Well... for VHS simply open up the little flap and very carefully taking a pair of scissors cut the........

But seriously.....
You might be able to over-burn the CD, but other than that the only way is to eidt the film and recompress it, but you'd lose a lot of quality in the process. You could always burn it to a DVD if you have a DVD writer?

You could re encode the film assuming you can transfer it to pc and then encode it to divx/Xvid that way you can have over 5 hours on to a dvd 4.3gb or more

You can get cheap dvd players now that play mpeg4 now or a pc will do the trick

i wouldnt even bother with a cd or dvd, all my films are divx on a memory card with usb adapter. plug it in and watch without fear of scratches!

Don't buy cheap one's, and always "eject" the device before removal.
