That works. Is there a good application that you can use to view & edit
a DVD so that it can be written out to a smaller iso?

Example: I have & own several commercial DVD's. But with all the added
stuff that are on them, they end up being about 7.5Gb. I'd like to be
able to extract only the main movie which I suspect is only about 4G and
save to a 4.5G DVD. Disclaimer: I don't pirate, copy illegally etc., but
I'd like to make legal backups to smaller 4.5G DVDs for my own library &
archive the originals.
