i have already tried nero (awesome for cds - dont have a version that burns dvds), power dvd 5, dvd x platinum (will only make copies no new dvds), adobe encore dvd (complicated beyond belief and has strigent resolution demands) the only one that came close was sonic mydvd - which had the create menus and easy burning but wont fit compress data so a 124 minute movie can fit into a regular 4.7gb dvd. also none of these programs seem to brun data. anyone know of a good dvd program, maybe one that allows more than 120 minutes to be burned.

p.s also does anyone know if i burn xvid movies on dvds - do they play on lets say a ps2 like regular movies - is there a way?

much thanks

cloneDVD ( the one by elby) but you have to use anyDVD or DVDshrink with it.

if you still have nero you can use dvdshrink and nero to do what you want to do.
