Is there a way to tell how big the video will really be ?

I'm encoding an avi without audio and I haven't found a way to predetermine the final video size.

Seems like this programm is still keeping some space free for the audio,
the problem is THERE IS NO AUDIO !!!!

I just want the video to have a certain size.

Tried some bitrate calculators but it didn't work

Any suggestions ?

Select the lowest audio bitrate?

I guess it will waste the least amount of space.

Got it
In case somebody else ever wants to do this:
It doesn't matter which bitrate you select for the audio.

As in every other case you need to chose a bitrate calculator
and enter the lenght, audio quality, and the expected final size.
The only thing about the calculator thats important is that final size of video and audio are shown seperatly.

Once you found such a calculator your almost done, just arrange the video to become 20 MB larger than you want it ( don't know why but it works ) transfer the size in the bitrate table and thats it.
