Hello celticbhoy.

4.40GB should easily fit onto a dvd-r.

Did Xpress tell you why it couldn't write to the disc?
Have you try burning the files generated by Xpress with another program (Nero, RecordNow, CopytoDVD,...)?

[celticbhoy]

i have noticed that a lot of dvd-r can only 4.38GB and yes i have tryed burning the files generated by Xpress with nero and it still says its too big.

She is right
Take it back and use DVD Shrink or buy Nero with Recode2 !

dont get me wrong i think it is a great peice of software and very fast its just this message that is appearing when its tring to burn final destination 2. but as we speak i am on afterdawn and i am speaking to a techie and i have put a poll on the post and if we get more people with the problem than without it we are all going to complain until we either get a fre update to platinum or a patch for xpress because i relly like xpress

IF YOU HAVE DVD X COPY PLATINUM YPU CAN REMOVE UNWANTED SUBTITLES & SOUND TRACKS TO MAKE THE MOVIE FIT CHECK THE COMPRESSION IN THE SECOND MENU AFTER YOU HAVE SELECTED THE TITLES IN THE FIRST MENU
I HAVE DVD X COPY PLATINUM AND HAVE NO PROBLEMS
IF OU HAVE PROBLEMS THEN USE DVD SHRINK AND BURN WITH NERO

[celticbhoy]

it does the main movie ok though it just sometimes struggles doing the full disc and i have only had it with 1 disc and thats final destination 2. but what i cant get round is it says it can compress a dvd to a dvd-r in just one click. when it compresed it to 4.40GB what is the actual size of a dvd-r?? anyone? people have tld me its 4.7GB then 4.50GB then 4.38GB what is it?

THE PROBLEM YOU SEEM TO BE FINDING HARD TO GRASP IS DVD9 DISC WHICH ARE DUEL LAYER DISC & DVDR DISC ARE SINGLE LAYER SO TO FIT THE DATA FROM DVD9 DISC TO DVDR DISC IT MUST BE COMPRESSED IF YOU WANT ALL THE EXTRA FEATURES I DOUBT IF THERE IS ANY FAULT WITH YOUR DVD X COPY EXPRESS BUT WHICH VERSION DO YOU HAVE
I HAVE HEARD THAT DVD X COPY EXPRESS CAN BE A PROBLEM BUT I HAD THAT VERSION AND HAD NO PROBLEMS BUT I THEN LATER UPGRADED TO THE PLATINUM VERSION WHICH ALSO INCLUDED THE DVD X COPY EXPRESS FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT TO JUST CLICK AND COMPRESS THE FULL MOVIE + EXTRAS
YOU SEE YOUR VERSION MAY NOT LAT YOU SELECT WHICH TITLES & CHAPTERS & SUBTITLES & SOUNDTACK YOU WANT ON YOUR FINAL DVD
MY ADVICE WOULD BE IF YOU CANT SELECT THESE OPTIONS THEN USE DVD SHRINK WHICH IS A FREEWARE ALSO USE NERO TO BURN YOUR FINAL DISC TRY THE GUIDES ON THIS SITE FOR MORE INFO
HOPE THIS HELPS

DVDXCopy platinum does not let you remove audio tracks and or subtitles. The only way it will let you is to run in simple mode and then do movie only. You cannot remove unwanted audio or subtitles in full DVD mode....and even then You can only select one audio track and 1 subtitle.
