creating vcds?

[Thanatoast]

does anyone know a quick and easy way to burn vcds on osx? does it require purchasing extra programs or can i do it using just the system itself? any help is sincerely appreciated, thanks. :confused:

i dont think its built in natively

you may require a copy of toast by roxio

I looked around... here's a useful website.

RNC's Guide To SVCD On Mac (http://homepage.mac.com/rnc/)

The first topic on that page deals with some free software that lets you burn movies directly from iMovie onto a VCD.


VCD Builder (http://homepage.mac.com/johan/)

This one has what appears to be a pretty nice menu building system; however it doesn't burn CDs directly. I'm sure there's a way to burn the bin/cue images without Toast under OS X, but I've never tried it myself.

Also, both are free.

Two other invaluable tools for all your movie burning needs (vcd, svcs, dvd)-

Mpeg2Works (http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/20867)

Mpeg2Works is worth every penny of it's $19 IMO...
