Please spend two seconds and look up the specification. All the formats
listed in my previous post are DVD COMPLIANT.
Please reread this:
9. Only DVDs produced as DVDs may be seeded here.
No DVDs will be allowed to be seeded here with conversions from lesser quality video (ie. VCD/SVCD/DivX/xvid/etc converted to DVD).

This is TTD's policy because a VCD is the video equivalent of mp3. We are trying to maintain standards here, it does not matter that it is DVD compliant. Many CD players can now play mp3s but we still don't allow them here. Same thing for VCDs. Not sure how much clearer this can be.

You may think these standards are arbitrary and wrong but they are there for a reason. If you have a problem with that then take your torrent over to thepiratebay or something.
