bluray movies can be upto 25GB, what you be happening is it backing up in chapters, and the 1st intro chapter is 1.6GB and then its trying the movie, which will be more than the space you have left. 10GB minus 1-2GB Linux minus the 1.6GB at chapter, that only leaves you 6GB.
I'd allocate 40GB for linux if you wish to backup movies.

also search some of the posts about backing up movies and they will give you aprox figures on how much space you need.

I think your have to uninstall and start again, either that use an external HDD to backup to.
