Conversion mpg files to avi

[eymajai]

Using Virtual Dub V.1.5.9, I have converted an mpg file of 799.713 KB to avi format and I am surprised by the fact that the extension of the new file is 46,6 GB.

What can I do to obtain an avi file of about 800 KB?

Everything you need is to select codec (to compress your video) and to set a proper bitrate...
