sorry he should turn on overburn and just burn it, I thought he wanted to watch it in a standalone dvd player
I was wrong, seems he just wants it on a cd as data

sorry for the fast typing. here&#39;s the problem:

i downloaded a movie from kazaa which is 720 mb in avi format. i don&#39;t really have any space in my hard drive for it, so i wanted to put the video into a cd. however, the max my cd will hold is 700mb, but my video is 720 mb. i want to make the video smaller so it can fit on the cd, in other words, compress the video file. i wanted to know what is the best software that compress my video file most efficient and speedy.

do you have nero, you need to get it http://www.nero.com and just burn it, think you might have to turn on over burn thats in the options, every movie should fit on a cdr with out splitting or compressing, when I read your post I thought you wanted to compress the avi to one disc to watch it on a standalone dvd player

You might not have to compress it at all. I recently learned that you can fit approximately 725 MB on a 700 MB CD. Don&#39;t ask me why or how it does it, I just happened to notice on the DOOM9 site that a 700 MB disk will actually take 735 MB. I&#39;ve burned several files over 700MB onto a CD using EZ CD Creator with no problem whatsoever. Give it a try, worst case is you waste a disk.
