    Hello,

    I have just converted a DIVX file to MPEG2 using TMPGEnc

    I then exracted the audio from the DIVX to a wav file using Gold Wave, then converted the wav file to AC3 using besweet.

    So now i have a video and audio file

    The video file is 4.30Gb

    The audio file is 271Mb

    When i use TMPGEnc DVD Author to make the DVD it says theres not enough room on the disk, i am using 4.7Gb DVD-R disks.

    How can i make it fit ?

    Cheers

    a 4.7GBb DVD doesn't hold 4.7 GB of data, only holds something like 4.33 so you need to reduce the size of your video, audio, or both

    Finish it off with TMPGnc DVD Author then shove it through DVD Shrink, then burn to disc. Easy

    Doesn't 4.30Gb + 271Mb = 4.57GB?

    As steveryan said author your video and audio in TMPGenc DVD Author , it will probably give you a warning about nonstandard DVD or something like that , click ignore or continue antway and complete the authoring stage.
    Then open your VIDEO_TS folder in DVD Shrink and let it shrink the folder to fit a DVD-R.

    It wouldn't matter if your video was 2GB oversize it would work fine that way.

    The reason you had a 4.3GB video + you audio in the first place is that you didn;t calculate your video bitrate correctly in the first place. Have a look at this guide to see how to do it correctly.
