How can I split a movie over multiple DVD's

Post by Parminder »

I have created a movie using VideoStudio 8.0 and it is about 1hr 45 minutes long. How can I put it on two DVD's. I do not want to sacrifice the picture quality.

What you can do here is:
1) Place the movie in the timeline of a new project.
2) Scan forwards and find an appropriate place to break.
3) Use the scissors to cut the project into two pieces.
4) Delete the second half. (Don't worry, the original is still on the hard drive)
5) Re-render the shortened first half to a video file, giving it a new name.
6) Reload the original movie in a new project.
7) Cut in the same place, deleting the first half this time.
8) Re-render the shorter second half.

Use these two shorter files for burning to DVD.

It Works!

Thank you so much Ron. I followed these steps and everything worked beautifully. I wish Ulead had thought about automating the Disk Spanning in VideoStudio.
