File size problems?

[FM80]

Do I need to break up a large (537 MB) video into smaller clips before burning it as a VCD?

I'm having playback problems with a single large file and I am trying to solve them.

If so, what utility can I use to do this?

How many minutes is this file and in what format avi or mpeg?
What exactly is the problem you are having with the fle?

I guess I should have stated that more clearly.

The file: about 55 or 60 minutes of VCD-compliant MPEG.

The problem: When I burn it to VCD using EZCD5, it plays well in any set-top player for only 25-30 minutes, then the audio begins to skip around. Finally, the audio just disappears altogether.

But when played on a PC or a Dreamcast, it is fine.

So I thought maybe the single, continuous file was the problem.

one single continuous file shouldn't be a problem.
you might want to try different authoring software...I've personally never gotten EZCD to make a good disc for me--although it did help me start my nice coaster collection
you might want to use VCDeasy to make an image, and then burn the image. that usually gives good results
