The MPEG
Converter Help Page
This is the help page for the MPEG converter
tool, which is part of the KarVCD toolset. The purpose of this tool is to
encode AVI files to MPEG so that they can be written to a VCD.
Let us take
a look at the MPEG converter window fields and buttons:

At the top
of the MPEG converter dialog there is the Files group of controls. In
this group there are two identical sets of controls, one for the input AVI file
and another for the output MPEG. Each set has the following elements:
¨
File name. This field shows the file name.
¨
Browse. This button lets you select
another file.
Follows a
description of the remaining elements:
¨
Progress bar. This control shows the progress as
the file is being converted.
¨
Convert. This button initiates the conversion
process.
¨
Abort. This button stops the conversion
process.
¨
Play. This button lets you view the output file
that was created during the conversion process.
¨
Status. This field shows you the time
already converted versus the total time.
¨
Help. This button shows you the file that you are
now reading.
¨
Close. This button closes the MPEG
Converter Dialog and returns you to the Main Window.
The operation of the MPEG converter is
straightforward: You select the input and output files and hit Convert.
When you
hit the Play button to view the result of the conversion, the program
will activate whichever external player is defined for MPEG files.
