Hello,

Use isobuster to extract the .mpg file.

Then you can use an authoring program like tmpgenc dvd author to convert the audio to dvd specs. You can fit up to 4.37 gb on a dvdr so it's almost as much as you can fit (depending on how elaborate your menus are of course, those add space).

the software you need is TMPGnc DVD Author.

Once you have that program, try this first, re-name the extension from .dat to .mpg directly. load the re-named file into TMPGnc DVD Author, if it accepts it, you have your luck because it will NOT re-encode your video, it only re-samples the Audio from 44.1 to 48khz. If TMPGnc DVD Author rejects your re-named file, then you use VCD Easy to convert the .dat file to a TRUE .mpg TMPGnc DVD Author will accept then. Good luck!

Use vcdgear to convert the dat files to mpeg, it only takes minutes and doesn't involve re-encoding. There are plenty of guides to do the rest.
