Question Posted Friday April 10 2009, 7:30 pm

It's me again. I'm the individual who asked how to burn a torrent to DVD using a Macintosh. While your advice was fine there is no way my machine will burn the file to a DVD. I have no idea what's wrong.

The DVD I have says 120 Mins. However, that same DVD allows me to record 8 hrs of TV. The file is 2 hrs and 48 mins. It's a copy of the 2009 Indycar season opener. I had to join an underground torrent group for autoracing to get it. All I can do is watch it in Itunes.

My next question for you might be easier. I'm not looking to do anything illegal but wanted to know if I can pick up VERSUS over the Internet or not. In Canada the cable company is blocking it and live airings of my races. It's pissing me off as my family refuses to change to satellite over the cable company.

The amount of video you can put on a DVD depends on the quality of the video. 120 minutes is perfect quality, 8 hours is very poor quality. I believe that SmallDVD adjusts the quality so that it will fit on the DVD with the best quality possible.

How big is the ISO file SmallDVD created? DVDs can hold 4.7GB. If it's bigger than that, you need to split it. What happens when you try to burn the ISO to the DVD with Disk Utility?

There is no VERSUS stream available that I could find. Sorry.
