VCD authoring - what's required

Steps involved in making a VCD

  • Export your video segments as MPEG1 using the MPEG1 VCD settings for either PAL or NTSC depending on which territories you will be distributing the disc in.

  • Import your MPEG1 video files (in the .mpg format) to your VCD authoring or CD burning application. Many CD burning applications will let you author a VCD as one of their options.

  • Choose to burn your CD in the VCD 2.0 format. Each video file you imported will create a separate chapter on the disc that can be skipped forward or backward to using the DVD player remote control or media player software on computer.

  • Burn your VCD and test on software media players and on your hardware DVD player.
