I have ulead but I am sure NERO will have option of burning mpeg/mpg files to DVD too. DAT file on VCD is nothing but MPEG/MPG file. You can change extension of file to mpeg/mpg and it will play like all your other mpeg files with media player
Check nero to burn mpeg/mpg files.

Actually i used to convert VCDs to DVDs earlier. The entire process was just to attach subtitles to the films i have. But of recent, any DVD player will play the film along with subtitles if they are just stored with same name...which made me thankfully to restrain from the laborious activity. smile.gif
If your need is something different than just attaching the subtitles...then it is better for you to choose Convert X to DVD software. I found that much more faster than any software..and it has nice menu to create and easy to use too...
If anyone needs the software, they can always contact me on mail.

Marcilo, i use to be able to just drag the file from the vcd straight on to the nero burning facility but since my computer went for an upgrade, the nero has updated so i have nero 8, i have tried to do it this way but an error comes and says unexpected file format.

Try this, move DAT files to one directory on your PC. Rename .DAT file to .mpeg or .mpg file. Try working with MPEG files, I am pretty sure nero will have option of burning mpegs to DVD. Any software that burns DVD has option of burning mpeg to dvd format.

VCD is nothing but type mpeg-1 encoding.

If you plan to buy, I have used ulead so I know it does the job. But there is no easy way out. One has to add videos and then prepare chapters, decide menu video and menu text. One has option of putting own music for title video too. lol. I dumped in good old last of Mohicans background score for one of my DVDs

Nero Vision or Mpeg Video Wizard, both convert VCD to DVD.

If your aim is to store 3 VCDs (as they are) in 1 DVD then there are simpler options.

The quality wont become better if you change Mpeg-1 (VCD) to Mpeg-2 (DVD).

Convert the Dat files to Mpeg and copy them as they are (The Mpeg files) onto the DVD.
Approx 6 Vcds (3 Movies) into 1 Dvd.
Your DVD player will play them.

One of the simplest and free programs to convert dat to mpeg is VcdGear - www.vcdgear.com

You mean simple and plain MPEG dump? how will it build chapters then? or Main Menu?

No it wont, it will just play the mpegs, saving space (6 CDs on 1 DVD)
Thats what he wants.
