[crapmike]

i´ve just downloaded a mpeg file and its file size is 725,662 kb and i want to burn it to a cd

what can i do?
please help me

As long as its in VCD format, you shouldnt have a problem burning it.... if its not in the correct format then check out VCD Help or Doom 9 for a walkthrough on how to convert it.

Then, assuming that you have Nero and its a VCD, follow this little walkthrough i grabbed from another site:

--Start Nero and the wizard will run.
--Choose COMPILE NEW then OTHER FORMATS then VIDEO CD.
--Drag the MPEG into the compilation window. Nero will check the file to make sure it's the right format.
--Click the burn button and you're done!
(sometimes I get an error or the VCD won't play. Just try burning another one - it usually works the second time. Choosing "Test and Burn" generates less coasters that burning without the test.)

[For you technophiles, the MPEG files must be WhiteBook compliant system streams (i.e. multiplexed, with a video bit rate of 1,151,929.1 bits/sec and an audio bit rate of 224 kbit/sec).]

Your VCD's will be at least TWICE the size of the file you are converting so Beware. Nero also has a VCD plug-in you can use.If you ant to rip from the DVD to a VCD direct you can go to my website under the DivX help.

I came up with a farly easy way of converting. Good luck.

the file i converted was 725,662 kb (original file size) and nero reduce it to 600 - 650 kb., so it worked o.k. and thanks for the link i´ll check it out
