I have a 655MB file that is 2.2 hours of movie and Toast says that this file is too large to be a VCD. What am I doing wrong or what is the max size/length of a video file for VCD?

I have no Idea what your doing wrong unless your disk is half full. VCDs can record mpeg files larger than 700 megs on a 700 mb disk. I think I've done a 720mb file once.

The VCD specifications allow up to 74 minutes of video.

It's like CD's vs. MP3's. You can fit hours and hours worth of mp3's on a cd, but then it's become a CD-ROM. To make it cd format, it expands the auido (even if it's poor quality). So for the same reasons that you can't put 100 mp3's totaling 500 minutes on a CD, and play it in your cd player, you can't put 100 MB of video totaling 100 minutes on a VCD.

I'm experiencing a similar problem. Is there a way to cut the big .mov file into smaller ones?
Please let me know.

BTW, the largest VCD I've ever made was about 74 1/2 minutes...
