Hello

I have a 12 gig mov file stuck on my mbp, stupidly I captured it in fcp straight onto the laptop and not my external hd. I really need to transfer it to my external hd and have tried copying the filoe to multiple dvds using toast, which didn't work because 2 of the DVDs contain more than the 4gig transfer limit. Does anyone know if I can specify in toast how much info goes onto each dvd? I also have stuffit deluxe 12 and thought that I could dropstuff the mov into 5 segmented sitx files......however segment size option in stuffit is always greyed out and unavailable.

I'd really appreciate if someone could tell me why this option in dropt stuff remains greyed out and unavailable??


cheers.....BEET
