Splitting video files up

I would like to split up a 800 mb .avi into two 400 mb .avi’s so that they can be fit on a cd, one starting where the other one left off. Is there any way that I can do this?

Start here.

These folks have the answers for most video situations (especially those that involve burning CDs)

You should peek at

(…how the hell did it auto-submit?)

…the “how to edit” guide link in the green section of the menu. You might also be interested in the conversion section.
