um, do you want to stream a mpg/avi file OR a live webcam?\n\nyou can't do both combined, when you stream a webcam live it is (generally) not saved to a file anywhere. when you stream a mpg/avi file it has obviously been made previously and isn't live or connected to your webcam in any way.\n\nEDIT: that's one of the most bizarre things i've heard, i won't bother asking why you'd want to do that...but, you need this:\nhttp://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Chat/Other-Chat-Tools/Fake-Webcam.shtml\nhttp://www.fakewebcam.com/Products.asp\n\nit's a free trial, don't expect to find software like that free - there isn't much of it about to begin with 'cos it's a niche market so paid for software is your only avenue, how you get that software is really up to your conscience.

yes, you may try a free SUPER, but it is so buggy.\n\nI recommend AVS Video Converter: http://www.best-video-converter.com/avs-video-converter.html\n\nThe program is very simple.\n- install and run it\n- open *.ifo or *.vob files from a DVD (*.ifo is preferable)\n- click "To AVI"\n- select one of available profiles or click Edit Profile to manually set the output video profile parameters: try to set higher bitrate to get better output video quality \n- click "Convert Now"\n\nThe higher bitrate, the better quality!!!

If your desire is to convert the AVI files to a DVD-related file structure for the purpose of playback on a conventional DVD standalone player, do the following:\n\n1. Convert the AVI/mpeg file(s) to a DVD compliant mpeg-2 file(s) using "TMPGEnc" or "TMPGEnc Plus". Use the DVD template (NTSC or PAL) form the "Project Wizard" to help you accomplish the task.\n\n2. Then use "TMPGEnc DVD Author" (different than "TMPGEnc") to author the newly created mpeg-2 into a DVD-related file structure (.IFO, .BUP, .VOB). As an alternative, you can use "DVDLab" to author as well.\n\n3. If the combined filesize of the project exceeds 4.37 Gig, use "DVD Shrink" or similar transcoding program to compress.\n\n4. Use "Nero" or similar burning program to burn onto a DVD (r, rw) disk.

No, it is completely the same. It is basically only file renaming. But you cannot just rename mpg files into dat then burn it into CD hoping VCD player can read it. You have to follow the VCD standard. Like the resolution should be 352x288 or 352x240, only accept 30fps (for PAL) or 25fps (for NTSC) you also have to use 1150kpbs as the bitrate.\nIf you don't want to create this manually. Many programs offer straight conversion into VCD format (that is still mpg or MPEG-1). The popular one is Nero 7. See it on www.nero.com. It includes a program to convert video files into VCD format, just click and it's done! This program can also convert avi files into VCD format.\nSorry, there's nothing you can do with the VCD that you've made, you must reencode the files and burn a new VCD. But, you can still play it using PC =p Good luck!

ummm....depends on what site you got the file from....most likely the files are in a rar or other compressed format.  You will need to uncompress the files, normally right-click on the first file, choose extract here, then you should get a video file ( ext. of .avi or .mpg), if you get 2 more files ( .bin and .cue) then you will need to use a tool to extract the .mpg image file from the .bin file, or you can simply burn the .bin file with a burning program such as nero and watch the movie on disk.   hope that helps :)

videora ipod converter, and it's free!!!!\n\nPS.  itunes loses sound when it converts video, just in case you run across any mpgs you want to convert to .mp4 or .m4v.
