"non-impressive base machine" & convert it to MPEG2 - altho I'm not

happy to put up with...
I'd appreciate VCD resolution at a minimum. Even a P100 (or CD-32 with
MPEG cart) can play back a VCD mpeg.
Otherwise I could burn them to SVCD if anyone has
DVD players that can
play them...
I do! I have an upgraded Apex AD600A (I had to update the firmware
because mine had a bug - it couldn't play SVCD disks with the video
file in the MPEG2 directory, only in the MPEGAV directory).
My experience is that an SVCD MPEG (which is 480x480) runs about 50 min
for an 800Mb file (which barely fits on an 80 min CD-R because it uses
2552(?)-byte sectors, not 2048 byte sectors. Looks nice, though. VCD
(352x200) is about 500MB for the same length (about 10MB/minute).
I'm game, but I have broadband (presuming you didn't want to burn
disks).
