60 minute Limit

If my movie is over 60 minutes long then when Power Director renders the MPEG2 file using the standard DVD HQ template it splits the output over 2 files. The final MPEG is only 3.9 GB and could easily fit onto a single DVD yet PD deems it necessary to split the file. Is there any way to bypass this behaviour?

Craig,

In Windows, right mouse click on the drive that you are trying to write the produced file to and select properties. In the General tab, what does the "File system:" say. Sounds like you might have a FAT32 formated drive?

I do unfortunately have a FAT32 drive but the limit for FAT32 is just over 4GB (4,294,967,296 bytes to be precise) and my final project when the 2 files are added together is 3945 MB which is under that limit.

The movie is split at the 1hr 40 second point in the project, that why I was thinking it was the 60 minute limit.
