Trying To 'split' Burn A Dvd

[OC Terry]

Hi, all! I hope I don't get yelled at by one of the moderators but haven't really found the answer to the question around errors when trying to split a long captured file. I have one that's over 2 hours long and know it won't fit on a single DVD. I've tried to split it but get the same errors that have been reported by others. I tried using two different batches of blank DVDs (the -R variety) and still get errors. Attached are a few screen shots to help illustrate the situation. As a side note, I have successfully burned single DVDs (as recently as this morning) from source material that doesn't exceed about 1-1/2 hours; it was only today when I was 'instructed' by the application to split the larger file that I had problems.

 

Thanks in advance for the assist!

I have not had any issue with the Span feature and think it is pretty neat

 

I don't recall ever having both 'Autofit' and 'Span' checked at the same time???

 

Try it with JUST Span checked!

 

Also, when you fill up a disc you reach the outer edge and that can cause issues with cheaper media... I always use Verbatim (Singapore) and Taiyo Yuden (JVC).

Have you tried using a double layer DVD for the 2 hour video?
