So, I like viewing my own video files on older computers. I render Cinepak MOVs in Sony Vegas and they play back fine on a 4x and even a 2x CD drive, but you can't play MOVs in fullscreen VGA mode like AVIs in Windows 3.1, so it'd be nice to be able to make those as well. But for whatever reason, whenever I try to make Cinepak AVIs in Sony Vegas or FFmpeg and burn them to a CD, the laser doesn't go along a linear track and instead constantly seeks back and fourth during playback causing nasty framerate drops. I don't know if it's because the audio stream isn't alongside the video or what. If anyone here is familiar with this topic, please enlighten me on how to get these videos to play properly from a CD. For now, I have to play them back via the HDD on my 486 since that's fast enough to handle the seeking. Also, is there any way to lower the bitrate with FFmpeg at least? At 320x240 15fps I always get around 2000kbps no matter what I try.
