I've gotten to the part about setting the bitrate, but it wont let me lower the average video bitrate past 2000, and the file takes up WAY too much space (153.5%) How can I fix this?
Thanks in advance.

What is it you are trying to do exactly?
What are you converting
and what will you be doing with the file after converting
DVD, VCD ect??
for your computer or stand alone player?

Its an .AVI file (about 690 MB) which I want to put on a DVD to be played on a standalone player.
If you can't tell already, I'm an ultranoob.... Thanks

Ok i got ya
hey dont sweat the newb thing I was there not to long ago, you just gotta hang out here you'll learn probably more than you need :)
Anyway to help you out
Here is what I do (key word I)
I use WinAvi www.winavi.com/video-converter.htm
there is a free trial after that its $29.99 (well worth it trust me, especially for newbies) this program is a 2 click process, and will convert just about any File you throw at it (avi, mpeg, xvid ect)
I have been using it for over 3 months without a hitch
(it will save you tons of time and headaches)your choice though TMPGEnc works also but its not really for newbies
Just take your file and convert it to DVD format (like i said 2 clicks and your there)
After that you can either just burn it just like that with Nero
OR
Get something like
TMPGEnc DVD Author or MY favorite DVDLab (30 day trial)
after that there are ways of getting it hint hint...just gotta look
these programs will allow you to add menus and chapters and much more ESPECIALLY DVDLab that one is very professional
here go to www.mediachance.com and check out DVDLab and see for yourself lotsa of screenshots there
let me know if this helps you at all
Im more than glad to answer any question you have

Thank you so much. One last question.... With WinAvi, how long will it take to convert the file? Is it 20 hours like with TMPGEnc?
Thanks

Hey, WINAVI worked great, except for one thing... Is there a way to get rid of the text on the video that says "WinAvi video converter"? that appears in the middle of the screen when you play the movie?

Also, I've tried the program out on both my computer and my room mate's, and it works fine on my room mate's (except for printing "WinAvi video converter" on the video) but on mine, it reverses the image of the video. It looks like you're watching it through a mirror. Whats going on?
