    Need help burning to DVD

    i have recorded a 2 hour show with my ATI All in Wonder Pro 9800 and i was able to cut it to 1.5 hours after cutting comercials. but it still says the file is to large to fit on a DVD. can someone help me fit this on a dvd? im trying to use MY DVD or Roxio. by the way if i cut the record quality down then it wont let me use the file. it has to be set to dvd quality for you to burn it i guess. i need help!!!!!! is there some other software that would allow me to burn at a different quality or something? im lost!!!!

    If you've already created a FULL set of required DVD files (.IFOs, .BUPs, .VOBs) on your hard drive, you can use DVD Shrink to compress them to fit on one DVD.

          You can download DVD Shrink from the official site at:

          DVD Shrink is a free and user-friendly dvd backup tool, enabling you to make backup copies of your DVDs to a single DVD±R/RW or Dual-Layer DVD+R. DVDs too big to fit on a DVD±R can be edited and/or compressed. DVDShrink.info does not condone the copying of DVDs in countries where it is illegal.

                      1) Contact the website from which you purchased this commercial software

                      2) Why would you have to make more than one case?

                      3) I guess this means you chose not to bother obtaining (FREEWARE) DVD Shrink?

                        because the dvd is rented so i cant scan the case cuz it doesnt come with it. this is a seperate issue than i originally posted so i dont think shrink really matters here but i just wanted to see if you guys knew. what do you mean contact the website?

                            Discussing anything to do with copying media you don't own is against the rules of this forum...
