Hi all, I'm in the process of finishing up a product which can convert a number of picture to an AVI, and I have been requested to make this avi in to an VideoCD. Since I'm using DirectX allready for the AVI creation I was wandered if there is any Codec which I can purchase to save the AVI as a VCD (preferably) / SVCD format? Regards Yannis.

It's not a directx codec, but you can try: http://www.binarymagics.com You will need the mpeg encoder and the vcd burner.

Thank you for your time and effort. I will take a look on this lib ASAP. Kind regards Yannis. Back to top Nils Haeck Guest Posted: Tue Jun 29, 2004 12:21 pm    Post subject: Re: SVCD CODEC required.

Another option for MPEG encoding is MCL from Gromada: http://www.gromada.com/mcl.html Nils Back to top Yannis Guest Posted: Tue Jun 29, 2004 1:45 pm    Post subject: Re: SVCD CODEC required.

I do not care what the status of their components is or the status of their support. As a pontential customer I would expect a more prompt response than this, I will not pay anyone to ignore me and thats final. So thank you for your response I'm steel searching alternatives and I have found an api translation for NERO which I think supports VCD as well so I'm investigating this at the moment and I'll take a look on your options later this month.

You first produce the MPEG1 or MPEG2 in the right format (for different video quality, note you must pay patent fees for MPEG2, per software copy sold). 2. Then, you must author the SVCD, and this can be done with VcdImager: http://www.vcdimager.org The result will be a BIN/QUE file. 3. Final stage is burning the CDROM, really here you have no other choice as Binarymagic's component I think (at least I never saw another Delphi component). Hope that helps, Kind regards, Nils "Yannis" <None (AT) Noware (DOT) non> wrote Quote: "Nils Haeck" <n.haeckno (AT) spamchello (DOT) nl> wrote in news:40e15c20$1 (AT) newsgroups (DOT) borland.com: You will need the mpeg encoder and the vcd burner.

Just a small clarification here MPEG2 is used on SVCD format where MPEG1 is used on VCD format right?? Quote: 2. Then, you must author the SVCD, and this can be done with VcdImager: http://www.vcdimager.org The result will be a BIN/QUE file. Why what is the reason of authoring a existing Video stream?? Just to convert to VCD or is there any other reason ?? Quote: 3. Final stage is burning the CDROM, really here you have no other choice as Binarymagic's component I think (at least I never saw another Delphi component). There is NERO API which can be used at the specific customer. I do not indent to sell this application to the public at the moment so there is not need to natively support the record procedure but it is important not to relay on any external programs to create the vcd it self. As far as I NERO 6 comes with an ActiveX SVCD CODEC which I'm planning to use at this point. and I have allready downloaded the trial version of the library you have proposed in order to evaluate it. The thought is that I might be able in the future to build my own ActiveX CODEC from this unit in order to avoid dependencies on other the NERO CODEC. As for the burn proccess I am trying to gather information about the format of a VCD / SVCD CD in order to create some kind of ISO builder for it and let the user burn it through any software s/he see fit. Thank you for your comments. Regards Yannis.
