I have 3 CD svcd set for a movie the trouble is 2 of them are to large to fit on a CD-R even with overburn. How can I reduce the size they are about 25 MB to big.

Bigger CDs? 80min is de facto nowadays.

Very weird. Are you 100% sure you've tried to burn them using SVCD mode, not data mode?

What do you mean by "not viewable"?

You need to understand the fact that VCD.cfm" class="forum_link" target="_blank">VideoCD and SVCD are _not_ burned as data CDs, but they have their own particular format how they're burned -- just like audio CDs (you probably know, that by creating a data CD and dropping WAV files into it doesn't play in the CD player).

Look at our articles for guides how to burn VCD and SVCD with Nero -- you end up with a disc which looks like (when viewed with PC) that it has 5-6 dirs, most of them empty and with one or two huge .dat files. Those .dat files are the video files and if your stand-alone DVD player support VCD (or SVCD, depends on your case), just simply insert the CD in and it plays.

By no viewable I mean you can watch about 3-4 min then the picture has many different colored blocks all over and the sound is distorted
