  1. So, using mac the ripper, I extracted the full disc which came out to 7+ GB. Loaded up dvd2onex, set the proper parameters (disc copy, 4444MB) and processed it.

    I keep getting files that are 4.5GB. Throw them in toast and it says there aren't enough sectors. I then lowered the total GB in dvd2onex to 4333, then 4111, still the same things happen.

    I've used this process before with NO FAIL. Has anyone encountered this before? I recently switched from Ritek to Verbatim discs, could this be it? Somehow I doubt it.

    If anyone can help it'd be awesome.

    Yeah, every now and again the default size file will not burn. On the same brand media even. I have no idea why.

    The problem may be the disk is too large to compress to 4.37GB. Did you delete any audio streams to make it smaller before trancoding?
    This is not uncommon with DVD Shrink in the PC world.
    Any trancoder has a limit on how much it can compress the video stream.

    Re-process the VIDEO_TS output from DTOX with DTOX again.

    As live4ever says, running it through dvd2onex a second time will get you the size you want. DVD2OneX seems to have a built-in limit for how far you can compress. We noticed this on this board when we had alittle experiment to see if we could compress Terminator 3 to fit on 2 CD-Rs.
