You are talking about 1 cd but at the end you are talking about your dvd. What did you do and please post the *.log files.

sorry i don't have the log files but what i ment is that i am trying to make a movie on one cdr 800mb.
now when i said dvd i ment the dvd player not the media.
and the question is how can i decied when i can make a single cdr movie insted of 2 and how to do it ?

[VIPER_1069]

for a full length movie of 1 hr + it will simply NOT fit one cdr not without MAJOR SERIOUS COMPRESSION which would render the quality UN WATCHABLE

2 disk is the norm for MPEG 2 quality which is usually pretty good picture and sound

the other alternative is to get an XVID/DIVX compatible player and convert to AVI and get a whole movie on just one disk

but as DVDRW burners are pretty darn cheap along with the media THEN WHY struggle to cram stuff on a cdr at all !?
