = = 352*288 / 352-480-528-544 * 576

The easiest way to burn so different formats is VCDEasy.
VCD1.0 for NTSC or NTSCFilm and VCD 2.0 for PAL.

Why this ? In VCD 1.0 you don't have chapters so you shouldn't use it. I use VCD2.0 everytime PAL or NTSC.

OK that's right But if you choose NTSC in Nero the film burns in VCD 1.0. So are my experience.

I actually think that the "Encoding resolution" option in Nero takes effect only if you select to make a vcd from avi-file and Nero encodes the file by itself.

The have to shut down the standart kompatibilität. That problem you doesn't have with VCDEasy. But with Nero it's always easy.
