Hi all.

I have a DVD that i want to back up. I tryed DVDXCopy it sead that it needed to use 2 DVD's for the film. As i only want to used one disk i want to ask is there a way i could make the film a bit smoller so its not as big. As far as i can see the film is over 5 gigs and there are same addons 2. So if there is a good way of doing this can u plz let me know.

And if any one know where i can get good DVD-R's for not a lot plz let me know. The ones i get now are from PC World and they cost me 5 for £20 (This is in UK).
