Hello

I think what you have to do is go into the <CDROM>:\MPEG2 folder and find the "AVSEQ<number>.bin" file, rename the number only (starting from 01, then 02, 03, etc.) and then copy it to another CD's <CDROM>:\MPEG2 folder.

I don't exactly remember if there are any VCD headers that the system needs to deal with to recognize the new files, but as far as I know, this SHOULD work.

Hope this helps!

yup... but it'll be like a SVCD with 3 tracks on it, instead of having 1 full video.

you can also always try it out by making a CD image, emulating an image-based cd drive using something like Daemon Tools, and see if it'll play natively on PowerDVD... that way you won't waste a DVD if it should fail

good luck!

its a lot more complicated than that....

you need to covert the SVCD mpg to DVD compatible mpeg2 then use an authoring program to burn your DVD...
