    im guessing your talking about a movie? SVCD/VCD?

    then it doesent belong in this forum, technically it belongs in the SVCD forum

    oh! no Im not reffering to any VCD / SVCD crap :) lol. After ripping & transcoding using XviD, my file size is say 800MB? Now without splitting the file can I overburn it onto a CDR of 700MB? If so, what is the max overburn that can be done.

    thx in adv.
    njoy!

    hmm, overburning a Divx file?

    do you mean for storage? or for watching it on a Divx player?

    but for the time being untill you reply you can check out these links for a bit more info on general overburning

    My bad. I'm just blind. As an XviD file you'll probaby be limited to 730MB via overburning. Now if you use 800MB or 900MB cds, thats a diffferent story. http://www.hazza.dsl.pipex.com/faq.htm#OVERBURN
