Yeah, so, I spent most of yesterday trying to create VCDs that work. I got some info from [livejournal.com profile] kasra_c on how to do this, and it works! Except it had no sound... But, she told me how to fix that.

It works fine with my Digimon episodes. I can make VCDs! Of course, because I'm using the free version, it'll only let me put two files of 200MB or less on each VCD... but that's no big deal. It means one episode per VCD, or two if I can really squish them down.

And with Hikaru no Go... the sound was skewed. I think I've found something to make that work better, but we'll have to experiment a bit and see, first.

Needless to say, I kind of lost track of time yesterday with this... I didn't notice it was quarter to four until my mother pointed out that I'd better go or I'd be late.

Lucky I had my bellydancing stuff ready.

And... I work tonight. Bleh. And tomorrow night. Eck. And Sunday morning.

I can't wait until that's all over. Ah well...

Wait a second - there's a limitation on it? That's not right. I *know* there's a completely free version of VCDEasy out there that doesn't have those limitations, but it's harder and harder to find ever since the guy decided he was going to sell a commercial product. Hmmm... according to my old PC, I was using version 1.1.5.2, which I believe was the last completely freeware version available. Are you using that, or maybe a demo version of his new one? Not that it'll make a difference with the sound problem, but it should at least let you stick more files on it - I know I've gotten somewhere close to 500MB of just our AMVs onto the VCDs I made with it.

Good luck, and let me know if you figure out the sound problem in the end. I'm just as curious to know a solution as well, should I come across it again in the future.
