Introduction

This README contains the basic steps necessary for creating/burning VCD video to CDR. The links to the software necessary can be found in README.links

Cookbook Recipies for Encoding from BTTV and recording to VCD

download and make install nuppelvideo, exportvideo and the MJPEGtools mpeg2enc (or mpeg2encode*nuv*tgzs), toolame (or ffmpeg), vcdimager and cdrdao (and optionally mpgcut if your target video size os larger than fits one cd, though this is untested and the program probably violates all standards) somewhere accessible
nuvrec finefilm (or nuvrec -n finefilm for NTSC) type ^c when you're done
nuvplay -e finefilm.nuv | toolame -b 224 -m s /dev/stdin finefilm.mp2
exportvideo finefilm.nuv "|mpeg2enc -o finefilm.m1v" (for heroine-style encode do something to the effect of encode -1 -n 15 -m 2 -q 10 finefilm.nuv finefilm.m1v note: for cbr you would have to use -b 1411200, but it won't look as good … ymmv)
1. resizing
2. encoding ranges of input files is dscribed in README.avi2mpeg
mplex finefilm.m1v finefilm.mp2 finefilm.mpg (mplex is part of the MJPEGtools suite. Alternatively mplexhi can be used, but it is slower and less configurable)
CAVEAT! cutting the mpeg is depracated, since the outcome is not guaranteed to cmply to MPEG standards; it is recommended to only encode the relevant portions of the video, see README.avi2mpeg 3.3 for how. Optionally cut the mpg in parts, e. g. note: this is exactly the space a 650 M cdr should provide (74 minutes at 60 seconds at 75 frames at 2324 usable of 2352 bytes total), you might have to readjust to slightly smaller sizes so the iso fs fits 6.
```
vcdimager -l "Fine Film" --add-file=unix.desc.nfo,iso_desc.nfo
```

cdrdao write --device x,y,z --driver drivetype -v 3 videocd.cue

From mpgcut main site, http://mpgcut.sourceforge.net/ :

mpgcut Rests In Peace.

you may want to take a look at its successor: mt an mpeg toolbox instead mt extends mpgcut in many ways: more file formats supported, cut and join of mpeg files, detailed infos about mpeg file formats, … So go get it at mpgtx.sourceforge.net and update your bookmarks
