problem burning due to rendering- I can't burn two divided clips

I get the automatic file size limit separation (FAT 32 with WIN ME) when I render in Movie Studio 3.0, which is a handy feature, but when I put them both back-to-back in the timeline, I cannot burn them to a DVD. When I try, it renders the whole thing again, thus separating them again at the exact same place, and it burns the first clip but not the second. I CAN put them back onto DV tape seamlessly, which is nice, but I really want to make DVDs that are over 23 minutes long. Can someone help please?

I not terribly familiar with myDVD (OK, I've never used it in my life). However, most DVD authoring programs will let you import a DVD-compliant MPEG-2 file. I don't know if that is the case with myDVD, but if it is, I recommend you render to an MPEG-2 file first and then import that file into myDVD.

You'll still hit that 4GB limit, but thanks to the high MPEG compression, that will be near 2 hrs of video.

Thanks for the suggestion. I actually render in Screenblast Movie Studio and send to MyDVD later, but perhaps I can go to Advanced Rendering options and choose MPEG 2 I appreciate your time, thanks.
