    Hey I am new to this forum and fairly new to burning video onto dvd-r. I have this concert footage on my computer I want to burn to a dvd-r. It is 3 discs. They are all in the separate folders, containing the video_ts folder which has all of the .vob files. Disc 1 and 2 were 4.2gb and I was able to burn them fine. I use ConvertXtoDVD to burn existing project, find the folder, put in a dvd-r, click burn, and it works fine. The problem I have run into is with the 3rd disc which is 6.97gb. It kept spitting out my dvd-r asking me to insert blank media. I finally figured out it won't fit, it is a DVD-9? I read in some of the guides on here that there are a few programs to use for DVD-9 disc to DVD-r, but nothing specific about DVD-9 folder to DVD-r. From what I understand this is possible. Can anyone give me any help, or refer me to a program with this capability? The help would certainly be appreciated. Thank you!

    Hi,


    dvd shrink is your answer. Use the open files button, find files and then backup.Dvd shrink is free and available here.

    Hope this helps
