I have a .avi file that is 7.68GB. It is only a 38 minute movie. Does converting it to MPEG2 reduce the file size? How can I find a disk large enough to hold the file???

Hi-
Does converting it to MPEG2 reduce the file size?
How can I find a disk large enough to hold the file??? -
Whatever a good bitrate tells you to use. You can find a list of them here : https://www.videohelp.com/tools/sections/bitrate-calculators
I like VideoCalc, but the VideoHelp online calculator is very good.Read my blog here.

You should be able to get a good quality 38 minute AVI file in under 350 MB. Excellent quality about 700 MB or so. The quality is better than the same size MPEG2. -
This is not DVD Authoring. Moving you to Newbie Conversion. And Please, steve7510, in the future, just ask the question in one forum. This is close enough to https://forum.videohelp.com/topic331467.html#1716478 to be considered a double post, which is in violation of our rules. Please read our rules before posting.
