    no need to overburn if you are burning a VCD, as they are burned in MODE2. 80min/700MB CDs will hold 800MB in MODE2.

    It will depend on your drive and media.

    You can generally overburn up to a minute fairly reliable on most media. 15 MB is about 1.5 minutes so it will depend on your actual disc.

    You could always play it safe and use 90min media...

    Regards.
