    Well im not gonna lie, I downloaded a concert dvd (U2 if you where wondering) and it is 7.5 gb's. I know that is too large to put onto a dvd so is there anyway to convert it to an AVI or similar video file so that I can make the size smaller? Better yet can you explain how to put this onto two DVD's as that would make more sense? Thanks, Mike

    Sorry but you'll have to turn elsewhere. We don't allow illegal discussion here.
