Won't using a DVD authoring application reduce the picture quality to
standard definition (after all there is no HD DVD standard as yet)? I think
the OP is asking how to split the files so he can burn the HD content, as
HDTV with no re-sampling or re-scaling or re-compression, to a couple of
4.7Gb DVD-/+R single layer discs.
The job is more one of splitting a recorded TV file in two to fit onto a
DVD-R, rather than creating a DVD that will play as a DVD (with all the
inherent quality drop that scaling from 1920x1080 or 1280x720 to 720x480
would entail)
TMPGEnc now supports MS-DVR files - so it might be that it can allow them to
be edited to create smaller files - without triggering a re-encode?
