Er, hello.... 80min CD's ?


The groups that encode the DivX's specifically encode them to fit on those CD's. They fit absolutely fine with no overburning necessary, believe me I've burned hundreds

Just get 80min CD's and burn it as it is


The CD's are 700MB, and the files are usually 699MB.

You are reading the KB filesize, which shows as more...
716,090KB for example, is the filesize in my windows explorer window of this particular file, but when highlighted the sidebar says 699

80min CD's have a capacity of around 730,000k afaik...

This may be right/wrong explanation wise, but the bottom line is, all DivX files fit on 1 CD, because that is in the guidelines followed by the people that release them.
