Big colorful but unrecognizable pixels

I used Nero 5.5 to burn a couple of .avi files onto a CD. When I play it in my DVD player that is supposed to play VCDs (Apex AD-1100W) the audio is perfect but the video is big colorful and totallly unrecognizable pixels. I feel so stupid...what am I doing wrong?

marceggers,
If I read your post correctly you may want to read Chienworks reply at

and substitute MPEG I for MPEG II.

Do VCDs created with VF play OK?

Bdunn is right - as per Chienworks questions - And this AVI <=> MPG dance can be quite daunting. I have to ask - do you know if you have burnt an AVI onto a CDR - or do you think you've burnt an MPEG onto your CDR? I apologise if you find this a bit of a stupid question, but I/we need to know what you are exactly doing.

I'm sure you will get there - if I can - chances are that you will as well.

Keep the Faith!

Grazie

First, I would check to make sure that you have used the correct Video template to render your movie ,,,, IF ,,, you use the Advanced function and change the resolution to ,,,, lets say 640 x 480 ,,, the VCD will play the audio but give you the Pixilated Picture (been there ,,, done this) ,,,, Make sure you use the standard VCD template and your VCD will play awsome in your Apex player...
