    Ive got a folder on my cpu that contains 2 files. One is an iso which is huge 7.44 GB, the other is a MDS file and is only 9 kb. Anyways how can i get that iso split in half i guess? So i can put it on 2 dvds?

    The MDS file contains info about the ISO file that burning programs use. There are several possibilities.

    One is to open the file in DVD Shrink and let that program compress the ISO file to fit on a SL DVD.

    Another is to use DVD Shrink to remove unwanted portions of the video contained in the ISO file so that either less compression is required to fit on a SL DVD.

    If there are menus you want to save then a commercial program like DVD Remake can be used to split the DVD.

    The final option is to burn to a dual layer DVD.
