VCD works great in computer. But audio crappy in DVD player

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Video CD : One Thread

I ripped a DVD to MPEG1. Then broke that 2.1gig file down into smaller files. The files play on the computer fine, Video and Audio in sync perfect. But when I burn those files to a VCD using NERO, the audio is all choppy, almost like it is missing a channel or something??? Any body experienced anything like that.

When I ripped the DVD should I choose the audio as stereo or joint stereo, or does that matter....tks.....Robert

Depends on what you ripped it with and how. For example, DVDx is known to produce choppy audio especially from VOBs that have multiple angles (choosing one angle/stream when ripping direct from a DVD in the DVD-ROM drive for those too lazy to rip it off beforehand with SmartRipper or DVDDecrypter). Try ripping another DVD. Or try another rippping method (DVDDecrypter+DVD2AVI+VFAPIconvert+TMPGenc?? laborious). Or check VCD compliance in Nero. Use the latest Nero 5.5.9.17.

It's also possible that your total bit rate is too high for your DVD player to read smoothly (I've done that and gotten choppy audio).
