| I am looking for compression software. I have a few files that are large and I would like to compress. Anyone know the best program that can do this. The program does not have to be freeware. |

| I tired WinRAR but when I compress something I have to email it to someone and I do not want to email things, I just want to compress them so that I can put them on another HardDrive. I also tried ZipGenius and I was not too impressed. I need a program that can compress video files, regular files to install large programs. Any recommendations. I will get something that needs to be bought, since my work covers it. So any suggestion will do. |

| You must be using WinRar wrong. You don't have to email, you can compress to a file and save the zip on your desktop.

| OH! Thanks, I see now. Thanks for the help, really appreciate it. Is the difference from the fastest compression method to the slowest compression method really big? Last edited by Agon : 14th Aug 2007 at 12:20 PM. |

| Depends on how much data you are compressing.

| I have noticed that WinRar on compressing Video Files is not too great, anyone recommend something to compress video files, I have about 20 video files that add to about 7GB. Anyone recommend something to compress Video Files, maybe I am just not using WinRar correctly? |

| What if you turn up the compression, but obviously it will be slower to compress. ![]()

| Have you considered burning your videos onto a disk and using them as needed. If you compress them you are [SIZE=1]going to[/SIZE] loose some quality in them. EDIT You have the potential to loose quality. Last edited by evilfantasy : 15th Aug 2007 at 08:53 AM. |
