What kind of mpeg, size, and resolution? If it's already VCD, SVCD or
DVD compliant, then you only need an authoring program (which are
really very fast). No need to convert to DivX. As a matter of fact, if
your player can cope with DivX, I bet it can also play .mpg files,
without the need to author them first.

Did you even read the OP ? Or did you only see the
small part you quoted?

If the ."mpg video file" is DVD compliant then all you need
to do is author it. This will take about 20min for a full DVD.
I like TMPGEnc DVD Author, many like DVDLab. If you
work with unedited video, then many editing packages
include an authoring application/function.

If your .mpg only requires some minor editing then there
are now smart MPEG editing options available. For just
simple cuts and joining (as well as making the .mpg more
DVD compliant) I prefer VideoReDo. There are also
always the Womble MPEG products.
