No... it's not impossible. It's "possible" and can be done by encoding (or compressing) by using DVD Shrink or Nero Recode 2. Just make sure you custom the size into 4300MB and you should be fine.

No.. it's not too much. I'll try to give you some basic and simple steps shortly alright. Before we proceed, do you have DVD Decrypter? If you don't then I suggest you to download it from here (afterdawn.com). DVD Decrypter is still the king of ripper -- it will rip and decrypt any encrypted protection codes that was put on the original dvds.

@bubsy,
I am not an expert on DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink, and or I am not a genius on writing guides. However, I have very little experiences on DVD burning (backups) for a while now, so I'll just give you the simple steps on how to get start alright. Someone correct me if I'm wrong though and please feel free to "educate" me anytime.
((Here is a simple steps to back up a 7 ? 9GB dvd movie on a single layer 4.7GB (DVD5) disc using DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink or Nero. Assuming you already has all of the programs ready to do some burning.))
** open up your ?c: drive? or ?hard drive?, go to FILE, NEW, Folder, name it ?NEW_BACKUPMOVIE?, hit [Enter] to save it, and another one like ?FINAL_SHRINKMOVIE? or anything you want, hit [Enter] to save it, then EXIT.
** now go inside the 2 folders ?NEW_BACKUPMOVIE? and ?FINAL_SHRINKMOVIE?, go to FILE, New, Folder and name it VIDEO_TS <--- Yes? exactly like this under each folder, and hit [Enter] to save it. Now closed that.
((Before you start, let?s make sure you have some high quality grade media on hand ready to proceed. Please use high quality media such as Taiyo Yuden (genuine Yuden can be the Fuji & Sony 8X DVD+R ?Made In Japan?), Maxell ?Made In Japan?, and Verbatim.))
**put blank dvd inside your DVD burner
** put original dvd in dvd rom.
((NOTE: in prior to ?decrypt or rip? the original movie, take a few seconds to check the few following settings on DVD Decrypter.))
** open up DVD Decrypter, go to Tools, and Settings
** at General ?Removal Method? arrow down to ?Aggressive?
** at I/O check ?Ignore Read Errors?
** at CSS check ?Brute Force I/O key exchange, On Failure: use key from another file [YES]
** at ISO Write Mode, check ?Enable BURN-Proof
((Since you have DVD Decrypter open already, now let?s get going with the fun part))
** now go to MODE, File F
** choose your ?SOURCE? <-- your DVD-Rom drive where the Original movie is located.
** choose your ?Destination? <-- browse to your ?hard drive? with your newly created folder earlier; example: NEW_BACKUPMOVIE, then ?VIDEO_TS?, click on OK.
** now click on ?DECRYPT?, wait until it's completed, and closed DVD Decrypter (this takes about 15 - 20 mins depending on your computer specs).
** now open up DVD Shrink, then ?Open Files?, and browse to your (NEW_BACKUPMOVIE), then "VIDEO_TS" folder that you created/ripped (with DVD Decrypter) earlier and click ?OK? to open it.
** DVD Shrink should do a quick Analysis now, wait until it's completed (it?s only 1 - 2 minutes).
** NOTE: if you want super quality and just the main movie only without the Extras, Subtitles and Menu, then you can click on "Re-author" mode, click on "main title 1" and drag it to drop under the "DVD Structure" on the left hand panel, then click on BACKUP, and OK.
** NOTE: if you want to do a ?CUSTOM? on a DVD-R/+R disc, set the CUSTOM to ?4300MB? or ?4350MB?, (to do this, go to EDIT, then PREFERENCES, and set the MB size, then hit ?OK? when you?re done. (NOTE: if you want to Burn with Nero, then at ?File/IO?, [check] ?Enable Burning with Nero?)
** NOTE: if you want a "Full Disc Backup" with better quality, then you should set the "Quality Settings" to ?Maximum Sharpness? or to your desire (to do this, click on ?BACKUP?, "Quality Settings", and click on ?Compress Video with High Quality?, and arrow down to ?Maximum Sharpness?, then OK.
** NOTE: on ?Burn Settings? you can set the ?Burn Speeds? and ?Book Type to DVD-ROM? if only you?re going to burn with Nero using a DVD+R disc (this is one of the best way to go)
** now click on ?Target Device?, on select backup target: you can select to burn with either Nero or DVD Decrypter (create ISO Image File and Burn with DVD Decrypter) <--- your choice of burning, and click on OK
** do this only if you?re burning with Nero: on ?Select Folder for Temporary Files:? browse to your ?FINAL_SHRINKMOVIE? then ?VIDEO_TS? and click on OK (this will store the already shrink/compressed 4.3GB movie files so you can burn again later without having to shrink or encode again.)
** now hit ?OK?, sit back, relax, go smoke, drink, or watch a movie on your TV, DVD Shrink will do the encoding, wait until it's completed (this takes anywhere from 15 - 25 mins depending on your computer specs and how big is the original movie)
** once DVD Shrink is done, it should automatically back up with either Nero or DVD Decrypter (this is your setting earlier on the backup Target Device.)
** that's it.... easy as sipping on a Corona, now wait for Nero or DVD Decrypter to finish the backup process and you're done (this takes about 7 - 10 mins depending on your computer specs.)
** once you have a successfully backed up, now you can go to your NEW_MOVIEBACKUP, VIDEO_TS folder and delete all of those files, since you won?t need them anymore.
Hope this help you a little. Have fun burning!!!
