converting image to mpeg and back

[miniboss91]

It's a long story. Anyway I have an image file( Bin and Cue) on my HD, which is a KVCD file. The size of the Bin file is 808,420 kb, which will burn to a normal blank cd, no problem. There was an audio sync problem, so I tried to fix it, by extracting the mpeg file, from the image, demuliplexing video from the audio, converting the audio .wav, then back to vcd format, then multiplexing the video back with the audio, long process. Anyway, the size of the final fixed mpeg file, was 798,863kb, the I converted it into an ISO image file. When I went to go burn it, I got a message saying it's too big to fit a standard 700mb cd. WHY!!. I worked hard on this one, please help!. Thanks.

Because it is too big to fit on a 700mb CD. Either you have a typo, and meant 800MB CD, or you need to go back and do your math again.

It may be that your burning software cannot detect the CD size correctly, and you have to tell it you are burning to 800 MB media.

How did you do the "conversion" back to ISO?
You have to author as VCD with a VCD authoring app, preferabl VCDEasy.

First, no it wasn't a typo, the discs I use are 700mb, or 80 min. 700mb=716800kb, so why does an image file that's 808,420kb =789.47mb, fit on a 700mb disc? But to try to burn a 789mb mpeg file, it doesn't work. To convert the mpeg file to an image, I used WinISO. The was no conversion of video format, all I did was separate the audio from the original video, manipulate audio only, then re-merge the audio back to the video. The file started out as an image, so I figured, I should turn it back into an image. Thanks.

Wrong. An image is just that - an image of a CD or DVD. Like a bucket, it can contain anything. Let's say you have a 10 litre bucket. You can pour 10 litres of beer into it. But let the beer stay in its bottles, and I doubt you can fit more than 8 litres in the bucket.

Again, you have to author your mpg as a VCD (using VCDEasy). That's the image type you started with. What you've created is a data CD image, and that only holds 700 MB (because of error correction and other overhead).
