The Documentary.

With English subtitles, NTSC DVD, and file size less than or equal to 4.37 gigabytes (DVD-5)

Prefereably with good speeds. No public trackers :)

I'd like to watch it on my TV, and my DVDs are only 4.37 gigabytes. Yeah I stated 4.7 in the OP but that's what it says with every megabyte being 1000 bytes, not 1024.

Hm. How can I write it in 2 DVDs?

Plus I don't have an HD-DVD player so I can't download HD-DVDs

Maghushun-

But is there some way for me to watch HD on my TV even if I don't have an HD-DVD player?

Do you download HD-DVD rips and then convert them to DVD since they're avi files? What if they were x264?

And so I just split up the video into 2 segments and use one for each disc?

Because say I downloaded a DVD-R version of it, and the files were in an iso / vob files. How can I split that up?

I don't know how could you split up the DVDr s, but i guess somebody knows here, maybe they come in.

HD rips are the similar avi files like DVD rips, but as you say, im not sure that the ordinary DVD player can play it on the telly. well... i dunno

TL and TDC has them...

From your equipment description, just stick to the DVD versions, but the HD versions are better.

For HD, you have two options:

1. For the HD encodes (~24 GB), you play them from your computer and transfer the video/audio signal to your HDTV.
2. For the HD source (80 to 85 GB), you can view them like above, or burn them and watch them from your HD player connected to your HDTV. (More expensive)

You cannot play x264 encodes from a regular DVD player.

Spartan-

What if they were HD-DVD Rips? And in avi format?

Also how can I split up DVD-Rs? The Planet Earth DVD-Rs at TL are too big for my disc

For your first question, they still need to be decoded, so you can only play them from your computer. By the way, scene HDrips are not the best, just stick to internal encodes from your favorite HD site if you have access. ESIR made a great release for this series in 720p. There is also a 1080p if interested.

The release at TL from NTX are DVD5... so you won't have problems. Once you unrar, burn the image and it will fit on a regular DVD.

Yep, that is the complete series... If you wish to STORE them, since each episode is half a DVD5 (~2.15 GB), you can burn and fit 2 episodes into one DVD5.
