    when i make an ISO of a DVD with DVD Decrypter, i get like a 7 gig file, why is that? Since DVDs are only 4.7 gigs, does this mean i cant burn that ISO on a DVD-R with my DVD burner?

    Single layer DVDs are 4.7gb (or so) but the majority of current commercial DVDs are dual-layer which is 9gb (or so).

    Spend more time reading up on the guides; spend an afternoon reading them over and over on this site and on DOOM9's site. You'll get a much better understanding then.

    Thank you for explaining it for me. Can i buy those kinds (commercial) of DVDs and burn them with an ordinary DVD burner?

    No you can't buy those DVD's. U can only buy 4.7 gig.


    You can use DVD Decrypter or Smart Ripper to demux the main movie. Most main movies with 1 audio track (or 2) comfortablly fit one a 4.7 gig disk. No extras though.
