Hi. I recently created an ISO file of Tiberium Wars which was a memory of 7.3gb.

I tried creating an ISO and Compressing it with DVD Shrink but it wouldn't open the game disc.

So I had to use DVD Decrypter, unfortunately it does not compress it to 4.5 gb, so I can't put it on a DVD-R

Please recommend a software/method that can create and compress a pc game iso/ just compress it, from the usual DVD9 (in above case 7.3gb) to DVD5(for DVD-R 4.5gb)

Yet allow me to be able to play the game off this compressed ISO, once written to disc.

Thanks.

Moved to appropriate forum.

AFAIK games are not like movies and cannot be compressed, they should be left in their original state....I could be wrong though, but now this thread is a forum where the correct answer should soon follow.
