Shrink a slightly-too-large SVCD MPG

[hockey2112]

I have 2 SVCD MPGs that are slightly too large to burn onto a CDR. Is there any way that I can fit each movie on its own CDR, without demultiplexing it and cutting it? Can I re-encode it to shrink it a little, or would that be the same amount of trouble? The exact file sizes are 835,612,792 and 835,596,524. Nero says they are too large to fit on a disk. Thanks for any help.

Use 90" CDRs...

And activate overburn on Nero, for at least 90"...

File -> Preferences -> Expert Features -> Activate Overburn... and time...

Test if your CDRW burner alow overburn, see here in vcdhelp...

And make one SVCD, and test in your DVD Player...

My BTC CDRW 16x10x40x alow overburn for 90+" and my DVD Player, Mustek v562, read without problems 90" CDRs...

Sorry my english

If you don't want to use larger discs you might demux the files, encode the audio with a lower bitrate and mux again.

What program would I use for that? Is there a tutorial for it that you know of? I know my burner does not support overburn; that would be too easy .

demux with tmpeg's mpeg tools demultiplex. youll get an mp2.
Use the beesweet GUI for converting to a lower bitrate mp2
And yeah mux it back with the mpeg with tmpeg

Just burn it. Use VCDEasy instead of Nero. Had several that size that looked like they may not fit, but they work fine on an 80 min CD-R with overburn.

Can I burn an MPG SVCD with VCDEasy, or does it require bin/cue? If it does require bin/cue, how can I make my SVCD MPGs into bin/cue files?

You may burn them with VCDEasy. If the burning function of it doesn't work for you (for me, it doesn't...) you can still easily create bin/cue files with it which you can use afterwards in Nero or a burner of your choice to burn.
