Hello  agaion everyone,
I once again need some help. I have a large mpg file that  I want to 
burn on disk but it is 1:17:45 minutes long (775 mb)and there is  not 
enough space on the disk to burn it, is there any way I can shrink the  
file to fit on the disk without distorting  it?

Thanks,
Cindy





Hi Cindy:
 
Since I am not sure you got any help with your question I'll try
a reply.  I do not ever do any compression so I'm the last guy
you should listen to. This is just an observation.  Remember 
mpg's are already highly compressed.
 
 
I checked a small folder of my Pictures and in properties it showed
the folder contained 732 MB of pictures.  Then I right clicked  the
desktop, then selected new, then selected "compressed ZIP folder"
An empty ZIP folder was created on my desktop.  Then I dragged
the 732 MB picture folder into the ZIP folder and checked the
properties there.  The ZIP folder was down to 512 MB.  I  opened
the ZIP folder and the pictures still look ok.
 
I probably have ZIP loaded on my PC somewhere and I might need
ZIP to view the folder.  WINZIP is an easy download.  On doing a  search,
I find WINZIP all over my PC.  This may be all you need.......  
 
Hope this helps.
 
 
Emile
