You will have to re-encode it using a product such as TMPGenc. See http://www.vcdhelp.com for how to do this. By the way, VOB files are the format for DVD and while 700 mb is big for a CD-R disc, it's pretty small for a DVD.

I have a clip that works on windows media player so when I try to play it on my dvd player which plays vcds it wont play it. Any idea?

TMPGenc is a rubbish application. I tried to use it several times and it kept crashing my pc. It also couldn't read more than half of the files I had, which it was SUPPOSED to. TMPGenc is HIGHLY overrated. Don't waste your money.

For converting a vob file u will need to rip out the audio first, I use dvdtoavi then use tmpge which is an excellent piece of free software to extract the video and to re introduce the audio to make an mpeg-1 file check this site for a how to guide http://www.clonead.co.uk/

This is such a bitch that I just buy the movies. Rip this, split that, encode this, mix that, screw this! Where's an all-in-one application to do this? Can't everyone just get together and make something? How about "Please select input file(s)" -click- "Please select output file size" -4gb- -click- "creating........" -ding- "Thank you for using (insert program name here)" I guess I can dream.
