No simple way to do it, I'm afraid. However, PgcEdit can be of some help.

Just launch the burn function integrated in PgcEdit. It will probably fail and will display an error message, with an "expert" section where you can see where the layer break should be placed approximately. However, since the video is encoded in VBR, PgcEdit cannot translate the recommended position to a precise time code, but it will display the cell number that must be divided in two parts, and will give you the position within that cell. Of course, if the movie is made on only one big cell, the information will be very imprecise. Cut the cell with VobBlanker. (BTW, it is not necessary to create a chapter. A new cell is sufficient.)

You should also take in mind that PgcEdit displays the information for its own burn method (based on mkisofs, with gaps of any sizes between the files and the possibility to place more data on the second layer than on the first one), and it is not necessarily suitable to burn with another program. ImgBurn should work as it uses almost the same method, but I don't think that Nero or DVD-Lab are smart enough to support the gap method used by PgcEdit. If you cannot burn the DVD with your favourite burn program, use PgcEdit to create the ISO, and burn it with ImgBurn.
