Well, here I am again with a bunch of great quality Xvids that are all VBR. Damnit! These bastards are tough to do anything with. The problem is, I want them all to fit on one DVD, and I'm running over the limit by about 100M. (I might be able to get away with 50M, if I overburn) There are 13 files. What's the best way to shave a bit off of a few without degrading the quality too bad? I've been trying several things, but always end up with lower quality video, so it seems. I wish I could just trim the start and end of a few of these, but that seems to cause audio sync problems. Man, why do people keep encoding VBR's?! They absolutely suck to work with!

Is there some automatic program people use that does that?
