DVD burning problem

[SiRiUs13]

a couple of times i tried to copy some dvd's
but when its done making an image of it the size of it is more then 4.7gb... it was 6 and more

example: Bad boys 2
last 30min isn't on it

so are there dvd's bigger then 4.7gb?
or is there a file to compress the movies to fite on a 4.7dvd

Ok then , those dvds are double layer (soz for my english but dunno for sure if its well say).There are many films that have more than 4,7 gb .They even can have 8.5 gb .So u need have one of those dvds and be sure that u dvd burner supports those dvds

I use a program called DVD Shrink to reduce the size to a std 4,7GB, this recompresses the video of the movie so if there are a lot of extras, menus, non film content, movie is long etc etc then the quality of the movie will suffer so then your best bet is drop some of the extras or additional language audio support. Sometimes Ive had to use DVD decrypter before running shrink to remove any protection but its generally pretty quick. Both are freeware programs so should be easy to find.

And of course you will only be doing this to make backup copies of your own movies for personal use and not for ....€ coz thats not allowed

DVD Shrink is best on the market

DVD Shrink suxx, Nero Recode 2 is far better in quality.
