Hi Bizzle,
Off the top of my head, it sounds like you need another pass (and another 3 hours!)
A film, less than 2 hours long, can be backed-up to a 700MB file with marvelous quality.
Those who say it can't be done don't know how to do it.
Check out the afterdawn guides, and other guides are available around the net (Doom9 etc)
I use GordianKnot. There is AutoGKnot available
http://www.autogk.net/web/index.php
supposed to be easy for newbies, but I have no experience with it.
Hope this was helpful,
Regards

Are you trying to burn a back-up DVD or to a CD (i.e., VCD)? To burn a back-up DVD you can use Shrink and Decrypter, two free programs -- see the guides at the top of the page or reply for more help & please be as specific as possible with your questions.
