Is it an *.avi or *.mpg movie?

Splitting movies can be quite intensive and irritating and may in some instances cause synch issues. I would suggest buying 90 minute or 99 minute CD-R's. I use 90 min CD-R's for all movies over and above 740,000 kb's, less than I simply over burn using cdrwin.
Try HERE (http://www.blank-cd-cdr.com/cdr-media-90---99-minutes.html) for pretty good prices on 90 and 99 minute CD-R's. Good Luck.

Well splitting movies ain't that hard:


if the movies in question are .avi files use this guide:

Splitting .Avi files in NanDub (http://www.doom9.org/virtualdub_procedures.htm#Splitting)

if the movies in question are .mpg files then use this guide:

Splitting .mpg files with TmpgEnc (http://www.dvdrhelp.com/tmpgencedit.htm)



Good luck

if the file is a .mpg/.mpeg file ive found M2-editpro much easier faster reliable than tmpeg is..

I'd say Easy Video Splitter is very good.
It auto splits movies in half amongst other options

Ive had no probs using this,dead simple aswell.

PB - He did not try right, there is no reason that it should not work on a 90 minute disc for that matter. He simply is using the wrong software in my opinion. I should have stated that my apologies. CDRwin is what I use to burn anything to my large capacity media, it works great and 815 mb's will fit on a 800 mb 90 min disc without issue. I think he may be doing more here than what he has stated, if he is trying to make a VCD or other than simple data there can be several different reasons for the disc not working.

Others - And I did not state it was hard to split movies I stated it can be intensive and irritating, when it is so simple to just burn the darn thing to disc. However I have never tried some of your suggestions, I had used VD without any guide and was sort of unimpressed with my own work.

just a little note if its SVCD you can get 809MB on a 80min disc

just another little note the file size in meg isnt necessarily the thing to go by its the minutes size to go by to find if itll fit on any size cd if you burn it as a vcd or svcd....i have 4 files of 824meg burnt as svcd to 700meg cd but each file is 52minutes in length so its under 80minutes ....

How do you get it to burn more than the cd should hold whenever i try to get Nero to burn something that is bigger than the cd it wont let me?
Thanks
