I don't think this is realistic... you are trying to reduce the file |
| 9 |
size by over 98% and want 'good quality' as well? |

I don't see quite how that is going to happen, A standard DVD can be |
| 12 |
reduced to the size of 1 CD (700 MB) or half that (350-400 MB) using |
| 13 |
Xvid or Divx, but that's still 4-7x bigger than what you're trying to |
| 14 |
get from the more-or-less same size starting point, and to even do that |
| 15 |
much you have to make some sacrifices (like removing menus and extras, |
| 16 |
which is essentially ripping out data from the original file by the |
| 17 |
handful, or reducing image size, which may affect quality). |

Is this 100MB a strict limit on the final file size (if you even can do it, |
| 20 |
it's going to be the size of a postage stamp, though possibly the most |
| 21 |
beautiful postage stamp ever seen)? Is all the data in the original file |
| 22 |
strictly necessary? |
