I was trying to burn a movie that I stripped down to about 4.5gb on a verbatim 4.7gb dvd+r. Nero 5.5 says that there's only 4.48gb available on the disc. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I believe that your video file to be burned has to be 4.3G or less to fit on blank media.

The 4.7GB is called "Japanese gigabytes" and actually the DVD can contain appx. 4,700,000,000 bytes (which is in deed only 4.36GB, since kilobyte == 1024 bytes, megabyte == 1024 kilobytes, gigabyte == 1024 megabytes).

It's all about marketing :-)

if dvdx copy won't do it for u, then try dvd2one. it certainly will. we're stuck with 4.36 gigs. i can use ifoedit without any difficulty but when i tried vobedit, i got lost. it doesn't come with any instructions. vobedit is probably what you need to get rid of the credits at the end of the movie. mike
