Converting SVCD > DVD
I have 4 SVCD's (4 CD-Rs) that I would like to put on two DVDs.
Any help on trying to do this is much appreciated. Each of the CDs have 4 folders in it: EXT; MPEG2; Segment: SVCD. The SVCD folder has 4 files within it: ENTRIES.SVD; INFO.SVD; SEARCH; and TRACKS.SVD Not sure exatly what software to use or if it can be done. Thanks No members have liked this post.

Re: Converting SVCD > DVD
I found a guide at http://www.doom9.net/ but i couldn't make a direct link. It's called "VCD and SVCD on DVD-Rs"

Re: Converting SVCD > DVD
You should be able to put them all on one DVD. TMPGEnc DVD author seems to be the most convenient for what you want to do. Author a DVD consiting of just the 4 mpg files, one from each disc. That way, you won't need to re-encode the DVD. Even though it's a not the typical resolution, you should still be able to play it.

NTSC SVCDs are always 480x480, and PAL SVCDs are 480x576. As New Homebrew says, a lot of authoring software will allow you to put non-standard resolution MPEG files on a DVD - but not all DVD players will play them without problems. But most probably will. However, it seems strange that a 352x480 resolution DVD would be allowed on TTD, but not a 480x480 SVCD. Similarly, it's possible to put standard VCD resolution MPEG-1 video streams on a DVD without re-encoding. Dave. No members have liked this post.

Some of the poort quality commercial digital TV channels in Europe (e.g. the MTV network) broadcast channels which are very similar to SVCD specs - about 2.5Mbit/s and 544x576 resolution with 192kbps MP2 audio. However, I agree with the "DVD only" rule on TTD - it's not a perfect rule, but it's a good generalisation. But if you're looking for "DVD-quality" footage, then don't dismiss any SVCDs you see - they could be just as good, if not better than some DVD sources. The audio is obviously an exception - only DVDs can hold uncompressed PCM. But poor quality audio is also possible on DVDs - either from a poor source or from encoding to (e.g.) 128kbps AC-3 or MP2.
