Hi,

I'm having trouble fitting a full season of episodes on a single DVD5. 13 Episodes x 349 MB per xvid/divx encoded episode is just slightly too big to fit. I thought about editing a few of the episodes to cut out the credits but is there an easier way to do it?

You can try overburning.
But you should cut the titles off... use Virtual Dub for this, easy and simple Smile


About Hitman: Movie (2007)
Vin Diesel is a hardcore gamer, and absolutely loves the Hitman series. For that reason I have faith that he wont destroy the movie.

Response: Well, Uwe Boll probably loved the Alone in the Dark games.

Shoot, I was hoping there was a solution similar to dvdshrink. Something that I could use to shrink an iso file with all 13 episodes in it. Guess virtual dub it is then.

You can use : Ashampoo Movie Shrink & Burn 2 it's really great tool if you want to resize the avi's to fit them into one dvd. You can select files and set max size for them. It's quite fast and easy.

Get it from : http://www.ashampoo.com/internet/shareware/0137.htm

why dont u use dvdshrink?
ive done the same thing, made an oversized DVD with a series on and shrunk it.

depending on what DVD authoring software u use cant it output vobs?
but even if it only outputs iso's
then unpack the iso (winrar) to get the VIDEO_TS folder
then shrink it with DVDShrink.

The best thing you can do is just cut of the credits with virtualdubmod, this way you don't loose any quality compared to reencoding your videofiles so they are smaller. Cutting of the credits is faster and doesn't degrade the quality of the file and besides, how many times do you watch the credits of a show anyway?

Dvd Shrink dosn't work to well with divx/xvid video so this is not an option

ah he is talking about just fitting them on
and not "converting" them to DVD?

sorry understood it the wrong way thought he was converting them
and therefore they would have been mpeg2 vobs in a DVD structure
which he could then use dvdshrink.

if you want a solution to all of these problems, buy a DVD-Player that supports DivX/XviD...
i bought one for my Projector... i download many series in HRHD, burn them to a dvd, and boom, you have yourself a DAMN easy way to watch divx/xvid on your tv..
