Re: [VCDImager] ERROR: mpeg scan: pack header code expected

[David_Won]

Thanks to everybody who helped me solve this problem.
As usual the guru's of free software/opensource had all the answers within
minutes.
I can now successfully create VCD's


Steps I used to get this to work.
This was for a vcd ver 1.1

Use Mainactor to create video. Export to required format. 352 x 240 @ 29.97 Hz
(ntsc).

mplex -f1 -0 test.mpg mymovie.mpg  Where test is output file.

vcdimager test.mpg

cdrdao write  --driver generic-mmc --device 0,00,00 --speed 4 -v 1 videocd.cue



Now for me to take the next step and try making a SVCD

You have to use the correct flag for mplex to tell it to create (S)VCD
compatible streams. Try mplex -h  for usage and look for the flags that allow
you to choose the correct output format. I think the flag is -f 1 for VCD and
-f 4 for SVCD. The default is not(!) (S)VCD compatible.  You then have to
choose the same format for vcdimager.
