MPEG 4 is a very efficient, digital video compressing standard that reduces the size of MPEG 2 videos up to one eighth of its original size. Most of the video streaming media are based on this technology, such as DivX, WMV, etc. MPEG 4 is therefore the most popular technology used for

2. Insert a blank CD-R/RW into the CD- R/RW drive of your PC or any other disc burner.

3. Wr ite the MPEG 4 files onto the CD-R/RW disc by using a CD burning sof tware

4. Finish the disc and eject it.
