Hi,I have a in car dvd player,I Download music videos from kazaa ect,And put them on a VCD to play in the car,I have recently purchased a dvd writer and purchsed cucusoft converter,The thing i am trying to achieve is to get a decent amount of music videos on 1 dvd,If i convert them using cucusoft them write them with nero i can still only get about 25 on?,Can anyone tell me how i can fit more videos on the dvd? I dont mind the quality as i am used to VCD now.

Send Cucusoft back their software and get a refund.
Purchase TMPGEnc and TMPGEnc DVD Author.
The only way you are going to get more stuff on a dvd, is to encode them to mpeg at a lower bitrate.
As I have NO idea how cucusoft works, I can't tell you how to lower the bitrate during encoding.
VCD is 1150kbps, so at that rate, you should be able to get a ton of stuff on dvdr.

Thanks for that ,at least thats a start,I will have to check the settings on cucusoft to see if you can change the bitrate.Ta

Great,Changed the bitrate conversion worked a treat,Can anyone recomend any decent dvd burning software,I have nero 6 but cant work out how to copy a dvd from my hard drive.

Nero is easy.
Open it, close the wizard.
Click on Recorder, Choose recorder, and select your burner.
Now click File, New.
At the top of the New Compilation box, make sure you have DVD selected.
Now click on DVD Video in the list.
Find your authored VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders, and drag them from right to left. Overwrite anything if prompted.
Burn.
If you do not have the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders, then there are other steps to take.
Let us know.
