Hi everyone, here's a dilema that i'm trying to resolve: ~i've captured video from my camcorder into my computer and have pieced all of the clips together. now i'd like to burn them onto a dvd, however the clips are exceeding 8.5 gigs of information and definately won't fit onto a dvd+r. the clips themselves only add upto about 50 minutes in length, so i have a feeling that the information just needs to be compressed down to fit the parameters of blank dvd media. could someone give me a basic idea of what program(s) to use for compressing clips of this nature and what should be my target format for compression. Thanks!! _X_X_X_X_X_[small]"Experience is the name every one gives to their mistakes." Oscar Wilde[/small]
Firstly don't try & [bold]bold[/bold] what cannot be done ;-) [edited thread title for ya] What format have you got at the moment , is it .MPG ... MPEG 2 (DVD comlaint) ? I normally encode to MPEG2 (w/ 48.000Hz & the right screen resolution) and then convert to VOB format ... but if over 4.36Gb then I'd compress DVD2One (DVD Shrink is a free alternative). _X_X_X_X_X_[small] Afterdawn Guides: http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/ Afterdawn Rules: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/6346[/small]
