HELP

[BobtheBuilder]

I downloaded David Copperfield's Illusion of his major performances including the disappear of the Oriental Express, walking through the Great Wall, etc.

Now I want to burn into a CD so that I can send to my mom as she loves these shows a lot. I can't burn onto a 700MB CD as the file is over 720MB.

Is there anyway that I can do,shrink the file a bit, without jeopardizing the quality of the show? Also, prefer to keep the techie part to the minimum, as Mom is not a computer savvy.

Thanks a million. I already see some TZ sharpening their knives, so I turn the floor to you now.

if this is the case, you may try to "overburn" CDs by using some popular CD burning software, such as Nero.

Just simply enable the 'overburn" option, as indicated in the following picture. Normally 20-30MB overburn is allowed.

Good luck!

Just checked, my enable... was actually ticked all along.

Tried again anyways, didn't have any luck. Thanks, A Fan.

you r very welcome.

just out of curiosity, did you put a larger number in the box below the "enable" option, say from 82mins -- 87mins?

As a matter of fact, it does say 82 mins, maybe I should try with a higher number?

Just checked the original show, it's 1h57min. Much higher than 87.

BTW, BMO's 4.19 was gone since a couple days before Christmas. The best is 4.79 now. Sucks.
