can you recommend the best/easiest software for splitting avi movies ?
I appreciate that nero will allow you to drop an avi into it & convert to mpg to watch on dvd...
BUT, what about if the avi is 700 meg.
I have Roxio but it is finnickey & takes a long time to convert & split the avi's.
any help appreciated (no paper MCSE's though
)

Its easy. Read the feckin page and email me if you're still stuck ![Wink](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Never had a problem spitting a file with it yet. No sync problems either. Convert to mpeg first and away you go.

just checked that link andy, thats exactly what I did, but it didn't like the avi file, wonder if it's corrupt![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
also if it needs the .wav file then I have to extract that first...thats what I do anyway with roxio.....
why is everything that's enjoyable (watching films) so bl00dy complicated!!!

But seriously mate, its pretty easy really. Just make sure your avi actually works first eh
If it plays okay in WMP then its probably alright.
Are you converting to VCD, SVCD or keeping as DivX ?

Loads of films, loads of games, loads of vinyl. Vinyls my first love, but I can't resist tinkering with the latest technology and exploiting copyrights as much as possible ![Big Grin](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Thats my life really, although the GF would go mad if she heard that![Big Grin](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

You could always try this too.
Personlly, I just record my divx files to VCR and watch them on the telly. Much less hassle than messing about with svcd etc.
Thats one of the reasons I want the big HDD in the x-box too, a portable video library

No, tmpgenc will just allow you to convert to SVCD compatible mpeg and then let you split the file into pieces that will fit on a CDR. I used to stick to files of around 60 mins (VCD).
