    Hi all. Anyone know why the following occurs, and how I can fix it?:
    1. I rip a movie with DVD Decrypter.
    2. Using VCD Galaxy, I do Step 2 & Step 3. In doing step 3, I realise the movie will be too big to fit onto a single cd, but I figure I will split the movie with MPEG/AVI Splitter so it fits on 2 CD's.

    Now, the first part of the split movie burns fine onto a cd. When I go to do the 2nd part, it wont let me burn it - says it can't be added due to BAD PACK HEADER.
    This problem only occurs on the 2nd half of any movie I split. Is there an easy fix to this problem? Or do I just have to limit the size each time I do step 3 in VCD Galaxy?
    Hope I explained this clearly!
    Thanks in advance!

    This is because the File Splitter you are useing is Crap...All it does is Cut the File in Half but it doesn"t re-write the Headers like it should which Basicly Corrupts the File....Use a proper Mpeg editor to edit your Mpeg1 files, you can even use the "Mpeg Tools" in Tmpgenc to cut the File in Half....
