Encoding Issue, 125 min video is 5 GB, help, how do i make it smaller?
I am using Encore and I have a 125 min video in 3 seperate mpegs that i joined in TMPGenc to make one full mpeg and its 5 GB, any advice on how i can make this smaller to fit it on one dvd?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Re-encode with a smaller bit rate, longer GOP, VFR or all three.

You could also try VBR(Varible Bit Rate) as oppossed to CBR(constant) but that’s probably what MichaelP meant by VFR.
If you are using PCM audio that takes up alot of space. You could try DolbyDigital(AC3) or MPEG1layer2.
I don’t know the nature of your project but you could have had three separate timelines with the three separate video files and instructed encore to play them one after another, this would have saved you the stiching together in TMPGenc.
Whatever works.
