Unneeded Bytes At The End Of DivX Video

[kinlunyu]

Hi,

I have converted a MKV video (1980x1080, 4.37GB) to DivX using River Past Video Cleaner Pro v7.2. I use 1-pass quality base and fixed quantizer = 2.5. I got a big DivX file (9.22GB). I used GSpot to check the file. In the Container Box, there is a line shown "Note: 4.24GB unneeded bytes at the end of file.". Why the conversion application append the unnneed bytes. How can I prevent the unneed byte to be appended? How can I remove the unneeded bytes from the converted video? The quality of converted video is very good and I can affortable if the file size is around 5.0 GB. Thanks.

I don't remember the software I used but I converted a file to AVI once that created the same file three times into one AVI. I used Virtualdub to find the beginning and end of the first movie and Direct Stream Copied into a file that was 1/3 the size of the original converted AVI. Not sure why the software created the movie three times into one file but it did.
