Burn MPEG Files to Video CD:
1. Launch your CD writing software.
2. Navigate to the folder that stores the exported MPEG files (eg C:\Album VCD) and copy all
the MPEG files onto the CDR. Ensure you select the Video CD format. For MPEG-2 files,
you may want to select the Super Video CD or DVD format.
Note:
Users should take note that the quality of the Video CD albums and viewable on TV will
not be as good as the albums created on FlipAlbum CD viewable on the PC. In order to
achieve optimum quality for the Video CD albums that you create, you may want to
design your albums with the following points in mind.
1. Do not have too many annotations. Text does not look good in the video format.
2. If you do insert annotations, try to avoid fonts with straight edges. Large font sizes
are also encouraged, like point size 28 and above for normal-sized fonts.
3. Try to choose a darker page and book background. This will minimize the flickering
effect that may occur on some TVs.
4. Size of your pictures does matter. Whenever possible, use the centerfold mode for
your pictures so that they will occupy as much of the screen as possible.
To assist you in understanding the process of burning the MPEG file to the CDs in the Video
CD format, the Ahead Nero Burning ROM CD writing software will be used as an example.
