You have to convert dat file to mpeg file by using vcdgear from here http://www.vid-joiners.f2s.com/ and then use Easy CD Creator Deluxe from Adaptec to burn your mpeg files into VCD.

Montri,

What do you actually intend to do? Transfer from video tape, or avi file, or mpg file to CD, or VCD? You will require slightly different processes depending on what you want.

Thanks for the site!!!!! I had a problem a while back with the easy cd 4 so i had to burn with the NTI cd maker pro. but the NTI makes the vcd as "music.dat" I needed to recopy the file to my harddrive which i did but nothing wants to work with a .dat file thanks for the info on the program so i can re-convert it back to its proper self
