Jeigh1405241495 0 Report post Posted June 27, 2005 ...what quality video is it that you could fit 4 movies onto one cd? Or do you mean like 4 seperate clips..? I mean I''ve seen some crazy video compression utilities that saved most of the quality of the video...but 4 full length movies on a cd is insane so I'd guess the quality would be *BLEEP* at best...

Herbert1405241469 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2005 Using the DIVX bitrate calculator, if you had 8 hours (4 two hour movies), and you had the audio compression set at 32 kbps (bearable), the max you could use for video bitrate is 162 kbps, which would look like crap unless your movie size was about 128x100 or so Actually, I just did a short test using that and it looked good if nothing was moving, but as soon as there was movement, the compression became unbearable.

madcrow 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2005 Yeah, 8 hours of video on a CD is not going to look nice. I've gotten 4 hours to look nice though, at least at 320x240... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
warbird1405241485 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2005 I tried it, and it looks terrible. Maybe I did something wrong but it was to horrible to look at . Maybe you guys can do it better, but I can't -=Jeroen=- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wykked_dreamz 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2005 Maybe it could be useful to transfer movies from one computer to another, otherwise I don't see the point in taking all that time coverting and transfering 4 movies on one cd. If you're going to watch the mvie on the computer then watch it on the computer you have it on, otherwise you're going to need to burn onto a dvd-r in order to watch it on either other format. still, if you were transfering the movies, I don't know how the quality would come out. From the others, it seems pretty bad, but it looks like you have an awesome computer or you're doing something that we aren't because you said best quality.

Grafitti 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2005 i tried a freeware program called RATdvd, which compresses about four or five DVDs onto one DVD. the format is proprietary, but all you need to do is install the player and hook up your laptop to your tv or projector. then if you want to convert back to normal dvd format, the program can do that as well. it's great for space saving. there's of course a loss of quality, but not as bad as the other programs you've been mentioning.

m3moreX 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2005 Like alsmot everyone said, I don't think the quality would be great. One movie is about 4/5 gigabytes, so imagine 4 in a 800 megabyte CD. Insane... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeigh1405241495 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2005 Even if you are talking of compressing 4 700ish mb divx movie rips onto one cd it would seem a tad bit cramped for room Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
