I tried once to encode an .avi file into SVCD with toast 6, but (aside being slow), it generated an output much larger in size than the original. I think it shouldn't, but maybe I'm missing something. I tried again as VCD, still file size was slightly bigger than the original.
Basically I wanted to squeeze a 800+ megs file into a CD, which I think was the goal of the original poster? Also never heard of mini-dvd. cheers, gianfranco > > Does Toast actually do "mini-dvd" or "SVCD" burns? > > Hang on....I've got the Toast 5.x manual here somewhere... > > ...crap, the manual's spine has broken in my hands...fine bit of binding > there :-( > > Just normal VCD by the look of it....which I tried once and gave up with > because it was soooo slow to encode on my B&W and the picture quality > was...errr...not very good to put it mildly.
