MPEG Compression help

[JasonQuinn1992]

I'm using ReJig to compress some MPEG files. After I put them back together using TMPGEnc and covert the files I'm noticing that the file size is barely decreasing. Am I doing something wrong In either program? Please explain this too me.....


Thank you!

The only thing you are accomplishing is further RUINING the clips you originally captured by
1) Not listening:

2) Re-encoding these clips over and over and over again. Every time you re-encode you are killing the original
"questionable" quality of your original capture(since you did not listen to my "recapture to MPEG2" and DVD can ONLY
be MPEG2" advise.

AND....all you are doing is confusing yourself even more by starting new threads with the same exact subject.
