Convert/Burn video file into DVD

commander · 06-30-2007, 04:48 AM

Hi, I am trying to burn a file by the format filename.DVDRip.XVid into DVD using Video Studio Software.

There are two problems that I encountered:

1. The file appears to be 700MB but when I drag it to burn using Video Studio Software, it appears to be more than a few gigabytes? May I know why and how do I remedy?

2. Whenever I use Video Studio Software, how do I determine if I require to "Convert Video File" before I use the "Create Disc" Option? or simply go stright to "Create Disc" Option will do?

Thank you.
