I have a MUXed MPEG2 file that is about 45 min or so long. Is there a way that I can burn this to a DVD-R disc with either Toast or iDVD?

I'd rather not have to deMUX, transcode and then re-encode the video. That may take a LONG time.

Any imput would be helpful.

Thanks!

haven't used it myself, but some people have recommended Sizzle:

you might want to read the link on DVD authoring with Sizzle, i think you might be able to burn muxed files.

Sizzle seems to have done the trick, thanks!

I had to demux the tracks, but Sizzle accepted the split files without complaint and generated a burnable disc image.

Thanks again!

I may have spoken too soon.

The DVD plays fine using the Mac OS X DVD Player app, but there is no audio on my PS2.

I'm sure the disc will work in other DVD players, but my PS2 may not like the MP2 audio track.

I'm going to try to extract the MP2 to AIFF and encode to AC3 with APack and see where that get's me.
