DivX Author - DVD Output
Hi - I'm new to using DivX Author and am wondering if anyone can provide an answer to this question please:
In DivX Author I load 3 files that have already been converted in DivX Converter to DivX movie files.
According to my pc the total size of these three files is 3, 175mb and yet when I try to output the files in DivX Author it reports an output size of 4,639 mb.
Can anyone suggest why this is please?
Thanks in advance for your input folks
Cheers

Yes, if you create a menu it
Yes, if you create a menu it would increase the size of the file. Please have it check. - Steven Delarge
DIVX authoring
Have combined a number of files into a single video using authoring but when I go to play the main video on the TV it does not show the various chapter and menu that I created.... am I missing a step somewhere when creating the DIVX video file
@Deanchester
that´s why the divx author dosn´t make a direct stream copy. he always recode.
I recommend for putting movies to one file: virtual dub! jump to video-menu, select "direct stream copy", and choose output! But there are no menus available...
If you have the original (non-divx,-xvid) files such as *.VOB *.mpeg or stuff you can import it into the Author and he will manage that :-)
output size
Did you create a menu? That would increase the file size.
