How to burn big file (220,000 kb) into VCD without compression?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Video CD : One Thread

I tried to burnt with nero a file (229,000 Kb) thats the same as 20 minutes. but when I tried to burnt it, it appeared approximately only 7 minutes. Why? Would it be poosible if we uncompress it?

Compression has nothing to do with it. Your burn failed for some reason. Either Nero failed during the burn or your source has an error in it that is causing only 7 minutes of it to burn. I recommend when you drag and drop your video file that you make sure before you burn that the length Nero reports is what you expect. If it is, watch Nero when burning and make sure you don't get any errors. Nero does not compress what you give it, so that's not the problem.

Please understand file size does not count on length as far as to Nero is concern. It is the time that counts.

Yeah that timing crap is gay. I have to put my movies on 2 VCD's! That's F---ing dumb! DivX size is only like 400mb! It should all fit onto one CD!

Oh...ummm...does anyone know of any VCD burning software that'll let me burn more than 80min onto a cd that goes by the size or something?

I've had a problem where i try to put an .avi file on a VCD thats less than 600MB and Nero seems to think the file is more than a Gigabyte. The bar on the bottom says that the file size goes way over the maximum limit and i don't know why.
