Q: What should I use to compress this video, but keep the quality?
Re:Your not going to get it down that much without losing quality. Look for auto gordion knot. It is a compilation of programs that is in one package. Super simple. I prefer xvid but i am having difficulty finding standalone dvd players for it.
Re:perhaps spanning a few 700MB is ok… perhaps he just wants it to fit on a CDR because perhaps he only has a CD burner… *shrug*

Yeah i wouldn't plan on getting 4gigs down to 700mb. Use virtual dub. heres a guide from Doom9

Re:xvidcore-1.0.2.zip
and a piece of software that will recompile video files.
Adobe Premier
or
VirtualDub
(I like virtualdub)
Re:can someone walk me through the steps?
I visited doom9.org but it wasn't clear which software to download to use with xvid 
Re:Xvid became awesome when it hit version 1 anyways. Use it, love it. Or you could always try the new version of 3ivx but I'm not sure if there is a cost involved in encoding with it.
Re:So just use XviD then.

There is a free version of DivX as well, alternatively, you could use XviD, which is also free.
Check out www.doom9.org
There is a free version that lets you author to DiVx? I dabbled very lightly in Premier Pro a little a few months ago, and I never saw anything with DiVx that was free. I'm no pro at this stuff, so I probably shouldn't have even replied to this thread 
. I may check out that site as well.

IIRC, the free version puts the Divx logo in the bottom corner of the video, so basically there's no free version if you want to author videos.
