Get XviD codec: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video ... s/xvid.cfm

Then get VirtualDub: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video ... ualdub.cfm

Install XviD codec and Extract VirtualDub with Winrar anywhere you want.

1. Open VirtualDub go to File --> "Open video file..." and select the file you want to compress.
2. Go to Audio check that "Source audio" and "Direct stream copy" are selected if you are not planning to use external audio source.
3. Go to Video check that "Full processing mode" is selected.
4. Go to Video --> "Compression..." and select XviD MPEG-4 Codec.
5. Click configure and check that "Profile @ Level" is set to "AS @ L5" and that "Encoding type" is set to "Single pass".
6. Select the compression rate with slidebar or by typing a value to "Target quantizer"
7. Click OK, Click OK again in the next window
8. Go to File and choose "Save as AVI..."
9. Type the name of your file and click save
10. Wait (it takes some time depending on your compression rate, how long the video file is and how fast your computer is)

You get better result with "Encoding type" set to "Two pass" but it takes more time and you need to do more configuration.
If you want to use "Two pass" you need XviD Bitrate calculator: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video ... ulator.cfm

If you want I can make you a tutorial on using "Two pass"
