Maybe give some free advice about: Computers?

theymos answered Thursday January 24 2008, 5:55 pm:
When you burn to a DVD, the file is converted to MPEG-4, which drastically increases the size of the data. You will not be able to put that file on the disk in that way. If you select the "data" mode on a DVD burner such as Infrarecorder, the file will not be converted to MPEG-4 before burning and it will fit. However, the disk will only play on computers, it will not play on DVD players.
