I am sure there are many other ways to do this. However, I do it on a regular basis using the "mencoder" (the encoder made by the guys who made the best media player, mplayer). Also, I would highly recommend using XVid, not only because it's open source, but because the compression to quality ratio is pretty damm amazing. I have tried this procedure with mpeg2 stream files from SVCDs, .iso's of SVCDs(mpeg-2), .bin (the format made popular by CDR-Win) files of SVCDs. It has worked wonders for me. Hope it does the same for you. (Also, I was under the impression that VCDs were mpeg-1 and SVCDs and DVDs were mpeg-2. Am I wrong? ) -- Bhargav Bhatt, Department of Applied Physics and Applied Mathematics, Columbia University. -- http://www.bhargav.com -- As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality, they are not certain; and as far as they are certain, they do not refer to reality. --Albert Einstein -- _______________________________________________ http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
