I was wondering why when I try to back up a copy of one of my DVD's using anydvd ripper and Nero Recode that it prompts me for a DVD DL even though the quality level is listed as at least 80% or higher. This only happens when I do the recode entire DVD and not the main movie option. Here is the information I get when I import the DVD information into Recode: There are times I want to keep all info from the origianl disc...

Menus: Duration-10:09 min 109mb,80.2 video quality
Main Movie: 1:28.00 Min,3535MB,100% video quality
Extras: 00:37.23 Min, 956MB, 81.6 video quality


Thanks in advance, Paul

That's more like it regarding the adding size of files..lol.. good thing my reply failed,yeah ok pretty obvious the moment you said 80% compression,unless it's a really small dvd you would need at least between 50-70%,the max you can go to is 4475 unless you overburn,you have far too much data,if you want to keep a full dvd use no compression & get dvdfab & split it over two 4.5 dvd's

EDIT: Use menu shrink on the menus after ripping,it dumps the bollocky animation & can fix navigation of the dvd when it shows fbi warnings etc,i've noticed some dvd's won't go past it for some reason

Where do I find the menu shrink at in the recode window itself? Thanks for the information, I just thought that I was doing something wrong because I never had this problem in the past just seemed to notice it recently. But the DVD's that I have the problems with are TV series that have multiple episodes on them and more data.
