Yeah I read that. I tried using the VCD, since I don't know if my DVD
can play the SVCD.

I grabbed a few files, both MPG and AVI to test. Only one MPG
converted to VCD. The Nero complained the others were not the correct
format. I can't remember the error message, but something about not
being...maybe MPEG1....I only tried it once.

I'm not worried about the computer. If I burn a CD, then I'll keep it
in the same format. I have a Chinese DVD player Earthstink was
offering for free. Damn thing plays everything, CD, DVD, VCD, MP3, PAL
and NTSC! It's in the bedroom now. I have some FujiFilm CDRs, which
are the Tiao Yuden or how ever you spell it. They should work since
that company has made CDRs for like forever.

Thanks, I'll let you know how it turns out.
Thanks for the help
Ta!
