Yes, my video is over 4 minutes long so it would probably be impossible. Did you send through mail or a file sharing site?

If I send it in the mail I can probably manage to fit a Lagarith on there if I downscale it. I do not have DL disks, just SL.

My hard drive is whimpering in fear over what you intend to send, Melichan.
If your AMV won't fit on a single layer DVD, there's something very wrong. I'm all about pristine video quality, but that sounds like an OCD level of effort there.

Well your Hard drive might feel better knowing when I downscale, the lagarith fits on a SL disk with plenty of space left over.The sync and quality look great to send along! My new problem? It plays perfect in every media player except VLC. *facepalm* With certain effects VLC totally skips them and just proceeds to the scene in front of the effect or gets laggy.

I will welcome suggestions. I'm starting to become unimpressed with VLC as well. Apparently VLC relies on internal codecs rather than what codecs are installed on the machine, which is a recipe for problems. I'm about to tinker with KMPlayer.
