dvd burning problem

hi guys and dolls

hope you can help me out here, my problem is...
if you d/l a movie and it comes in 2 files, each one around 700mb(avi) after you encode them to put onto dvd how do you get them onto one disc cus at the moment when ive encoded them i can only get one of the files onto disc theres not enough room for the other. Also which encoder do you recomend?

first you need to join both your avi's together using something like VirtualDubMod (free)
available here http://www.videohelp.com/tools?tool=332

I personally use TMPGEnc to encode the video and BeSweet GUI to encode the audio, and then for authoring TMPGEnc DVD Author

U should just put those two files together using VirtualDub then encode them and don't let the size go over 4.3 gigs when u encode it even though they don't have to take up the whole disc.
