DVD9 Iso to DVD5 question

[winman42]

I have DVD9 iso file, and want to convert it to DVD5 size. Is there a way to convert this without burning to
DVD9, then ripping to TS folder, then compressing/converting?

thanks,

Win

several ways. dvdshrink will open and use iso files. winrar can extract the folders and isobuster can also.

thanks again.

In addition to DVD Shrink, another free program that can extract an ISO to files is 7zip

Thanks for that about 7-Zip, louv68. I use it all the time and I hadn't noticed it could extract ISO files. Guess I should RTFM more often.

I also would suggest Shrink for a quick and easy backup to DVD-5. If you want more quality, DVD Rebuilder is also a option. I don't know if it can open ISOs directly, though, and it will take a fair amount longer. But it's a good choice for longer videos that may lose too much quality with Shrink.
