What guide are you following? The "ztour" file is just a demonstration video...

Hi thanks for your reply i'm following one of your guides on your old site! i think i just need to convert avi files to mpeg and burn to cd's. when burning onto cd's does it tell you when you need to insert a new cd? can you tell me how to go about converting my files ready for burning?

Premiere is a bit of overkill just for converting. Jump straight to TMPGenc and use a VCD template to create the MPEG file, then use something like NERO to create the VCD file structure and burn.

Do you have the appropriate codecs installed (i.e does it play in media player?)
