I have Windows Media Edition, which records TV. I recorded a show, converted it to MPEG2, and it is 5.33 GB @ an hour and 40 minutes. My disks have capacities of 120 minutes and it says its still to big. any help..

btw, my disks have 4.7gb space, but shouldnt they still burn a 1:40 since it goes up to 2:00

*i converted to MPEG2 please not, incase that makes a dif =/ (i converted because recorded shows are name.dv-ms)

You say the file is 5.33 GB and you're trying to burn to a cd that holds 4.7 GB--that could be (and is) the problem. Just because they say 2 hours, doesn't mean 2 hours of any format. I suggest you find a different compression scheme or break the show into two cds. 5.33 GB for one hour and forty minutes seems pretty big; look into OGG video filters. Hope this helps.
