what is the best way to burn a short film onto a CD so it can be played on a DVD player. I really have no idea about this and have never attempted this process, so any information would be fantastic.


(note: I have Adobe Premier and Easy Cd Creator.)

mpg1 vcd format using nero burning rom (max 110min)

for higher res and bitrate use mpg2 SVCD with nero plug in(max40min)

SVCD also allows for basic menus

Is this is for cd? I take it u wnat to hand these out or something?
if thats the case use vcd as there are fewer compatibility issues

Keep in mind that not all DVD players can play SVCD discs, although
most should be able to. A VCD should play on all players but
has a lower resolution indeed.

Are you sure abou the 110 minutes? Because I have a couple
of 100 minute movies on VCD that are split on two discs. I'd
say the max is about 60 minutes or so...
