Hi all.
   I downloaded a movie from MV Group which I wish to play on my video
recorder. The size is 747MB so it will not fit on a 700MB cd.

I therefore ran.....

ffmpeg -i inputfile.avi -target vcd-pal outputfile.mpg

and burnt outputfile.mpg using k3b to a cd. The resulting disk is not
recognised by the dvd player which is supposed to play a vcd/divx.

After many attempts at various formats&    browsing the web I am now

thoroughly confused. What am I missing?

TIA

Barry

I use a wee program called devede to generate multimedia that I can use
with my DVD player.

Dunno if that will make tapes tho (:

Cheers,

Steve

Thanks Steve, I'm trying it now. Actually its a dvd player - wrong
terminology.

If you cannot plug your computer into your TV then think about a wdtv
live or a boxee box or similar. Changing codecs all the time reduces
quality and is a huge waste of computing power.

Just found that vlc will play the disk. Also, Have i created a divx file??????
