The 'DVD Backup' Read-me files contain all the instructions on how to save and process movies on a disc under 4.7 Gigs, but who the hell ever heard of a movie under 4.7 Gigs??? This excerpt from the Read-Me file gives these links, but there is nothing that I've found that contains anything useful:

- The DVD has more than 4.7 GB total on any one side (DVD-9, DVD-14, DVD-18)
Here the situation is more complex, since the files must be split onto two DVDs each with less than 4.7GB. Doing this requires many steps and is beyond the scope of this document. For more information, please visit sites such as:

You apparently don't entirely understand the point of DVD2OneX... It shrinks the movie so it will fit on one DVD-R. No need to split it. There are ways to split movies over two discs, but it's a pain, both to do and to watch (have to switch disks).
