Our point was that if you are only saving a single file, you do not
need to format the DVD, not as UDF, not as ISO, nor as anything at
all. Ie, you can burn it raw. You simply go to k3b and tell it to

understand the requirements. How exactly you use Nero, so it is so
helpful (how does it tell you where to split the tar?)?
Hiya Sunny. Nero won't tell me how to split my file.

I need to split a big tar into a couple of files so I can burn them on DVD+R
