DVD to CD.

[John Fitzsimons]

Okay, this question gets asked here from time to time and I HAVE tried
some of the recommendations. BUT they were far from easy IMO to use.
Is there a "program for dummies" that will convert a DVD to a video
CD ?

The main problems I have had so far were making sure that all three
VOB files were included (not just the first one) and making sure the
sound was copied. Not just the video.

Regards, John.

Easy Instructions follow:

1. Install TMPGEnc http://www.tmpgenc.net/e_main.html

2. Install DVD2SVCD http://www.dvd2dvd.org/

3. Insert DVD into your DVDRom Drive.

4. Open DVD2SVCD, click the "output" tab and be sure "output file type" is
VCD.

5. Click the "conversion" tab, click the CD icon and load your ifo file.

6. Hit Go.

4-18hours later, depending on cpu speed, ram, hd speed and length/type of
movie, you will have bin-cue files to burn to cd using your favorite cd
burner.
