The 'geekier' method described in the first reply above is a far better way of maintaining quality (although possibly at the expense of compatibility, some DVD players won't play SVCD resolution files from a DVD).ģb. This is going to take hours and will significantly reduce the visual quality. the only way you're going to end up with a DVD this way is if you use Toast 6's 'video' tab and let it re-encode the SVCD's 480x480 video and 44.1KHz audio into 720x480 video and 48KHz audio.

at least on my Mac (10.3.8), after inserting a SVCD (or a VCD) you cannot access it at /dev/cdromģa. vcdxrip from the latest version of ffmpegX (0.0.9s) does not recognise the -c flag.Ģ. profile file?) there are so many other things wrong:ġ. As a result I defy anyone to turn a SVCD into a DVD with these highly incomplete instructions :-)Īside from numerous omissions (where did the vcd.bin file come from? where has he copied vcdxrip to? did he include the path to vcdxrip in his. I couldn't understand why this hint would possibly work in the way described, so I gave it a try.

Burn the joined MPEG using Toast or another recording package.

Examples: $ mpgtx -j -o joined.mpg part1.mpg part2.mpg

Join the MPEGs into one large MPEG using mpgtx.

Examples: $ vcdxrip -b vcd.bin$ vcdxrip -c /dev/cdrom Be careful to rename this after it's complete, as running another instance of vcdxrip will overwrite this file. It will create a file called avstream01.mpg.

Use vcdxrip to rip the MPEG layer out of the SVCD.

For this particular task, you'll only need two tools: vcdxrip and mpgtx. The easiest way is to download ffmpegx and simply copy them from within the application - control-click on the ffpmegx application, navigate to Contents -> Resources, and copy them to a sane location (such as /usr/local/bin or /opt/local/bin).

Tools: The tools used here can either be downloaded and compiled individually, or borrowed from ffmpegx.

This is a very easy process, but it took me a little investigative work to find the best way to do it. With DVD burners now a standard feature in many Macs, people are looking for ways to convert their old SVCDs to DVDs.
