mpeg is already compressed. I don't think you could ever reduce it by half. Maybe a 5% reduction, but that is probably all.

Yeah, this one should go to the video forum.

Post there, and I'll tell you how to do it.

use vdub to save it as a new file and reduce the bitrate, folks in the video section should be able to help you with that.

oh yea, you could also use some tool to split it, then you could put it on two cds. or you could use an archive tool to span over multiple files.

how do you shoot the devil in the back? what happens if you miss? -verbal<P ID="edit"><FONT SIZE=-1><EM>Edited by jihiggs on 06/21/02 07:23 AM.</EM></FONT></P>
