i thought an iso file was a program file, maybe software or a game. you obviously downloaded it. how many mb's is it? i've had alot of games download as an iso, but i've never seen a movie with that file extension.

I like Shrink. I know some people have gotten that error with DVD's that show up with "unreferenced material". If this is the case, make sure you change the settings so that the "unreferenced material" is not compressed at all.

And VLC Media Player can play .iso without a problem.

the way u burn a dvd, or at least the way i did it was convert the dvd to a .iso, then burned it to a dvd...an iso can be a bootable disk, game or video

one of the guys from afterdawn said that dvd-shrink should burn it to be playable on a stand alone dvd player. bs player should play it on your computer as an iso. nero and roxio can do it also i guess. most things i burn start out as .avi or mpeg 1,2, or 4 converted to .vob, then burned. pc media players play all those files, but most stand alone dvd players read only .vob. some will read vcd's (mpeg), but not many.

vso divx to dvd is a free program converts almost any file to a format that is burnable and compatible on any home dvd player. these files will be very large, 4g or so, so it's not practical for storing and watching on your pc. you cannot burn compressed movie files and expect them to play on home dvd players. some will, but not many. no compressed file will play on the gaming units, ps2 xbox, etc. dvd-r's are too expensive to waste experimenting too much.

an iso is not a compressed movie. avi's and mpeg's are.
