    Please help me with a program and instructions on how to convert a 7gb dual layer iso file into two single layer dvds. I dont need the original menu, just want to split the iso onto two burnable playable dvds. Thanks in advance!

    If the ISO contains a dual layer Video DVD, mounting it with daemon tools and then continue as for any DVD9 -> 2 DVD5 project.

    Could you elaborate a little more?

    Not much to elaborate on. Mount the ISO with Daemon Tools. From then on, the ISO will for all apps be seen as a physical DVD in a DVD reader, and can be processed as such. Try this guide. (Should work without mounting the image too, but you say "doesn't work")

    Like I've said a couple of times: From now on, the mounted ISO will appear just as if you had a physical DVD inserted in your DVD reader (but with a different drive letter).
    Just go ahead and do a DVD9->2xDVD5 backup. I gave you a link in my previous post to one guide. Take a look under DVD BACKUP for more.

    deuce8pro,
    If not mistaken, DVDSHRINK I think will open up ISO files. You need to go to Files Open Disk Image and try that path.

    Thank you. I was able to figure it out, mats and successfully burn it onto 2 dvds using Shrink after "mounting" it using that program. Here in the states we use that term to describe something else. Thanks again!

    - I'm aware of other (not computer related) meanings of mounting too. Strange enough, I don't think there's any good Swedish translation for the computer "mount". (but quite a few for "something else").
    Glad it worked!
