Hi, i'm having a problem burning video files into DVD using Pioneer DVD (just bought from lowyat, the RM300+ one). so far the files which i've tried on are .avi and divx. using Nero, it said something about codec problem. how to overcome this? ur help is much appreciated, thanks.

Is there any recommended freeware convert WMA to MP3?

I'm using winavi to convert my RM or RMVB to VCD, the original RM* file sizes are double when converted to mpeg format (eg 100MB to 200MB) the resolution are not good as original RM* format. If i want to burn it to DVD, what format should i go for? for watching by using DVD player at 29" TV? how is the file size will be? Any pros please help Thanks in advance!

There is guide available to convert RM/RMVB to VCD (MPEG1):

http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=183480

Above guide convert into MPEG1 but DVD use MPEG2.But wait!Just keep reading.

The quality is good but cannot help the size.My mine (tested file) is 16MB in RMVB but convert to MPEG1 is 44MB.

DVD used MPEG2.So, you need to convert into MPEG2.There is few tools available which can convert MPEG1 into MPEG2 (like bbMPEG).

So basically :
1. Convert RMVB into MPEG1
2. Convert MPEG1 into MPEG2
3. Burn using Nero

Try to reinstall the winavi again, anyway, is that a legal copy?

Thanks for the detailed explanation. So troublesome to convert it to DVD

1 question

Can i burn VCD format which is mpg to a dvd disc? Can i still select 'Burn VCD' in nero?

yes it is legal copy(trial) i haven do anything to that copy b4 since i cant convert so i dinnt do anything yet.

download Graphedit http://www.doom9.org/Soft21/Filters/graphedit.rar

In graphedit, goto File > Render Media File and select the rmvb file. post your result.

actually, you can convert rmvb straight to mpeg2 using a AviSynth-supported mpeg2 encoder like CinemaCraft Encoder or TMPGEnc

for newbie, can use Nero Recode (part of Nero Vision Express), for more expert ppl can use AviSynth+x264+mp4box

Thanx for the feedback.I never used CCE so no idea at all.I only have TMPGEnc freeware which do not have MPEG2 plugin.I try to link but it gave me an error that evaluation-thing-something has ended.

I have idx, srm, sub DVD subtitles... how do I convert them into SRT with VobSub or SubRip? Anyone can help me please?
