Hello,
I have the following question:
I understand that the index of a avi file is located at the end of the file,
but how large is it?
The reason I ask is the following:
I'm trying to make a 704 mb movie, into a 700 mb movie, to make it fit on a
cdrom without overburning. I used the split program for that, like this:
split -b 700m movie.avi. The result is a 700mb-movie.avi. So far so good.
After that it needs a new index, so I do:
mencoder -idx 700mb-movie.avi ovc copy -oac copy -o movie-fixed.avi.
You don't believe it, but the movie-fixed.avi is again 704 mb :-(.
How come?

Cheers,
Jeroen
