• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Your Mac's Specs
Mac Pro Dual 2.8 Quad Core 8gb Ram. ATI Radeon HD 2600 OSX 10.5.6
Running a G5 Mac Pro 2.8 quad with 8gb ram. Imported a 98 min mov file into iMovie 8.0.6. Added audio tracks and one photo, divided into 17 chapters. Shared with iDvd 7.0.4 but once imported/encoded in iDvd I get a message that my project is to big and to change the encoding setting. This I do in project/project info. Reduced it to professional quality which will fit happily onto a single sided disc. It tells me that I need to re encode but I cannot find anywhere in iDvd to action this. I try to burn and it warns me that there were warnings during project validation and I need to fix them before burning. Anyone know how? Tried burning anyway and it fails with a multiplexing error. I also tried creating a disc image which works and ironically the files are small enough to fit on a single sided DVD. Go figure.:Shouting:
