jard Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 (edited) I'm copying movies onto a HD (TVisto) to watch on the TV and would like to reduce some of the size of the movies to about 4 GB. Many of the movies now out there are on DL and are around 8 GB. Is there a way to make an ISO that is limited in size? Edited April 13, 2007 by jard
mmalves Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 An ISO image is an exact representation of a disc, byte by byte, so, it can't be compressed. What you can do is: rip the original DVD9 to HD (we don't offer help with this step so please don't ask) use a program like DVD Shrink, Nero Recode (best option), DVD Flick, etc. to compress/re-author the DVD9 to DVD5 (4.38GB or less) size (use high-quality/2pass mode for better results) all the mentioned programs can output directly to an ISO image if I recall correctly TVisto even supports NTFS, now that's a nice addition. I wish I could have one By the way, if you need help with the compress/re-author step VideoHelp.com has lots of guides about it.
