XtremeMaC Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 hi thereI'm trying to figure out how to do this:I've lots of folders that i want to copy to dvd's. is there a program that would take those folder's sizes' and find the best match to fit into dvd's?if there is nothing like that how'd one go about doing such a thing?better explanationI've folders likefolder 1: 1.5gbfolder 2: 3.1gbfolder 3: 800mbetc...now i cannot put folder 1 & 2 into the same dvd obviously bc it exceeds 4.488mbso another folder must be replaced with it.hope u get the pictureTIAthis would solve many problems that I have pls pls helphow would the logical setup of this program would look like? I cannot think straight right now thus couldn't picture how i'd set this thing up in my mind Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
/\/\o\/\/ Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 hhmm,looks like just starting with the biggest and then work your way down,so fist sort400300200100505020hmm, could be something like this 400 OK -> take of the list put on stack next300 (400 on stack + 300 = 700 ) 640 - 700 = negative so let it on listnext200 (400 + 200 = Pos) put on stacketc.till 20then write the CD (400 + 200 + 20)list is now3001005050then start again till list is emptynext part would be to get a level option (2 dirs deep)if your doing it in VB.net or vbscript i'v got the recursive folder size partmaybe if i'v got time I will make one.gr /\/\o\/\/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
