Create a Video CD
A Video CD has MPEG1 data recorded on it, and can be played on your PC, a video CD player or a DVD player that supports video CDs.

Preparing MPEG1 Data
There is no function in B's Recorder GOLD5 to create MPEG1 data. Prepare MPEG1 data with an MPEG board or a separate application. MPEG1 files that can be recorded using B's Recorder GOLD5 must be compliant with the Video CD standard, which meet the criteria below. Use the MPEG1 Check function to check whether your MPEG1 files are compatible or not.

Note
The MPEG1 file must have both video and audio streams and have a system header in the pack at the beginning of each stream.
If there is a Video CD option in the software with which you created the MPEG1 data, make sure you have it enabled.
