I have a downloaded movie which I've converted to .avi. It's 748 mb.
Yet when I try to burn it to a blank 4.7gb DVD, on Windows DVD maker,
I'm told there's not enough space on the disk. Huh?

Huh? ======================================== Video DVD is not about file size...it's about duration. As a general rule...you can fit one hour of high quality video on a 4.7 GB DVD blank. If your software has an option for Best Fit or similar...you may be able to burn a longer movie. >> Stay informed about: DVD maker confusion
