Hi,
I wonder if there is a way to burn a file that is slightly too big.
E.g. putting a file of 710MB on a 700MB cd.
The last 10MB being lost by this operation would not bother me too
much as it's a divx.
Bad idea. Really bad idea. Divx files contain an important data
structure at the end of the file (an index of the data blocks).
Without this data, you will not be able to seek in the video.
Some software video players will be able to re-index the file but
this takes a lot of time. I don't know if hardware players will even
be able to play the file.
You should try to overburn the CD, an additional 10MB of data should
fit on it without problems. In K3b, go to: Settings->Configure K3b,
Select the "Advanced" tab in the "Writing" section, and check the
"Allow overburning" option. Alternatively, cut part of the video with a video
editor. I don't
know any good ones for Linux, but you could try virtualdub on
Windows. It might even work with Wine.
As another alternative, get a DVD burner.
This is what I will probably do...
Thanks to you and also to Eric for your suggestions,
Yves

I have not found a way to do this with k3b... is
there maybe a way
using cdrecord directly?
Thanks and regards,
Yves
