Oh man, I am not having much luck with this. Of course I always seem to have problems making VCDs :-). I was working all day and night yesterday trying to get this to work. I compiled ffmpeg 0.46. It converted the video and I made a VCD that played fine on my computer, however when I put it in my DVD I could not see any video. I noticed that ffmpeg was not making a vcd compliant mpeg. The farthest I got with it was using the -s switch to change the videos width and height. I could then see the video on my DVD, but it would cut out. There was also serious A/V sync. issues and the audio would cut out on my as well. I thought that Transcode would be able to convert the video properly so I downloaded the RedHat 8.0 packages. I tried the examples from the Transcode web site, as well I compiled Kavi2svcd to see if it would do it properly. The problem was that no matter what I did I would always get solid green in the video file. I did some Googling and found some other people with that problem. All the solutions included either not using the -V flag or using af6 as the import module instead of divx. When I used divx without the -V flag the video file was grey and white, I still could not see anything. I had to compile Transcode myself in order to get the af6 import module. If I used -x af6 and the -V flag then I could see the video moving, but the whole thing was still green. If I didn't use -V but used af6 then I could finally see the video. The problem is that the colors are all off, and everyones skin is blue. I have hit a wall on this one. I don't know how to play with the colors in Transcode to try and fix it, I'm also not sure what else I can use to try and convert these videos. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you, Jesse
