    Hi,
    I am really confused at how a 800MB (The CD label says Princo) can store data of 2.35GB of videos.
    I look at the file system, it says it is UDF file system.
    But still, how can you put 2.35GB of videos into a CD that only has 800MB storage? Can someone please explain to me how do you do it?
    I would love to find it out as I have a lot of video recording that are stored in my computer. It will be really nice to have it play on TV.
    Thanks in advance.

    Perhaps the 2.35 GB video was in mpeg2 or DVD format and when it was re-encoded with mpeg4 codec the resulting file was only 800 MB in size, due to more efficient mpeg4 codec.
