Oversized DVD 5 ISO's

Post by Extreme »

Just installed 0.4.5, and I am still getting Oversized DVD 5 ISO's.
This was also happening with 0.4.4 as well.
Usually about (4645meg)
2 - 4 Pass, whatever, its always oversized.
They all blow out, changed this about six months ago, so I can not be sure.
Not sure if it lies with the avisynth script? with 2.5.6? 2.6.7? 2.6.8?
Could it be that the size of the audio (AC3 File) has not been taken into acount
before giving CCE the proper Meg allocation for video??

Any help would be great!
Thanks in Advance!

Hi Extreme,
I am still very new to all of this stuff, but I have had a similar problem with my ISO's being up to 8GB! I had a look in previos posts and a suggestion was made to use a porgram called DVD Shrink to resize the ISO file. I have this program but haven't tried it yet as I deleted the files that were too big to fit onto a DVD5 disc. DVD Shrink can be downloaded for free. I'm converting a new file now to try. I hope this solution worksfor both of us.

Ok, I didn't get the chance to try DVD Shrink. Upon further reading in the forums someone else suggested that you delete the whole Avi2DVD_temp folder before starting a new job. I tried it and lo & behold it worked! I now delete the temp file after each burn and the new ISO files fit onto a DVD 5 disc. Hope this solves your problem too.
