.WMV > Nero > VCD Question

Hello again,
I know this is not related to Vegas, but a friend who is not very knowledgeable asked me a question. Using some simple program he has developed a completed picture-and-audio file XXXXX.WMV and has been trying to burn a VCD (with a CD disk) using Nero 7.
Playback of the original result (in his Hard Disk) is OK. But...
He said that the result of burning with Nero was that he ended up with a disk that plays at a much higher speed than normal. I listened to it on the phone, and indeed "Moonlight Serenade" was clearly discernible, but at a much faster tempo. Another piece of Frank Sinatra sounded tinny and fast, with a bit of "tremolo."
He added that he had done this type or burning before without problem, but it suddently started acting in this fashion.
Any suggestions as to what the problem may be would be appreciated.
Thank you
John

Hi
In the first place your friend is not going to burn a VCD using a WMV file. A complaint VCD requires a specific kind of MPEG-1.
He may have put a short WMV on a CD but I don't think it's going to play in any set top player. My thought is he created a data CD and just copied the file over.
He would have had to render out his original video as MPEG-1 VCD to burn an actual VCD. This can all be done right in Vegas start to finish.
That is if I understand what you're saying correctly.
Regards
Allen
