    Hi
    I am new to recording vcd and other stuff so would appreciate some help if possible.
    I put Rocky 2 onto my computer which said it was 701 mb, now if i save it using nero and burn it on to a disc as a file it fits but if i try to burn it on as a vcd it is then to long to fit.
    How can i get it all on to one disc?????
    Also how can you put any longer movies onto 2 disks??
    Can you split movies or compress them with a programme to fit onto 1 disk?
    Oh and one more question how do you save a mpeg or movie file onto your hard drive as a vcd format?
    Thanx in advance

    @tedflat, what format is the source file? DivX, XViD??cIf its an avi file, then look for a DivX to VCD guide. You have encode it first, split it and then burn it. The reason it was showing up too big in Nero is nero was trying to do the encoding for you, Nero is a terrible encoder so look for a beer encoder, im sure ull find a decent guide anyway. Click Guides at the top of this page and have a look.

    @theasker, Click File - MPEG Tools and Click "Merge and Cut". Here you can select a part of the file to save using the "{" and the "}" to select the area. Save as 2 seperate files.
