Easiest way I've found if you don't want to re-encode to use the remaining 598megs of space, is to use VirtualDub.

There are guides for this sort of thing though.
Will have a quick look...

ps- If you do want to re-encode have a look at the GordianKnot 'sticky' guide in the DivX conversion/encoding forum.

Reencoding at a higher bitrate wont, give you better quality. And of course you can't use GordianKnot to reencode avi files.

Use VirtualDUB or nandub to cut the file. Remenber that avi-files can only be cut at keyframes (use the buttons with the yellow arrows to jump from keyframe to keyframe). For a 702 MB-movie it might be good to use a bigger cd-r. Many 700-MB-cd-r's can store 702 MB or more. Or you cut of the end credits and reencode the audio with a lower bitrate to reduce the filesize to 650 MB.

whoops!
Of course you're right khp- i meant to re-encode from the vobs...
