There are discs that are dual layer that have 2x that amount of storage, do you know if your burner has that capability?
Or, the program DVD Shrink compresses and encodes that file down to a size that will fit onto that disc. Here are guides

and if you want the shrink program you can get it from the homepage of that link, or look for it in the software section here at Afterdawn

You'll be at roughly 66% as shown in DVDShrink's compression tab. It's a tough call. If it's a high action movie it may have a few bad spots. If it's a talking heads, romantic comedy type it might be fine. It also depends on what size TV you watch it on. Try it on a RW and see if it suits your needs.

I just burn the main movie only they put to much crap on the dics. It makes a much better copy. If want the extras put them on a disc by themself.(you will never watch them after you watch the movie)

Thanks

When you compress everthing on the disc to make your backup it makes a poor quality backup if you run it through DVDShrink you will see when you reauthor and slect main movie only the movie is only a little over 4.5 gigs (somethimes smmaller and somethimes larger) so all the outher stuff is there just makes it harder to make backups of quality unless you you use DL's and who buys those? any way who wants all that avertisment !
