Putting a movie on a disk?

okayy i kno how to do it


but my question is


if the disk only holds 80 minutes


and a movie is like 140 minutes


will it cut it off, or will it say it cant burn it cuz its long?



I see you're burning on normal CDs in either VCD or SVCD format. This 80 minutes on the CD are only for audio files, More precisely when you burn an Audio CD. For the case of an mp3 CD it's max 700 mb, since it can be considered as data, and the same goes for the VCD films: gotta be under 700 mb. If it's not then it just won't let it burn normally, so in that case it won't cut off any part of it. But if you convert a film that's more than 2 hours long like yours to VCD format, for fitting the 700 mb, the quality might be so bad, that the movie can become unwatchable. You should split the file and burn it into two discs (if you're converting with WinAvi you can easily do that in the Advanced options).


Remember if the file is under 700 mb, the film will be on the disc in its entirety, no matter how long it is.




You won't be able to burn it, if it doesn't fit.
