Mpeg converter
Nov 6th, 2005 at 6:14pm
 
i just got a dvd player, and its pretty cool. I wanted to see if i could make my own dvds so i saved a few little movies onto a disk and tryed that. Some movies work others did not. So doing a little looking around i found out that the problem is that some movies are Mpeg, and some are audio/video files. The Mpeg will play on my DVD player but the audio/video file will not.

I looked around and could not find a free converter, but i am very bad at web serches and i almost never find what i want. So i was wondering if any of you guys know where i can get a free converter or at least a cheap one. All it needs to do is convert into Mpeg.

I think chris has one, he converts some of our movies into smaller things, and i think that is what he is useing.

Im thankfull for any and all help.  Smiley

I don't know about windows media player, but when i burn cd from there that are in mp3, it converts it for me. I don't know if windows media play will even burn dvd if you have a dvd burner. It might be worth a try and it is free.

email me and I'll email it to you - use the mail link from the website link on any of my posts :-)
Probably quicker in the long run :-)

did you email ?
not entirely sure the mail forwarding is working from the websites.
It works for me - but a couple of people have claimed to have sent me emails from the links recently which I didn't get

try converting everything into mpeg 1 files - they're pretty universal :-)
Avoid avi's as they are codec dependant.

yep unless you have a dvd playback program like powerdvd installed you won't be able to play dvd/mpeg 2 on your pc.
For some reason it seems to be a commercial codec only.
