How to copy a movie clip to 2 blank CD-RW?

[c1steady]

I have a video clip "Hacker" which is 660Meg . I cannot burn into one blank disc cos the video clip file size is more than the blank disc size. How can I do it into a 2 blank disc . Need any software ? Thanks

Use a 700mb CD =\

You can cut it with eg. virtualdub (save striped avi), but the easiest way is to just use a 700mb media as suggested.

However, if the file shows as 660mb in explorer, it might actually be something like 640mb. You can find out the real size of the file by looking at it's properties.

I have a HP 8200 cd writer and using a acer CDRW 74min/650MB

in that case u will have to cut into two with virtualdub or the like or burn onto something with larger capacity than cd

or i guess you could try re-encoding as more compact/lower quality format

When I used to burn movies that were slightly oversized I simply cut the starting and ending credits out (thus making it small enough to fit on a cd).

But since the oversize is 60mbs that won't work. Either re-encode it with lower bitrate or split it.

Hi,
so what does a virtualdub do ? Is it able to split the movie in 2 CDRW ? Thanks

You can split the one file into two files with it...so you can burn each on a seperate CD-R
