first copy all *.dat files from 3 cds to your hdd and then convert them using total video converter or any other software.... then merge the vob file using video splitter software and while burning thru nero select an option to make Video DVD or similar to that.

First you have extract (convert) .dat files from the VCDs to your harddisc as .mpg files. You can use a freeware called 'VCDGear' for this. Then use any DVD authoring software (such as nero) to make your DVD using those mpeg files.

Beside Nero. WinX DVD Author can help u.not only convert them into single DVD but also add menu and title .
Four reasons you should take attention:
1.Easy use, only three steps to make DVD. first,add the clips;Second,add menus or subtitle;Third,burning or save in PC folder.
2.burning fast, thanks to super power encode and decode engine set into WinX DVD Author
3.Support almost all DVD format
4.You can add 99 menus or sbutitles, personalized your DVD and enjoy your classic,both background picture and music are include.

But the bitrate of VCD and DVD has difference, and I am actually converting a low quality video(low bitrate VCD 1411Kbps) to a High quality DVD quality video,
So my question is can you control the bitrates and still play the DVD on DVD player....

Till Now my best bet is to write movies in Divx format thus 7 movies on a single layer DVD(I knw that's awesome!). But I want DVD's That can be played on a DVD player(not Divx compatible).
