I'm not sure if this is a stupid question, but is there a way that I can use a recordable DVD for storage of large video files (ie. 1gb avi files)? I don't want to be able to play the disc on a DVD player, but when I've tried to use programs to burn four 1gb avi movies onto a 4.7gb DVD, I get an error message telling me there isn't enough space (by far). So basically what I'm trying to say (I think!) is that I want to use it for data storage, basically, rather than to create a disc playable on a DVD player - although I was under the impression that it was possible to burn a DVD with a number of movies on it and it would play on most DVD players, allowing the user to select one of the movie files to play, just as CDRs etc do. I'm fairly new to recordable DVDs, having only ever used CDR and CDRW before. Any help much appreciated!
