You're going to need a 99-minute blank CDR to burn that movie. If you have one, try setting Nero to overburn (100 mins or whatever as the maximum). Then burn at a real low speed (4x). I've done this succesfully about twice (out of ~12 tries). Some burners work with 99-min CDRs, most don't.

Good luck.
