DVD Burning Help

[willdarby]

So I downloaded Cheetah DVD burner, but the DVD I want to burn is too big. Should I just convert all the files to a smaller size?

You could try zipping/RARing the files and then burning them, yes.

Would they play in a DVD player?

No. They would not play in a zipped or rar format. You would need to get something like DVDShrink, Nero Vision or convertxtodvd.

DVDShrink will take a file size that is for a Dual Layer DVD and shrink it down to a single layer DVD size. Convertx will do this as well. But that is for converting something like a .avi file to a DVD Format.

Ok thanks I'll give one of those a try.

Right in the Sticky Thread above this topic:

There is also some more software listed. One of those may also work for you. I just said those 3 cause i have personal experience with them and use them myself.

So does convertxtodvd burn it as well, or just convert it?

 

[KSoD]

convertxtodvd does have a VSO Burning engine that it installs to burn after it is done with the conversion.
