800MB on a 700MB CD can't be done! Well as far as i know!

The most i've ever seen is 720MB! They do make 800MB CD's, but you'll have to get them from an online store as they aren't forsale is stores yet! Do a search on google for 800MB cd's!

If you are going to put it on 2 CD's then i would re-do the vid so it's 1,400,000 why waste the space! That is if you were the one to encode it, if not then you could re-encode it to 700MB! If that's not and option then try to find the 800MB cd's online!

Hope this helps good luck!

mohame,overburning a video file might cause QPs (Quality Problems) at the end and start of the movie. Even worst than that - overburning might damage your recorder and even ruin it.
So I use 780 MB CDs (yes, they exist) for movies, 780 MB CDs can contain 90 minutes. Though not all recorders support 700+ MB CDs. So buying a 800 MB CD could be a waste of money.
So if you make a data CD- burning a 800 MB movie file isn't recommanded. But if you burn (s)VCDs it mostly counts the minutes ( I say that because I encoded a movie to VCD(MPEG1) which was the size of about 830MB and burnt it on a 780 MB CD. I used Nero Burning Romm, which said it can only overburn if I finalize the CD, and so I did. The weird thing is that the Nero calculated it to be less than 830 MB, but anyway it works.
It is a little bit of a risk. But as I use a 90 minutes CD I take the chance and it works well.
