Video File Too Big to Burn?

[Locutus]

The mpeg (vcd) I made is 786 MB big. This should normally fit on a 80 min CD-R.
But if I try to burn it with Nmero as as VCD it shows the file as 775MB...way too much to burn. Then I tried to make an image with VCD Easy. But the image I got is about 900MB big. Too big again.

What am I doing wrong?

theoritically, one could fit about 825 +- mb's on a 700mb cd,,,as you'd be burning in Mode2 {or should be anyhow} and if you're burning a kvcd or vcd, you;d be burning video {or audio as opposed to data, which you could get about 720mb or so with overburning}


You're file sizes are good to go---will fit on a 700mb/80min cdr.
If possible try to burn at around 8x or so.


Have a quick read thru the following guides over at vcdhelp....

I`ve read a bit further here and came to the conclusion that it must have to with the muxing.
The m1v is 698 MB (mpeg1), the mp2 is 80 MB.
What are the settings in BBMPEG to mux it, that I can put it on a 700MB CD-R(W)

No...The "Golden Rule" is: MaxMB = Minutes of Cdr Multiplied by 10.
(ie: 800Megs = 80min Cdr) (900Megs = 90min Cdr) (990Megs = 99min Cdr) ect.
That said...you may get a little more with "OverBurn" on each length of disc, depends
on Burner and individual Media.

I have the same problem but I don't have to open a new thread beacause here wasn't given an answer. So what do I do to mux the file right. My mpg is ~785MB but after making an image with vcdeasy it goes ~885. I think it's related to the autopadding. Here's what vcdeasy says during the image making :

autopadding requires to insert additional 111021828 zero bytes into MPEG stream (due to 402253 unaligned packets of 402254 total)

I solved the problem by encoding the audio in 224kbps (it was 320
