• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Hey, I need some quick help.

I have 11 videos at roughly 10 seconds each. I also have a video that is 6 minutes long. All of these video at their current state are DV NTSC, normal DV video size of 720x480, sound is 48khz. If simply saved as quicktime movie, the long video is over a gigabyte. For DVD I have no issue, because it'll fit, but I need it compressed to fit on a CD and also need a version of it compressed for the web (most likely incorporated into an eLearning Flash thing).

What do the video compressions out there suggest?? Please help, thanks.
