file size

[vamp1re]

I just did my first rip using gordian knot.

Its a 2 cd rip and both files are exactly 891mb

Unless by some freak occurance i got the halfway point spot on (i didnt look at time)

I was wondering how they got so big? I have the cd size set as 700mb

im pretty sure it has something to do with the way i add the audio..

I add it as a mix (just before burning and its in ac3 --- or whatever it isformat)

perhaps thats y? and if so how do i make sure my next rip stays under the 700mb mark?

i'm guessing you're new.....

when burning (S)VCDs, you can fit a max of 800 MB on a 80 min CD-R. actually, with (S)VCD overhead..you can prolly fit ~795 MB per CD-R....

(S)VCDs are burned in mode 2, which allows for the extra space, mode 1 burning for data/audio only allows the standard 700 MB per 80 min CD-R.

u need to use nero's (S)VCD template

sorry i shoudl have explained better..


im actually ripping them straight to avi

so then i can put them on cd(s) .for backup purposes

(not so i can play them with a dvd player etc just for the pc)
