OK. I downloaded the sample that is a PAL VCD called pal-vid-vcd.mpg.

This is the info from that file:

        Video 352x288 resolution
        Audio MPEG-1 Layer 2 224kbit/s 44100Hz stereo
        Size: 929600
        Total time: 5.706667

Newbie time: can this be burned directly to the vcd disc? There is a FAQ
at the site, but I could not determine if the file is already processed as
needed and ready to burn. The text at the download said:

	Captured TV broadcast - default settings. Strict VCD/SVCD specs.

Do I need to convert this file to a .cdr file to use it with crrdao?
