I have an iso that's 4.66 megs in size and Nero complains it's too big to burn. I believe I can over ride the warning by changing the settings in Nero, but will it burn ok? Will I need a dual layer to make this work or does burning an .iso cause it to decompress or something?

you might be able to make it smaller, depending what it is.
Yes, sorry, gigs. Brain Fart. I just don't know how burning from an iso works. I know in the past I've used compression software to fit dual layer sized movies onto a regular dvd, but if iso's are meant to expand when burned, and I use compression on it, what in the world would that do? I suppose if I just try it, I'm just out a dvd, but I hate to throw them away.

Use DvdShrink- if it's in ISO form on your computer, click on open disc image or mount in a virtual drive and open disc. Shrink as usual.
