Image size is bigger than the VIDEO_TS !!!

[hrg27]

Hi
I used the guide to copy God Father to 2 DVDs. Within the IfoEdit I loaded all 3 ifo files and clicked "Get VTS sector" to modify the pointers, according to the guide. I also checked the two directories with WinDVD and they were playing fine.
Now I want to make an image using Classic ImageTool 0.9.
It runs fine upto 47% and the size of the image is exactly the same as it is supposed to be, then the progress bar stops at 47% and then a severe hard disk activity starts and the size of images becomes equal to the original DVD :confused:
I mounted the huge image and played it in WinDVD but it only contains the half of the DVD not the all :confused: :confused:
I also searched the forum but this was the ONLY (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?threadid=51620 ) thing I could find which did not help much.

Has anyone had this problem ?
Can I just dump the folders into my DVD burner software without creating image ?

Any input is appreciated
Thanks

Can I just dump the folders into my DVD burner software without creating image ?

It's OK to dump a working VIDEO_TS in your burning program. You don't have to go via an image.

So, it does not need to have a specific structure or format. If my VIDEO_TS is working I can just copy the directory to the DVD as if I am creating a new folder in my hard disk, right ?

I remember everybody that Doom9 has tons of guide on everything and this is a wonderfull database for us. Please use it.

Do not forget to do a Get VTS sector before with Ifoedit or ifoupdate if you modified generated files.

Thanks for posting your comment. Actually the link the you have mentioned is not working right now. On the other hand I did not have any problem before with burning and also as I mentioned in my first post, I had used Get VTS Sector.
So it was quite surprising :confused: to me why this time I had the problem.
I could get rid of the problem by using the other ImageTool (the one that you have to make a drive letter and stuff).
