Is there anyway to compress an ISO image any further?
Basically what I am trying to do is get the image as small as possible while still keeping the quality.

I currently use DVD Fab 8 or DVD Shrink.
I will decrypt and shrink the DVD with both software (which ever happens to work), then I will re-author or extract just the movie itself
(This usually brings the entire movie size from 8-9GB to 4.464GB, then once I extract the movie sometimes it shrinks the size even more sometimes it doesnt (sometimes I get files that are 1 or 2GB and other times I get files that are 4GB).

What I am wondering if I can get it compressed or shrunk any further, without loosing the quality. I tried using FairUse Wizard to convert the ISO to AVI but on review I could see the quality was down. I tried Magic ISO but it didnt compress them much at all and created another file that I would have to uncompress just to watch or make another image.

I even tried running it through DVD Shrink again but it do much, if anything.

So have I done all I can do. Is this is small as a ISO can go or is there something else I could do?

Thanks in advance
