800mb XVid to 700mb Xvid

[IrishFox]

Hey, i got a xvid movie that is 800mb, too large to fit onto a cd, and i was wondering if there was any program out there that can shrink the thing. Thanks all

You can use VirtualDub to convert the video to a lower framerate (which will make the file smaller)...

Or you could re-encode the audio to a lower bitrate and cut the intro/outro credits combined with doom9's guide of putting more then 700mb on cd (more prone to error when cd is dirty/scratched), which i would recommend as this would not effeect the overall experience of the movie as much as alternative methods.

What is the need to mux your avi to MKV first?

Just burn the avi and burn as XCD:

AVI files can easily become unreadable if only a few bytes are missing, while more enhanced containers like MKV are more error resilient here ......

I am not doubting you, but i would like to read this for myself (and evidence). Do you have a link?
