On a vcd disc, there's a folder that is called mpeg (I think) the video file is located there, they have an extenstion as .dat, rename it to .mpg and you should be able to grab into premiere, however, just keep in mind, vcd resolutions are half of what dvd are, so you might have pixalation issue when play back

I am creating a senior video for the class of 2006. I am using Adobe Premiere 6.5 for this endeavor. I am a newbie and my technical vocabulary is on an amateur level. I have been working on this video for months using photos. A mother gave me a DVD with a collection of senior events. The mother recorded the movies using her new Digital Recorder (I am not sure what brand). I have watched the video on Media Player on my computer and the movie looks fine. When I try to import the files nothing shows when I open the folder. The files are VCD files. I think that I have to change these files to MPEG files. I know this is probably a simple and common problem but I have searched for the answer to my problem for 6 hours and I am frustrated to no end. Can I convert the file? Do I have to purchase extra software to convert the movie? Can this even be done? I know that many of you are tired of such trivial questions, but you are reading words from a desperate woman!
