MPEG2 file to large for DVD

[markh7999]

Hello everyone. I am VERY new to this and need some help. I recently bought a Creative digital VCR and recorded the final Stanley Cup game. I ultimately want to get it on a DVD for my collection. I have a philips DVD burner and have the file in MPEG2 format. The file is 10.5GB. Everyone that is reading this knows this is way to big. I also have about 20 minutes worth of crap I want to cut out. Anyone have any good suggestions on how to cut the unwanted frames out as well as shrink this file down without losing to much quality. I would not mind having to place this on two DVDs but I also dont know how to split the file into two files. Please any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advanced.

Use cut and join in TMPEGENC to remove the unwanted sections. This will give you several smaller files( the sections you want). Join them back together and cut them to desired length. Just one free method...Follow the guides or post again if u need more help

When you export the file, use the 'Preferences' settings in the exporter program to set the max size of the files.
