I recommend you review them a couple of times before attempting to convert.

Hopefully this works for you.

If you have any more questions, let me know.

Thanks!

Ken,

Awesome job with the troubleshooting. You've definitely gone above and beyond the call of duty and I appreciate all that you have done to research and deliver a proven workaround, along with easy to follow instructions.

As expected, the trial version of IMTOO Video converter provides limited functionality. I can't justify outlaying US$45 (at this time) to upgrade to the fully functioning version of IMTOO just to convert a small bunch of around 140 Ubest .DAT files to MPEG2. However, I am happy that the cause of the Ubest VCD issue is not some unknown random problem with my laptop. You've provided a solution for my future consideration. In the meantime I've still got reliable XP Pro on my desktop PC to play these VCDs through Hoster.

Regards,

Brian
