the companies make such movie cd.... so as to limit piracy..
any way...
actually a cd is 700 MB for data...and 80 mins for movie
forget the size of the movie if it's below 80 mins then..it can be written on the cd...
i have seen movie cd having 82 mins of video and showinf 876 MB just imagine...
what u have to do is to check whether the *.dat file is below 80mins or not...
if it is below 80 mins them ...
open nero and select video-video cd..
and in the fiel selection menu select the dat fiel ...your job is done...
but if the *.dat file is larger than 80 mins then remove the waste part of the movie say the starting introduction shots or the ending titles....
u can use any software like vcd cutter most easily available ie...for cutting the movie file...
i hope that solves the prob pm me if u want to ask any mroe...or ofcourse u can ask here in this thread...
