    Video very distorted after burning with Nero

    Background:

    I had a .divx file on my comp. The audio is VBR so used VirtualDubMod to extract the audio, loaded the now silent video and .wav file into TMPGenc and got my .mpg file.

    Played it in Windows Media, and Nero and video and audio is perfect.

    Cut the .mpg file into 2 .mpg files.

    Played each .mpg file again in Windows Media, and Nero and everything is again perfect.

    When I go to burn the CD-R, and add the file into Nero, I get an error stating:

    "The file .mpg is not a valid file for creating Video CD V2.0. A compliant video file requires the following specifications:

    MPEG-1 which was encoded for Video CD:
    audio: 44.1 kHz; stereo; 224 kbit/s
    video: 352 x 240 / 29.97 Hz or 352 x 240 / 23.976 Hz or 352 x 288 / 25Hz

    The following problems were found:
    invalid video stream: ??? fps, 640 x 272 pixels, 1150 kbit/s CBR
    invalid audio stream: 48000 Hz, 2 channels

    How would you like to continue?"

    It gives the options to Re-code the video file or to turn off the standard compliance and continue. I choose to recode and burn the disk. When I go to play it in my DVD player, the audio is fine but the video is very distorted.

    I am burning at the lowest speed possible, 4x. I'm running Nero 8. The fps on the video is 30 and I have it set to NTSC in Nero. How can I keep the dvd quality was it was before I had to recode?

    Any suggestions?

    How can you expect DVD quality in a VCD ?
    You will have to convert the DivX file to DVD(use DVD Flick) and then burn it in a DVD-R or DVD+R to get DVD quality.
    Or you can encode the DivX to DVD quality mpg using TMPGEnc Plus and burn the mpg as Data-CD or Data-DVD and hope that your DVD player supports it(mine does).

      I don't have DVD-RW

      I used TMPGenc to encode it to mpg dvd quality. That's what I'm saying. When I play that .mpg on the comp it looks great dvd quality, but when I burn it as VCD, then play it in my DVD that supports VCD, it's choppy.

        vcd is mpeg 1 or vhs quality

        dvd or avi is much better quality

        what is "choppy"?

        svcd is almost dvd quality but still not quite there

        dvd burners are cheap so are divx/xvid players

          Please read basics first.
          When I play that .mpg on the comp it looks great dvd quality, but when I burn it as VCD,
          The DVD quality mpg is probably 720 x 480 at about 4-8 Mbps.Whereas the VCD is 352 x 288 at 1150 kbps. The higher resolution and much higher bitrate makes the DVD mpg(MPEG2) much better for viewing than the VCD MPEG1.
