Compress DIVX/AVI files

[kmufc77]

I have some Divx/Avi fles i need to compress as they are too big/too many minutes,what program can i use please?

You could use autogk or handbrake, but it's a pointless task imo.. You'll just have worse picture quality and sound quality.

How big are the files / how long are the files and how long/big do you want them?

Files are around 700mb to 1.5gb but they are over 120mins which mean it wont fit onto a DVD

Edit:

Think ive sussed it and im buring the Files as data and not directly using Nero Vision.

You can fit 4.7GB on a DVD cant you?

Its not the space,its the amount of minutes im having issues with,im using Nero Vision and the files are well within the DVD capacity.

The problem is the files are over 120mins and a blank DVD R cant record over 120min

Well i must be doing something wrong then?

As when i use Nero Vision and the file is above 120mins but the actual size is around 700mb to 1.5gb ish,i get told there is not enough space on my blank DVDR?

I dont get it as the DVD is 4.7gb,if the file is under 120mins i can copy onto the DVD.

Ill try using some other program as mentioned above,ive not back-up things for many many years but i dont ever remember having this problem.

Thanks very much for you help.

Edit:

So all in all,i have to lower the bitrate which will of course lower the quality.

So in Nero Vision i have to change the Quality setting over 120mins,im sure this is the problem im having

Changing to long play will allow over 120mins and let me record at 180mins:






Its seems i have finally found the solution
