The 700meg Barrier

What's your point Dapadipz? The used space on your disk is 693mb. There are 1024 kilobytes in a megabite. Do the math: 727560192/1024=710508 kilobytes, 710508/1024=693,85546875 Megabytes

vdub is an old fav for cutting avi files
tmpeg can cut mpeg files (not my fav)
m2-edit can cut mpeg files
mpeg2cut can cut mpeg files(ive found this will cut anything m2-edit wont)
or the most recent one i have found is
Easy Video Splitter it can cut avi and mpeg files but seems to use the most resources of the lot on my pc..maybe not on other ppls..my suggestion is to use this 1st and if ya dont like it go for one of the others...i have only used Easy Video Splitter a few times cause ive had it for only 4 days and i havent done much testing with it,but the few files i have cut with it seem fine..
Easy Video Splitter is the easiest of the lot cause all it does is cut the file as is,you dont need to do any settings other than what size and how many parts you want to end up with..

Thanks for the tips, I will add that one of the files I was having problems with being larger that the actual 703mb disc had an actual size 738mb, as this can always be confusing.

I used WinRAR on one and it dropped it from 704mb to 695mb, which was a quick fix. Problem is it now has to be extracted to be watched which takes about 10 minutes. It also dumps a temp file onto the system while running.

If its a program or game its NOT over 700MB even though it may say that its NOT. use the burn image option in all software and you will see its under 700MB...the extra MB came when the ISO or BIN was made

Thanks for the info.

Tried "Easy Video Splitter". Although a simple interface, it didn't work - on three different movies in both automatic & manual mode. The first time got an error message (error in "CHECK2.DLL"); the second attempt only gave half a movie (what happened to the other one? who knows?); the third time, the second half's audio & video was out of synch.

So I'll try one of the other ones.

the simple'st way is to use roxio easy cd 6

ie-you wan't to burn 800mb/1gb/10gb/more, of movie's or any type of data to cd that only have 703mb of space.so you can transport to a another computor or keep as back up


install roxio easy cd/dvd 6 go to creator classics and follow the instruction's

you can create multiple disc's (AS MANY AS YOU NEED)

BUT REMEMBER THE OTHER COMPUTOR MUST HAVE ROXIO EASY CD/DVD 6 TO
COMPILE THE DISC'S INTO THERE ORIGINAL FORMAT
