Splitting divx & playon PS2

[Funkyirishman]

Ok apologies for the stupid questions but hey you have to learn somehow

I have backed up my copy of Midnight Express all 116 minutes of it using gnot. I want to put it on either one or two cd. I have checked the forum and virtualdub seems to be the software to use so I will experiment with that.Any tips hints ?? Is it possible to put it onto 1 Cd ? If I do put it onto 2 Cd's is there a way of having a prompt at the end of the first cd to 'Change Disc' ?

Also the only DVd player I have is a Sony playstation 2. If I do get it onto disc would it play on this or do I have to spend my Euros on a DVD player

Cheers

Howya,
At 116min, 1CD would be fine. Quaility should be fine. Use NanDub or VirtualDub to split it in 2 if you want.
For a prompt, you would need to make it yourself.

For the PS2, I can play DivX but with a mod chip installed.
Have a gander at www.ps2reality.net.
If your into maybe a dvd player, check out http://www.kiss-technology.com/

Where is the best site or thread to learn about virtual dub?
What is the best way of putting onto one disc ? Do I still have to split it ??
