I want to take 24 episodes of Mash that r in divx format convert them to dvd and then compress them so I can get more than 6 episodes on a disk. What is a good way to do this? Thanx.

Ustop,
Below is a freebie that some recommend. You might try it as the price is correct. I would cut that do 4 episodes per disk but you might be OK w/ 6

After it is converted then use DVD Shrink to compress and either Nero or DVDDecrypter to burn
