converting downloaded asf's or mpg's into vcd or dvd

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Video CD : One Thread

i download mp3's and want to get some movies as well. my pc isn't good enough but i do own a hardly-used dvd player (which informs me it will also take vcd and cd.) i want to know how i can convert asf format or mpg format, which seem to be the most common ones, into vcd or dvd so i can view on tv.

To convert asf to avi you need "virtualdub" (freeware):

To convert avi to mpeg you will need to have an mpeg-encoder such as "panasonic encoder", "xing mpeg encoder" or "dvmpeg".

You can use Nero burner, it will automatically convert the asf format to vcd compliant format. Converting time is depend on your pc spec
