As far as I know, below is the only freeware tutorial on the Internet which shows how to convert DAA archives to DVD when the original DAA files are larger than 300 kb.

QUESTION (previously not answered on the Internet as far as we can tell):

How do I convert large DAA files to DVD on Windows using freeware?

ANSWER (thanks mostly to Bjorn S., Jim S., & Luigi Auriemma):
0. Download Luigi Auriemma’s Windows freeware daa-conversion utility:
http://aluigi.altervista.org/mytoolz.htm

This contains a zip file with source code & a Windows binary:
http://aluigi.altervista.org/mytoolz/daa2iso.zip

1. Point Luigi’s dvd2iso to the *first* file in your DAA archive:
c:\> daa2iso filename.part01.daa output.iso

This will convert single or multi-part DAA files to a single ISO.
A single output.iso file image will be the result.

2. You can burn that ISO image to DVD using Windows ImgBurn freeware:
http://www.imgburn.com

This will get you a playable DVD.

3. Or you can unpack that ISO image using Windows IZArc freeware:
