What's the size without audio?

I noticed that the audio is mono, maybe that's the problem. If that's indeed the problem try to add the same mono channel (resulting in a stereo channel with two identical channels). This can be done with Besweet or AviSynth.

Please tell us the solution, maybe someone has or will have the same problem !

Thanks!

it was quite simple: the reason for the very big file was the audio, it had bad format, AC3 i think. i put my avi into virtualdub and clicked on save wav. then i opened tmpg, loaded my avi and as audio, i took the wav from virtualdub. that was all
