 if you have the power pack, or prosuite, you shou;ld have a video editing 
package called "broadcast2000" or "bcast2000" install and edit your videos 
with it, "render" the video as mpg1, and save. use gcombust to save and burn 
as *.vcd and stick the cd into your dvd to see the movies. I am sure there 
are better ways to save as .vcd, and some where some one must know more about 
the meni system used in dvd players than I do

I have quite a bit of analog video footage (i.e. standard VHS 
videocassettes) that I am interested in capturing and outputting into 
some kind of vcd format. From what I read, it is possible to put video 
onto a standard (non-DVD) CD-R in a format that can be played by most 
DVD players.

If anyone has successfully done something like this in Linux, I would 
be grateful to hear of what hardware/software you used and what steps 
you followed.

Thanks.

see www.vcdhelp.com
You need a video capture card. Normally all TV tune cards are having capture 
facilities. You should capture in .avi format and convert them to .mpg format 
using encoders and then convert them to VCD format. I have captured using my 
Pixel view Play TVPro tvtuner card using streamer that came with xawtv. 
However foe encoding I used tmpegenc in windows and used VCDimager to convert 
and write to CDR. Though I have done this in windows it can be done in LINUX 
with linux version.
