fitting 100min video on 80min cd, possible?

[thefuzion]

im trying to put a 100min movie on a 80 min cd using Nero 5.5. The file size is only 764mb but nero says to use a 90min cd?... can this be done?..the bitrate is 930kbps, i used the vcdhelp bitrate calc. to math it out but it still doesnt fit...

almost sounds like nero is checking the running time of the mpeg, regardless of its size. that 764mb mpeg should burn/fit fine on 80min media. i don't have that problem with nero 5.0.1.8.

anyone know how to disable that type of checking in nero 5.5? (is it the standard/compliant checkbox?)

Nero has an option to allow overburning which will pretty much allow it burn the cd even if it thinks the file is to long. I am at work so i don't have it in front of me so i cant tell you which tab this option is under but you can click through them and just look for one that mentions overburning. Also nero has a tool, again cant remember what it is called but go to start > programs > ahead > and click on not burning rom but there is a program that you can test your media to see its overbuning capabilities. Sorry I couldn't be more specific but i don't have it in front of me. Does anyone know what I'm talking about that can give better details?
