    I have downloaded several torrents from a site that has legal torrents for Who fans(www.longliverock.org). Never had an issue. The DVD's burned with the menus etc.

    I just downloaded a compiliation and when I tried to burn it I get a message telling me that it needs a DVD-9. It should not need a DVD-9 as the file size is 4.18 GB.

    The other issue I ran into was that when I tried to allow for lower quality settings so it would fit onto a regular DVD Nero wanted to use its' own menus rather than the menu that was downloaded in the torrent. So it would show 1.VTS 01 etc.

    Now sure what I am doing wrong. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    If the file is already only 4 gigs then just burn the image using Nero Burning Rom.

    When you say image are you referring to an iso?
    What I have is a folder with vts, vob files etc.

    Yes, that is what I meant (too much time in the Shrink forum dealing with ISO's), open the VIDEO_TS folder (full of VOB's etc.) and burn them with Nero burning rom.

    Sorry but I'm a bit of a neophyte with this program. I tried to
    burn the image as you suggested but couldn't get to the right screen.

    I opened up Nero with Smart Start and chose Nero Burning Rom from
    the list of apps. It then opens up a dialog box titled
    New Compiliation. I clicked on all the DVD options in the lefthand
    sidebar but could not find an option for Burn Image within any of
    the associated options.

    So I closed out the New Compilation box and went to Recorder>Burn Image. Thought I had it here but when I opened up the VTS folder
    it didn't show any of the files so I changed the file types to
    All Files. I tried to select all of these files but I was only
    able to highlight single files.

    I followed the directions in the guide. Where I run into
    trouble is after returning to the Multisession window from
    the burn tab.

    At this point I selected Start Multisession Disc
    as shown. And then when I select Open I do not get the dialog
    box that is shown in the guide. I get a smaller box titled
    Open. The file type is All Supported Compilations and Images;
    but it does not show any files. I again changed it to all files
    which shows the files but does not allow me to select more than
    just one.

    I know I'm missing something. I really appreciate
    your help. I am using -R and Nero ver. 6.6.1.4.

    Try holding down your ctrl key on the keyboard to select multiple files...you will want everything in the folder into your burn cue.

    I tried doing that but it will only allow me to select one
    file. I cannot select multiple files.

    You may need to use Express to get files burned. Don't start with Burning Rom, import the files into Express and try burning them that way.
