    Help required please.

    I am currently using Ulead DVD Movie Factory 4 and downlaoding from Limewire, however, when I try to burn the film to disc (4.7) it always syas that I dont have enough room on the disc.

    What am I doing wrong? The avi files are no more than 700mb

    Are there any programmes I could buy or download?

    Your help is gratefully appreciated

    if your trying to burn them as a DVD movie that you can stick in your DVD player and play then the files probably are too big as they get converted to DVD format before being burned onto a disc and DVD format takes up a lot more space than an AVI file.. remeber each one of those AVI files was probably on one DVD each which means they would have been about 4.7Gig each before they were ripped and converted.

    try doing 1 avi file per dvd and see if it works

    Appreciate your quick response, however, I download the avi files from Limewire but I dont understand "try doing 1 avi file per dvd and see if it works"

    Ulead Movie Factory does not give me an option.

    Help a thick man please
