    I have an Mpeg file that is just too big for DVD. Is there a way to shrink it?

    Well you have a couple of options. You could author the dvd larger than a single layer and then use dvd shrink to shrink it on the harddrive before burning.

    Or you could use Tmpgenc Dvd Author 2.0. The 2.0 version now has a built in transcoder than can take a large mpg file and shrink it before you burn the dvd.

    Another option is to use an mpeg encoder like tmpgenc and reencode it to a lower bitrate.

    You might look into ReJig just for shrinking MPEGs. It works similar to DVDShrink, but it's for MPEGs.

    Thanks
