    Rip the VCD into MPEG using VCDGear. Then create a DVD with iDVD. Hth :)

    This is like blowing up a 1x1 picture into an 8x10 photo. The result wouldnt be a good looking picture with all the pixels in your image. Why would you want to convert it to DVD?

    In that case, I suggest you tell your friend to just recopy the VCD into VCD format. IMHO.

    BTW most DVD players (except the very oldest ones) are able to play back VCDs without
    any problem whatsoever.
