PacMan777,
Ok, I did all that was suggested but when it began to burn the buffer went right to 100% and didn't proceed any further.

Okay, just to make sure we're on the same page...
The files were processed by R4M and opened in DVD Shrink. Shrink was set to create an ISO and burn automatically with ImgBurn. Now here's the part I didn't tell you but we can remedy that now. We want to save the log and post it here. Since the ISO is on your hard drive, open ImgBurn and select the ISO to burn. Under View at the top, select Log. The ImgBurn Log window should be open along with the ImgBurn window. Do the burn and let it go as far as it will. When the Buffer hits 100% it starts writing the leadin. Mine takes 30 seconds or so before the device buffer kicks in and the burning starts. When the process stops, go to the ImgBurn Log window, click File and Save As. Name the log and select Save. The default location is the ImgBurn folder, but you may want to put it somewhere more easily accessible. Whatever... remember where you saved it and named it. Open the log, copy the contents and post here.

I got an error before it started to burn and it said:
Cannot add file to image
ISO9660 Limit:4,294,967,295 bytes.
Reason: File size exceeds the limit imposed by the ISO9660 file system.
What do I do to fix it?

You answered a request with a question. Did you do as I suggested and do you now have the system set up as I outlined?

If that's the case, are you using a FAT32 or NTFS partition?
Try burning the MDS instead of the ISO and see what happens.

Ok, Yes I did do Ripit4me and shrink created the ISO file. Shrink then opened ImgBurn and I followed what you said and it gave me the error message I posted last time and I clicked Ok then the log said the process failed. Since it didn't even try to burn it I just posted the error message I got in hopes of finding what caused the error message. Also I don't know what FAT32 or NTFS partitions are or the MDS.
Honestly I'm just wondering if there's a way to fix it so I can go back to burning VTS files with shrink and Nero instead of dealing with the ISO ImgBurn especially since I've never used that before so I dont know anything about it. P.S. does ImgBurn replace DVD Decrypter when using RipIt4me?
Thanks for the patience and help!

RI4M incorporates FixVTS code, DVD Decrypter (for decryption) and DVD Shrink to accomplish bypassing the copyright protections and processing for compliance. That's all about getting good clean source files for DVD Shrink. That way the obsolete decryption software in DVD Shrink doesn't have to try to do the job and possibly fail. With the "cleaned" files in Shrink, Shrink does the transcoding. The files that opened in Shrink should be in File mode with the Video_TS folder and the IFO, BUP, and VOB files. If you ripped ISO with RI4M, you didn't follow my instructions. At this point you can set Shrink to output to your DVD drive and burn the files with Nero's Burning ROM or take one of the ISO options, or record a File folder to the hard drive with the Video_TS folder and files in it. You said you wanted to get away from creating ISOs. If you used DVD Decrypter to burn the files with, Shrink would have had to work the same as I had you set it up with ImgBurn. DVD Decrypter only burns ISO files. ImgBurn is the updated DVD Decrypter burning software and it burns ISO.
RI4M saved the files to the hard drive the same time it opened them in DVD Shrink. Browse to that folder with (Open Files) and open in Shrink. What I'd like you to do now is set the ripped files up to burn. Select Create ISO. We want to save it to the hard drive this time. Remember where Shrink is sending it. Write it down if necessary. Once done, I would like to know the complete contents of the folder.
By the way. I asked you to save the ImgBurn log, even if the burn failed. Hopefully you saved it and will post a copy of it here. I wasn't asking for error codes or anything else, I wanted to see the log, even if not complete. That's 2 things now. The ImgBurn log and the folder contents when you create the ISO on the hard drive.

OK I used Ripit4me then opened the files in shrink and selected create ISO and saved to a folder on my harddrive like you said. Shrink finished it and I went back to the folder where shrink sent it and there was only one file in the folder it was WATER_DOG.ISO, since water dog is the name of the movie. I'm not sure if anything else was supposed to be there but thats all there was.
The Log file from ImgBurn, where it says operation failed is when I got the error I said before:

Did your window look something like this when your problem occurred?
Looking at your log, I think I may have figured it out. If I'd seen a capture of your screens it would have helped.

I've got the solution to that for you. I've got to run out for a litltle while. If someone one hasn't posted the solution for you by the time I get back, I'll post it for you.

That's great thanks, My only question as of now is if this will help solve my problem with using Nero and shrink to burn a movie to a disc without selecting create ISO or will this just fix the ISO problem?

I don't know, but one step at a time. The log indicates you selected Build under Mode when it should have been Write. There's where the partial log from ImgBurn came in.
First, put a recordable DVD in your burner and let the system recognize it. Open ImgBurn and under Mode, select Write (note the photo below). Be sure your burner drive shows in the Destination window and set your burn speed in Settings to the right. Since it's an external drive, you're low on resources, and having problems, 4X is a reasonable speed to try for the 1st burn. If it works okay, move on up toward 8X later. Click the Browse for a file... icon (circled) to open the browse window. Locate the ISO file and click on it to select. When the ISO file is highlighted, select Open. Click the icon to start. Hopefully it will burn this time. Save the log and post it (either way). Good luck. If this one will burn, then you can tackle Nero again.

Ok, I did that and I still couldn't burn it went to 100% on the buffer then got stuck there and froze even the burner wouldn't respond. I had to choose to end the unresponsive program after waiting about 40 minutes just to be sure.

You got farther that time. Looks like the same problem irregardless of the software. Will your external drive play a DVD or record a CD?

Referring to a previous entry, reference that the program is swapping to disk as you are short of memory. How much disk space do you have? Have you considered defragmenting your hard disk before doing a burn as you may not have contiguous disc space and this could give problems. I'm looking for obvious simple solutions as I make sure I have a least double the required clear space on my hard drive before ripping/burning and I've had not issues with DVD Shrink at all. I use Roxio to burn the files after encoding. I do not burn automatically. (That's just my preference).
Its something to try first as every little helps as the supermarket says.

Appreciate your taking the time to help us on this problem. It has left me scratching my head a few times.
The last Nero log has the information you were wondering about. We realize the memory is lacking, but there is enough to do the backup to the hard drive. robpardee has successfully created the backup ISO. As you pointed out for us, the drive is stopping at the same point it did with Nero, when it's trying to write the Lead-in. This is the first point the drive comes into play for burning. At this point I have some questions, so I asked one that would encompass the others. Is the external drive working at all? You see there is an internal DVD ROM that could have been used for reading the DVD. So, this could be the first point at which the USB drive comes into play for the backup. My current thoughts lean toward a faulty drive or if this is the first time this media has been used, try some that previously worked.
The things to consider at this point are the PC has read and used DVD Shrink to create an ISO backup on the HD. Free space and RAM have been utilized. From the last ImgBurn log you can read the resources in play. Shrink and the decryption have been totally removed from the equation at this point. That job was done when the ISO was completed. We are left with data on the HD and trying to get it to a recordable DVD. That's why I asked if the burner was functioning at all. Robpardee said he'd been burning and this just happened. Maybe wrongly, but I assumed he'd been burning DVDs up to this point with the same resources. We've successfully tried Nero and ImgBurn. After getting robpardee up to speed on the ImgBurn Program, we come to the point we're at now. I appreciate your help and if you will review the entire thread, and read the last Nero log, then the input from the build and trying a separate burn process of the completed ISO (where least RAM would be used), I'd appreciate your take on what it could be.
We've covered RAM. Low, but the transcode and ISO creation is complete.
Decryption and DVD Shrink are not the problem.
2 burning programs both fail at the same point when the burn is first initiated.
We're left with the burner interface, burner, and recordable media.
The heavy processing part of the job (transcoding) was completed, so the PC appears to be working under load. An indicator the PC is working properly without overheating.
On review, is there anything you can add that I'm missing or a question to be asked that might shed more light on the situation so we can diagnose robpardee's problem?

robpardee,
Since there is nothing in the ImgBurn log to indicate a problem I then looked at your Nero Log. Creaky missed this one( must have had a Pint to many as he really is good at looking at the Nero Logs) as you computer is in conflict w/ the burner per the error in the Nero Log.
Status: 0x02 (0x03, SCSI_ABORTED)
HA-Status 0x10 (0x0A, SCSI_HASTAT_REQUEST_SENSE_FAILED)
TA-Status 0x00 (0x00, OK)
Sense Key: 0x05 (KEY_ILLEGAL_REQUEST)
PacMan77 asked if you can burn anything Can you. Try a CD first. Have you checked the computer to make sure all of the cables are seated properly?

Thanks Car.Mike. Seems we saw the same thing. At first, from the way the problem was described, I thought it was something related to software intereference or some of the backup software not doing the job. After eliminating that and having Nero and ImgBurn fail at the same spot, obviously due to the same problem, it's looking more like drive related. Some answers about the external burner function will give us more of an idea there. Using Shrink was just coincidence here. It has nothing to do with the backup process at all. It's strictly a recording problem.

Ok to answer everyone's questions:
Memory-HD space for me is limited but I have enough to do the burns.
RAM- As it says from the logs I don't have alot either but I do have 512 and that's maxed out what I can have on my computer.
Trial 1-I tried to burn a CD with the external drive and it successfully did it right away no problems. I used Windows Media player to write to it.
Trial 2-I put in a CD-ROM which it read it instantly but when I put in the DVD it took me ejecting it and putting it back in and re-reading the disc to play it but it did play it.
Other-The cables are all seated properly and without trouble. I also have been burning for a while and yes this did just start last monday out of the clear blue.
Thanks to everyone trying to help!

PacMan777,
He now needs to look at the cables first as that is the cheapest thing to replace. If they are OK then I would take the burner and use it in another computer. If it replicates the problem there then I would conclude that the burner might be going bad. If it passes there then look at the MOBO or if it is an external then look at the usb connection as a wire could have come loose inside of the computer

robpardee,
This is a shot in the dark but if what I posted to PacMan777 passes then you might try a free registry cleaner and see if cleaning the registry clears up the conflict. Both of the Nero Logs show a conflict w/ the computer and the burner.

Where do I get a free registry cleaner and how do I use it? Also would you like me to try hooking up the burner to another computer and trying the burn? I can do this probably tomorrow if so.
