A Complete Guide – Converting and Burning Any Video Format to DVD
Extract video from a VCD
The first thing you need to do is extract your VCD files to your hard disk. If you already have extracted VCD files, then proceed to Convert Mpeg to AVI. For this operation, i chose VCDGear to get the job done.
First go to VCDGear.com, download, install and open. The software will look this(image below).
Extract VCD(.DAT) to Mpeg
Click the vcdgear tab. Under Extraction / Conversion, choose dat ->mpeg(scroll down menu) and don’t forget to tick Fix Mpeg Errors(see image below).
Now put in your VCD that you want to extract in your Disc tray and click the load button. Locate your .DAT file and click Open. After that you will be prompt to save your converted file location(i prefer to save it at the desktop as it will be easy for me to locate). And don’t forget to press the Start button(see image below).
Wait for the conversion to finish. You can also converts VCD(DAT) to MPG, SVCD(MPG) to MPG, VCD BIN/CUE to MPG, SVCD BIN/CUE to MPG(see image below).
Convert Mpeg to AVI
Before you convert to DVD format. You have to convert to AVI format first, go to Any-video-converter.com and download Any-video-converter. Install, open and locate the file you have just extracted just now. I saved the file at desktop so it’s easy for me to locate back(see image below).
Next, at the top right corner, press the scroll down menu, choose Customized AVI Movie (*.avi) and press the Convert. Why i chose Customized AVI Movie (*.avi) whereas you can convert .DAT file to DVD straight away. Because this software doesn’t have the option to burn DVD right away.
Why choose Customized AVI Movie (*.avi) and not Mpeg to convert to DVD? As for me i prefer Customized AVI Movie (*.avi) because i have tested using Customized AVI Movie (*.avi) and Mpeg on my DVD player. Customized AVI Movie (*.avi) works best for me.
Mpeg has standard resolutions and bitrates; it’s used for VCD’s and DVD’s. as for AVI is the windows-format for video; you can choose and edit bitrates, resolutions, sound quality, in general, AVI gives you more options.
Adding Subtitles to AVI
For this case is optional, if you have a different language in your video and you want to add subtitles in. Download and install DivXLand Media Subtitler. Open DivXLand Media Subtitler and go to open your video that you have converted to AVI.
Next, search for your movie title subtitle. You can use Opensubtitles.org to search. Opensubtitles.org is a movie subtitles database. If you can’t find your movie title, you can request one.
After you have found you subtitle, download it and add your subtitle to DivXLand Media Subtitler.
You can edit the title in Captioning Mode.
Note: Your subtitles should be in SSA format. To do this, go to File menu and Save as. Choose SubStation Alpha [SSA] and click the OK button.
After you have satisfied with your video. Go to File menu and click Embed Subtitles….
Wait for it and continue below to convert your video file to DVD.
Converting and burning AVI to DVD
Download and install ConvertXtoDVD. This isn’t a freeware but this is a good software, you convert and burn at the same time. The only limitations is, you get watermarks on the video.
Open up ConvertXtoDVD and insert your edited AVI file.
You can edit the AVI file like Adding a Disc name or Title Menu. After you have edit the AVI file. Click the Convert button and wait for it to finish converting.
After you have finish the conversion, insert your blank DVD in your Disc tray and click the Burn button.
You can watch the video on how the ConvertXtoDVD works.
Well, this is the end of the guide. Maybe you will become a professional video editor!

How to burn dvd?here is an answer
ConvertXtoDVD looks like a pretty simple program to use. I will probably go ahead and use vcdgear, but do you know if convertxtodvd will work with dvdshrink files? Thanks for this blog. It helped with just what I was trying to do. Found when searching through bing, btw.
