• 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.

My computer is an iMac 2.7 with 12gb of memory. Burning with Toast 10. Burner is a brand new Blu ray external from Other World Computing. It's a Pioneer. I am using Memorex 25gb 4x disc. It takes all day for the encoding and then I get the message that there is not enough room. I have tried this several time. Thanks for your help

Actually, what's PROBABLY happening is that your boot drive is running out of temporary storage space while its doing the encoding. For a project like that I'd expect you'd need *at least* 50GB free, probably a huge amount more.
