How to make these Avi files fit to Burn

[jkraze]

Hi, I'm new to this whole scene, I downloaded some exercise videos (.avi), that I'de like to share with some friends. However some are too big to fit on a normal disc, Ive tried using windows movie maker to cut the beginning and ending short, but the saved file has audio and no picture. What program could I use to either A. compress the file (theyr about 850mb need under 700) or B. Edit the clips so I can cut them into two halfs? thanks! Also my version of Nero does not have any editing tools although it claims to

You could use DVDs instead of CDs, and put 4 to a disc. Otherwise you can use AVI Demux to trim the clips down and save them without re-encoding. Or you can re-encode the whole file to make it smaller with AVI Recomp.
