Nero Burning Question
 

Greetings All,
I downloaded a movie and I burnt it to CD. I was 621MB and when Nero asked what type of project it was about to start I indicated it was a video project. As a video project, the size of the movie had ballooned to well over 800MB. Why? Rather, I burnt the movie as a Data project it was its normal size of 621MB. Why the disparity in size between the two projects? Just wondering. Thanks and cheers

I've heard of this issue, so you aren't alone. But I don't have a solution :( Sorry!

well if you tell it to create a VCD or SVCD it will recompress it to a format that DVD players can read insed of the higher compressions that is more commanly used when you find large video's online, such as divx.....

just depends on where you plan on watching them...
if on a computer it will stay smaller and have a cleaner picture if you burn as data
If you want to wach it on a your DVD player burn as either VCD or SVCD for compatability

Don't know why, but I know you can safely burn such things even when they appear larger than a CD...no need to burn as data or whatever. only when nero tells you your image/video file is too big to fit would I worry.
