    Hi guy,
    Can you guys recommend a software that can make my movie (817.25mb an .mpg file) file size smaller so it will fit into a one cdr. It dosn't matter what format it will turn into(mpg, avi etc) As long as it fits onto one cdr. Any help would be greatful.

    You can fit a 817mb mpg file on a Single 700mb CD-R in VCD or SVCD Format...Normally a 700mb CD-R can hold 800mb of Mpeg data in VCD or SVCD Format but since your file is Just a Little Big use the "Overburn " feature in Nero and set it to 82 minutes and then it will burn up to 820mb on a Single 700MB CD-r...If the Mpeg file has a Couple minutes of Credits at the end you can use Tmpgenc"s "Mpeg tools" to cut the last 2 minutes off the end so it will bring the size down to about 800mb which you can easilly fit on a 700mb CD-R with little or no overburning...Cheers
