Recently I downloaded a rar file which contains a video. The amazing thing is that the size of rar file is only 571 KB but when I extract the video from it, the size of video is 52.7 MB. I m very surprised to see that how a video can be compressed so much. How can i compress any video to very small size. I have uploaded that file, here is the link:

It is only 571 KB in size.

That technique isn't very easily achieved using WINRAR.... You must have noticed that the video took a long time to Unrar.... However, I don't know of any such software to compress so agressively......

in the properties of that video file
see properties
you can see
Video Compression - MS-CRAM
search for that in google may be this is the reason for its compression

if you want to attain such results (50-500MB in few MB/KBs) with KGB Archiver, then you better have a decent PC config, atleast 1GB RAM & a good proc. (like C2D), otherwise it'll take you days to compress such files & basically its a waste of time, unless you can WAIT that long.

I got a CD few years back. It had GTA3; Soldier of Fortune and 2 more games (I dont remember them). All on 1 CD.
It took long to decompress and used MS-DOS prompt with zillions of ##es to decompress. Anyways. This sure is something!!!

I would too like to know about this . I got nfsmw dvd that had 1 rar file which was just 900 kb . but it extracted to 2+ gb . that was mini image to run the game without dvd. I tried using winrar for it . but even at it best it only reduced near 60 mb's to my file .

I don't thing it is amazing compression.Every compressor use a very basic thing that is track the repitation of data in a file.That video is a screen Capture video so the maximum part of the video repeted many time.So,normally the size decress amazingly. I use normal windows compession on it & the size is just 15mb.& for zip in normal mode size is 6.somthing mb.I think it's compresed with winrar in best mode .That's all..
