KVCD guide to cram two mpeg-1 videos into one CD-R ?
There are many posts floating around (not including mine) asking how to go about cram 2 mpg1 into 1 KVCD. If its not too much to ask, could a guide be done on this? It would be very helpful and solve many questions a newbie has about doing this. And perhaps reduce the number of posts made about this subject. THis is just a suggestion...

@wowiegurl,
Simply open each .mpg file(s) with DVD2AVI as input. Then follow any of the DVD to KVCD guides. Depending on the mpeg quality and output resolution will determine picture quality :) -BP |
DVD2AVI doesn't seem to like my MPG1 files. What can I do?
|
@wowiegurl,
Use VirtualDub and go to file --> File Information --> look at video and audio stream. Let me know what information is there. :) -BP |
video 352x288 25fps
audio 44hz 244kbps thanks so much :oops: |
Use the same scripts as with AVI files, only exchange AVISource for DirectShowSource. If you load the AVI file like this: AVISource("path\clip.avi") , use DirectShowSource("path\clip.avi",audio=false,fps=2 5) instead. You should extract the audio in VirtualDubMod and process it separately, that's why the audio has been disabled in the DirectShowSource line.
This way it might work. |
There is one thing I don't understand.
Why do you try to convert VCD material to KVCD? The quality won't be any better, in fact it will suffer greatly from re-encoding. Any DVD-player should be able to play VCDs so that is not the problem. |
hi boulder,
actually im my limited experience with 2cds to 1 cd KVCD there is no noticable loss after encoding. so most people prefer to have 1 cd instead of getting up to change em. i think thats why anyhoo ;) cheers KYUSS |

Well I'd rather have 1 cd than 2 but the learning process to doing this is very difficult but I don't mind. Once I figure out how to do things it will be much easier and I'll save more money as well.

Just get a 99min. CD-R, and cram the movie on that one... :roll:

problem though. Your mpg1 vcd files when merged as one will be greater than 1 80min CDR. I believe you said 850mb. Combining them into 1 KVCD will not reduce their total very much. You will still exceed 1 80min CDR. It would look worse when re-encoded at a lower CQ to fit 1 80min CDR. So, this approach dosen't look promising :cry: -BP |
combining them allows you to put 2 800mb (or even 3) mpgs onto 1 cd and the quality is exactly the same as original in my eyes m8......whether its VCD or SVCD.

KVCD/KSVCD templates :P the cd i have seen with a 3 cd movie put on 1 cdr was svcd.....its QT's5th and the 3rd cd was undersized so i think it was 635mb or something. but i am not guffing.......to my eyes (maybe they need testing:P ) no quality loss is noticeable. have you tried it m8? cheers KYUSS |

have the same resolution (352x288, PAL) and check what the audio format is (i.e. .mp2). Now check for a PAL version of KVCD at 352x288 template. As I last remember you had a problem with DVD2AVI. Could you be more detailed about this problem and what error messages. What were your settings for DVD2AVI for video (force file should be OFF). I believe you could get your movies on 1 KVCD with little or no picture loss :) -BP |
