babimemp Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 I am burning an ISO file to DVD. img burn says not near enough disc space on my DVD R. I don't have this problem with DVD Shrink. What gives and how do I accommodate?

mmalves Posted July 6, 2008 Share Posted July 6, 2008 If my crystall ball is correct, you're probably trying to burn an ISO image intended to be burned on a dual-layer disc, which holds up to 8,547,991,552 bytes. You can either use DVD Shrink to shrink that image to fit a common 4.7GB blank disc, or you could buy a Verbatim DVD+R DL 2.4x MKM-001-00 Made in Singapore blank disc and burn that ISO image as it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your file is bigger than 4.38 gb then it has to be compressed to that size or less for imgburn to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
