how do you burn one LARGE file (larger than a 700mb cdr) into 2 or more cds?
i am using nero 6
i am trying to burn a 1000mb mpeg file.
if you have a different software to recommend, recommend it..
thanx in advance..

First off, you need a CD-R capable of being overburned. I don't think they make CD-Rs that are easily over burned to 1GB though.
Next, you need a CD-RW drive that can actually overburn CD-Rs as well.
Your best bet is to split the file into 2 pieces and burn it onto 2 CD-Rs or just burn a DVD. :)

I had just the program that would do what you wanted and then I deleted it because I'd never used it x
Googling brings up this program: http://www.dekabyte.com/filesplitter/

it wont let me burn, i think it becuase when it splits it, it turns the file into a .exe file

Are you trying to burn it as a data CD (for backup purposes) or VCD (for video playback)? File splitters would only be useful if you want to burn it as data. If you wanted to do a VCD, you'd have to break the MPG into two separate MPG files. I think VirtualDub might be able to handle that.

No. With that file splitting program, it splits the physical data into two separate files that can be put back together on their own. To burn a VCD of an MPG, you need to split them based on the frames of the video, not the individual bytes of data.

Virtualdub can't output mpg though, last time I checked :p
Why are you burning an mpg anyway? Compress it with a better codec like xvid or h264 :p

splitter programs have worked well for me in the past split the movie about half way so you end up with 2 differnt files.
use nero to burn the 2 files to 2cdr's it will probly start to encode the files which takes a while.
ive only done this when making vcd's to play in my dvd player :)

once the files are split tell nero 6 or above to make a video cd :)
burn 1 file (be prepared to wait up to an hour for it to re-encode the file it will burn as soon as its encoded) once its finished burn the second one to a seperate disc :)
btw just type in google video splitter or avi splitter then u will find one that works i forget the name of the one i used but i got it from google after searching for they things :)
