Oversized Dvd-rip?!
« on: October 20, 2002, 04:10:00 PM »

Question: Why is my rip oversized?!

Answer: Relax smile.gif Open up your favourite burning application (such as nero, fireburner, cdrwin) and check the time that it will use on a CD. This is what you should be looking at, not the file size of the image. If the time that the image will use is less than what your media can hold then great, go ahead and burn smile.gif

Explanation: An image not only contains the info that will be written on the media, but also other information such as how to burn it, thus increasing the size of the image. Always check the time before burning just to be on the safe side, but most programs will warn you if something wont fit on the media smile.gif
