Post subject: | convert cavs mp3gs to standard mp3gs |
Looks like I've hit a snag... I ended up getting three discs, they were the cavs versions of the mp3gs (didn't know that when I ordered them)... so I know that there's a conversion program... one I tried (I have it at home, so I'm sorry I should have posted it) won't work on my windows 2000... it crashes. It's a version 1. Does anybody know which one I'm talking about... and if you've had success in converting the files??? LOOKS like you might have to convert to BIN and then BACK to mp3g... cause their mp3 is different than the LAME encoded ones... Any help would be terrific. I have the files on mp3g now from someone else, but if anything were to happen to that hard drive and an archive... I'd really like to be able to backwards convert them! Matt |

Matt, Worst case, you can always cature the video and create VCD's. I've considered doing that with some of the DVD's I have. There is ALWAYS a way... |

You need the Cavs decoder to convert the .mcg to .rw file then rename changing the extesion to .cdg Google for a batch renamer that will do all in the folder ... |

Actually, the Chartbuster E1-5 is cheaper in SCDG than CDG. I thought of buying the SCDG and converting, but revoke my geek priviledges all you want, I don't know how. If you have any information on format shifting the MCG files I'd appreciate it. I'm also wondering why personally made SCDG's won't play on a PC while the commercial product will. I'm assuming a copyright flag of some sort on the commercial discs but was wondering if anyone knew for sure. BTW, the reason for now allowing personally made SCDG's to play on a pc is pretty apparent. It requires purchasing a CAVS player - even if you pirate the personally made discs and give them away they have to buy a player to use them. Good for CAVS, bad for disc manufacturer. Could be 1 of many reasons why SC isn't too happy w/ CAVS. |

finally got it to work. The problem was I had the ENCODER, not the DECODER... sheesh. anyway, yep, going straight to .cdg wouldn't work... it looked like it, but the file size was totally wrong. So I did what m'man Ozzie said and converted to .rw files. Since I don't have the microsoft .net program, and don't WANT it, the renamer123 program won't install. Instead, I went into a MS-DOS command window, changed the directory to my folder, and did a simple rename of all .rw files to .cdg ! ! > ren *.rw *.cdg Worked like a charm. I then renamed the files thru my kjpro utility "renamer", and using mp3toolz (an older beta version without the microsoft .net framework), zipped the files. Thanks again guys! |
