Default Second Video DVD burns as cdrom

Let me explain. Downloaded a movie (bittorrent) . Came two sections.
First one burns to DVD without issue. Second ,shortest part when going
to burn asks for a CDR. I figured MYDVD STUDIO knew what it was asking
for so i gave it a cdr. Burned.

Last night watching first DVD , no problems, time for second disk (CD)
Shows title on screen and opening 5 second clip. But thats it. Cant
play, cant forward, cant skip, cant do anything. But can watch entire
second part on computer

Adjusted all settings in program but cant force this part of movie
over 750megs to force to dvd , i even burned it again and get the same
results. I

I don't really know about this stuff (never burned a movie this way)
but can you not use something to join them both together then burn
them to dvd?

What was the format of the original file (avi ?)
and what is the file structure of the problem CD?
Was it written as a VCD ?

If it's a VCD, find the DAT file, copy it to the hard drive and
rename it MPG. Play it now. Still bad? Then something went wrong
with the encode process.

If it plays OK, what is the resolution ?
