Hey guys
I downloaded a torrent that I want to burn to dvd. I opened up the folder in Shrink but cant get it small enough to put on dvd. I want to retain all of the menus and things of that sort, and I cant cutout the audio on some parts because its a concert so the audio is basically the main part. Let me know of any tricks to get this done while keeping the menus.

Are you getting the red bar on the top of the screen?

Some of the members here have compressed the files/DVDs twice.

I'm not a fan of Shrinking twice or whatever. The quality looks horrendous. Have you tried VOB Blanker? You can blank all the crap you don't want but keep everything on the disc intact (unlike the reauthor mode in Shrink).

By doing this, you'll save a lot of space. Some of the newer Sony DVDs that are out, that come with like 20 trailers, after blanking all that excess trash, the size of the DVD is barely over a DVD5.

You should look into it.
