I have a problem that I hope some of you might be able to help me with. Using Tmpgen DVD author I create a dvd from mpeg files. The software limits me to approx 4.4 meg. The software does however allow you to use more than the limit (for bigger capacity disc's) I create the files for burning to dvd, but on the harddrive.(like backing-up a dvd disc) The files created can be compared to a normal dvd. Normally what would happen then is that these files gets written to a dvd but for obivious reasons it wont fit to a normal disc. I then use dvd shrink and compress the dvd files to a normal size dvd disc. The question is: Is there software that will allow me to compress the raw data (for the lack of a better word) immediately into dvd format for use on a normal dvd player ??? And wont loose to much quality.
Also I newbie I hate to give advice fearing it may cause even more problems because if a lack of depth in understanding. But in the Zen world beginners mind is everything! I was using shrink to compress to one disc but now I have a copy of TMPGnc DVD author 2.5 and it will take MPEG 1 or 2 files let you easily edit and if you are going over 4.7 gigabytes it will shrink to fit and then burn. It is very easy to use and you can down load a trial version through Afterdawn.
