DVD is to big

[Dement]

Okay, I figured out how to convert into DVD format but it seems that everytime I try and burn the movie to a DVD the fies are about 1-3 megs to large. I'm not using a menu or anything to add size. Is there anyway to make the files smaller?

In this thread (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?s=&threadid=62608/), jggimi pointed you to some of Doom9's guides and it appeared as if you were going to do an AVI->DVD conversion. Is this the case? If so, please let us know which conversion procedures you're using and your burning application. A little more information will go a long way. :)

Just by guessing... (Don't have much exp. with DVD-MPEG2 !)
When it's only 1-3 MB to big, maybe the prog. you use, doesn't take the file-overhead in its calculations ???

Max file size for a dvd-r is 4706074624 bytes. U can easily drop 5 meg if u chop off 30 secs or so from the credits to solve the problem for now.

To avoid it in the future u have to elaborate on your procedure so we can provide a helpful solution.
