Don't even bother to convert that sucker, what you need is a copy of nero. Using Nero you can squeeze up to 807 MB on to a 700 MB CD-R.
Go to the following wed site Burnmpg (http://www.dvdrhelp.com/nerosvcd.htm) and you will see a step by step on how to make an SVCD. The resolution should be 480x480 for the mpeg file to be SVCD compatible. You can confirm the resolution by open up the file in Media Player and going to file in the top left hand corner and then choose properties from the list of options. Once you have done this you will see a dialogue box with the video size listed in the properties.
Once you have done this the CD should work in any DVD player that has SVCD capability.
