7.3.3 Video CD/Super Video CD
The selection screen for the disc formats Video CD and Super Video CD contains a
compilation area for video and picture files and an area for data. The compilation area for
videos/pictures contains the Play button, which plays the selected video. The Data area
contains data files that have been automatically added and the folder structure that is
required to create a functioning VCD/SVCD.
To select files, proceed as follows:
1. If you want to insert video files or pictures, click on the Videos/Pictures button.
Æ The compilation area for video files and pictures is opened.
2. Drag the desired files into the compilation area.
Æ The files are displayed in the compilation area and the capacity bar indicates how much
space is required on the disc. Nero Burning ROM automatically generates a slide show
from the pictures that have been inserted. If you checked the Store source pictures in
box beforehand, Nero Burning ROM automatically saves the original pictures in the
PICTURES folder in the data area.
If an MPEG file does not have the appropriate features of a VCD or SVCD, Nero Burning
ROM recognizes the wrong format and you have three options:
Turn Off Standard Compliance and Continue: Burns the file without changes to the CD.
We recommend that you only select this option if you are experienced in creating
VCD/SVCDs.
Re-Encode the Video File: Decodes the existing file, converts it to the correct resolution
and frame rate, and encodes it again. Re-encoding is done before burning. This process
requires both time and temporary memory space.
Cancel: Interrupts the addition of the video file, i.e. it is not added to the compilation.
3. If you want to view the data area, click on the Data button.
Æ The data area is opened. The area contains red folders generated by Nero Burning
ROM. This preset folder structure is required to create a VCD/SVCD. If you checked the
Store source pictures in box beforehand, you will also find the PICTURES folder in the
data area.
Do not change the folder structure in the Data area in any way and do not drag any files
into the preset folder. The folder structure is required as preset in order to create a
functional VCD/SVCD.
