Question about Burning a VCD

OceansJenny · June 2005

Ok, so if I have a VCD and I put it into my computer I can play it. So, if I want to make a copy, do I just drag the whole folder onto the desktop, put in a blank CD-R, and put the folder onto the CD and burn it? Or do I have to open the movie in a program and burn it officially?

Any help appreciated!!!

if you are using nero express, just open nero, click on "video", in a seperate window open the file you want to burn, then drag the video part of the file (sometimes there are cover art files, text info, ect. you just need the mpg. file) into the nero window. it will analyze it, then add it to the window, after this happens, choose the speed you wish to burn at, then burn the disc. i usually go for 4x speed cause it will play on more players.

Insert VCD

From there go to my computer,.. which will then display your cdrom drive which should display the name of the VCD

Right click on the icon and there should be the file

Again right click on the file and will ask you what to do.

You would wanna select Copy

You then can paste it on your Hard Drive where ever you want

When this is done you want to right click on the pasted file and select properties,.. and deselect "Read Only"

Now depending what you have as a burning program such as Nero depends on what you can burn

If you only have music burning programs then your SOL
