• 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.

Iam sorry if iam not doing this in the right spot. i have had some issues burning and i cant seem to figure out what i am doing wrong. i have sevral movies that i have already ripped on my external harddrive. When i go to put them in toast the go over fine. The little green line in toast goes up depending on the size of the file. I hit the red button to record, it tells me the file is to big for my disc(dvd-r 4.7gb). So i get the info off the file and it will tell me that the file is just say 1.6gb. Why wont this burn on to a 4.7gb disc.? It is not telling me that it is copyrighted or anything. if anyone could tell me there procuders on how they personely do this it will help alot
