Dvd 4.38 - Club CDFreaks

markybhoy · 17-02-2003

I have used decrypter to rip dog soldiers to my hard drive the ran it through dvd2one but the output file is 4.38 gig.

I only selected the main movie and the main sound (only one avaliable) no subtitles, main angle only, but as I say it has came out to 4.38 gig.

Is there anyway to overburn the disc to accomadate the size?

Cheers

????

4.38 is a correct size for a dvd-r
no need for overburn

i use instant dvd to make backup and had the same problem but if you look at the size of the files in bytes its just under that of a blank dvd think the blank one was 4,707,574,000 and dog soldiers is 4,705,768,978 and instant dvd ask to put bigger disc in had 3 options retry,canel,ignore just chose ignore and it burnt it ok

open the title set's IFO file in IFOedit and run the "check dvd size" function from the top drop-downs.
it will tell you if it's under/over.

I was using nero to copy it and it just ejected the disc due to it being 4.38, i think it has to be 4.37 to be ok.

Anyway I put the 4.38 gig back through DVD2One and it reduced to 4.36 gig so I am off and running again.

Cheers for all the replies.

This is really very interesting. I would not have thought of putting the files back through DVD2one again. I would like to know if this works for all oversized first tries. If so, it will be an easy fix for so many that have had this problem.
