It said it was too big to put on a regular DVD of 4.7 GB and the iLife is 6.2 GB. I tried using Popcorn to compress it but it didnt recognize it.

I used the disk utility image to burn and it gave me the above error message of being to big. It said I could delete some folders, but I couldnt open it to show me all of the folders in the DVd. If push come to shove, I dont plan to use for now the iWeb feature .

Any ideas to do a backup ?

popcorn can only compress video. it decreases the quality of the video until the filesize will fit.

I think the only way of backing up iLife is with a DL disc
