I have a 2.25 hour EyeTV file, that I export to Toast. Then, I place it in Popcorn 3 (which is supposed to compress the video to fit on a 4.7g DVD-R). I get this message:
"The DVD-R requires 4.43g of space and you only have 4.38g avaiable"/
What do I do to solve this issue?????
Try StreamFab Downloader and download from Netflix, Amazon, Youtube! Or Try DVDFab and copy Blu-rays! or rip iTunes movies!

Your Computer Specs say you are running Panther, is Popcorn 3 compatible with Panther?
System Requirements for Popcorn 3
* Macintosh computer with PowerPC G4, G5, or Intel® processor
* Mac OS X v10.4.10 or higher
* 300 MB of free disk space to install

Did you update Popcorn to 3.0.2?
It supposed to fix:
Popcorn 3.0.2:

- Should no longer receive error 1634955892 when using physical DVD source
- Exporting from DVD source should longer cause error –43 or -206
- Resolves issue where exporting to 3G format would generate an error message
- Resolves synchronization issue experienced when using 24fps H.264 content
- Resolves issue where disabling Fit-To-DVD compression generated -50 error
- Resolves issue where Fit-to-DVD video compression calculation was incorrect
- Resolves issue with black frames appearing in video after conversion
- TiVo recordings created after TiVo’s Fall 2007 DVR update will no longer cause the application to hang during encoding
Toast Video Player v1.0.2:
- TiVo HD recordings now play back at correct speed -
At the risk of sounding condescending, have you put a check in the box that says something like "Use Fit to DVD Compression" which is in the bottom left hand corner of the main Popcorn window ?

Popcorn only does the compression after the video has been authored into a VIDEO_TS folder. So what you need to do is first choose Save as Disc Image from the File menu. When that is done select the disc image using the Image File setting in the Copy window. Now when you go to burn the DVD Popcorn will do the compression before burning the disc.

Have you tried the Roxio Popcorn forum ? All I can suggest is maybe trying another of EyeTV's export options, maybe the program stream one and have Toast make a DVD from that.
Come to think of it, why do you need to go through Popcorn, I thought Toast itself was capable of requantising or whatever the compression process is called. -
I like having both Toast 8 and Popcorn 3. Popcorn is my preference when doing the projects that it is designed to do. It is better than Toast at some of those tasks and identical at others. Toast, of course, does many other things plus has a few video features not in Popcorn.
