    Compress in what way? Do you mean downsize it by transcoding it into iPod compatible .mp4, or simply archiving it?

    I have several DVDs on my iPod that I have converted with Cucusoft iPod Video Converter suite that are about 800MB! I am rely hopeing to get them down to at least 400MB is there a way? Can I make them smaller than 400MB?

    Thanks,
    Domreis

    Will be back here more... I was on vacation the last few weeks if you was wondering where I was! Thanks Lethal!

    You can re-convert the videos with less quality sound and video, then it should compress it a bit.

    No. The only way to reduce the size of a video is to reduce the quality, or change the format -- which isn't an option.
